But he was a CCW holder. One of the "good guys". Starboard Tack May 2014 #5

In a comic-book world, it couldn't. Straw Man May 2014 #6

Yep, very nuanced! Starboard Tack May 2014 #11

Anything constructive to add? blueridge3210 May 2014 #13

Apparently not. Straw Man May 2014 #17

Yeah. blueridge3210 May 2014 #18

A Jr. High level! Really? Starboard Tack May 2014 #22

Yes, a Jr. High level. blueridge3210 May 2014 #25

Please explain what those reasons are if not to shoot "bad guys" Starboard Tack May 2014 #28

Welcome to DU Starboard Tack May 2014 #19

Because a human was involved? That would be my guess. hack89 May 2014 #7

A human in a bar waving a gun? A "GOOD GUY" human, you mean Starboard Tack May 2014 #12

Not all gun owners are good guys. That would be impossible hack89 May 2014 #14

And what do "gun owners" have to do with this OP? Starboard Tack May 2014 #21

I understand your frustration hack89 May 2014 #24

I'm not here to solve your problems. I'm here to comment. Starboard Tack May 2014 #30

What kinds of weapons would you restrict and why? nt hack89 May 2014 #33

Not my job. That's for you guys to figure out. Starboard Tack May 2014 #35

We made that decision in 1934 and it has served us well every since. No need to change it. hack89 May 2014 #37

There you go again. Sometimes I wonder if you actually read my posts. Starboard Tack May 2014 #41

Full auto weapons are a red herring hack89 May 2014 #42

And I never said they were a present threat to anyone. Starboard Tack May 2014 #44

So, if they are not a present threat blueridge3210 May 2014 #46

Why is it such a good idea to get rid of them all? Starboard Tack May 2014 #50

Legal concealed carry is not a problem hack89 May 2014 #47

Can you make up your mind? blueridge3210 May 2014 #38

I'm not interested in the details of which weapons you restrict. Starboard Tack May 2014 #40

UK and Australia has more machine gun crime than we do gejohnston May 2014 #43

So, are you OK with every country, or any country having nukes too? Starboard Tack May 2014 #45

Since no one is arguing for everyone to have firearms blueridge3210 May 2014 #48

Did I say anyone was arguing for that? Thought not. Starboard Tack May 2014 #53

What does that have to do with anything? gejohnston May 2014 #49

Yes, and we've been assured over and over again... tosh May 2014 #8

Reading comrehension fail. blueridge3210 May 2014 #9

Beats me. It's a "good guy" thing. Starboard Tack May 2014 #10

Where did you get that "guarantees" bullshit? hack89 May 2014 #15

If all you have is a hammer......(nt) blueridge3210 May 2014 #16

Right, I forgot, it's a "in general CCW holders blah, blah, bullshit" kinda thing Starboard Tack May 2014 #20

This is where you present your data hack89 May 2014 #23

Wrong! This is where we discuss and exchange thoughts and ideas. Starboard Tack May 2014 #27

Do you dispute the fact that CCW permit holders hack89 May 2014 #29

No. There is probably little or no difference. Starboard Tack May 2014 #31

There is a huge difference - we have discussed it here many times. hack89 May 2014 #32

Wrong again. Starboard Tack May 2014 #39

I do think more CCW holders commit more "justifiable homicides" than the general population gejohnston May 2014 #34

Statistics are hard. AtheistCrusader May 2014 #36
