And more people die from old age and heart disease than from guns. So what. Non-sequitors and false equivalencies do not make persuasive arguments.

Well, I've posted about social equity, throughout, Jon. Perhaps you'd like to take a look at the link at 12:47pm

Here's what Police Chiefs have to say about assault weapons:
Quote:
The IACP has been a strong supporter of the assault weapons ban since 1992, and our membership approved a resolution calling for its reauthorization at our 2003 conference. The membership took this action because we, as law enforcement executives, understand that semiautomatic assault weapons pose a grave risk to our officers and the communities they are sworn to protect. http://www.policechiefmagazine.org/magaz......id=92004 |

Thanks for that, Bob.

Sure, Laurie. And thanks for the article you posted. I had to read nearly the whole thing before it dawned on me what you were getting at. But I agree with you about social equity.

In fact, my views on the subject are so radical that I would be laughed out of the Café. I don't own a car, for what it's worth. Regarding the second statement, I would also advise MUCH stricter regulation. It seems to me that you're really caught up in false dichotomies, Jon. |

? I simply prefer to go after problems that plague our culture and not be so distracted by effects/symptoms of those problems - or half baked attempt to treat those problems at further expense.

You disagree, Danny, with the article from Police Chiefs Magazine? What, specifically, is your position on assault weapons?
|
|||||||||
magicalaurie Inner circle Ontario, Canada 2962 Posts |
No, Danny. You seem to have access to the numbers you want to discuss. Why not put them up for us, and get us all on the same page? I'd appreciate it if you'd stop with the accusations.
Thanks, Bob. I know it's a bit of a long read. It's connected to this, which I referred to a way's back: http://www.reliableprosperity.net/ |

Also, Danny- And if you were referring to me, would you please tell me what you perceive my agenda to be? I've already said I support the right to keep and bear arms and, in fact, own two guns myself and have had several others in the past.
Laurie- I missed that link to reliableprosperity.net. Will check it out. |

Lets blame the car instead of the drunk driver then! |

@rowdymagi5: it's not the blame so much as the excitement of assigning blame that's the payoff here.
Not my agenda Laurie. I've posted support for quietly finding out what triggered the wretch and investigating this kind of acting out.
