I'm not suprised you'd discriminate like that Just because the founding father's didn't have koalas it doesn't mean they didn't want me to arm them.  They deserve the right to protect themselves.

Quote:

Mr. FARLEY: Well, we don't know exactly what percentage of all the recovered guns in Mexico, where they're coming from. But, you know, a Mexican official that we spoke with said that the percentage of guns confiscated in Mexico probably is closer to the 90 percent figure than the 17. If not, fully 90 percent, probably close to that. He said that almost all of the handguns that are confiscated in Mexico come from the United States. And that amongst the assault weapons, while a good number of them are coming from the United States, they're also - that's more of a mixed bag. And they're coming, as well, through some of the drug routes in Eastern Europe and Africa.

Mexico has the benefit of being our neighbor.  Nearly all the handguns used by criminals in Mexico come from the US, and a large portion of the assault rifles.

Sandy Hook School Principal Dawn Hochsprung told The Bee that a masked man entered the school with a rifle and started shooting multiple shows – more than she could count – that went "on and on."

because IEDs, Car bombs and militants in african nations that shoot and kill
entire villages arent shootings... except that latter is but for some reason
those stat arent added to the shooting stats.


how about a little fact checking

I wonder why mexico made #6, they should be above the US since the cartels
are shooting up everyone, an average of 11,000 gun related murders in 2010
and they banned guns. guns are illegal there so clearly they shouldnt even have the 2000 murders they list

you cant keep blaming the worlds problems on the US, mexico is responsible for
mexico's problems. Obama/Holder had a reason for the gun walking and it wasnt
to track the cartels or to end the war on drugs. it was part of his plan to
start restricting access to guns in the US. if the US wanted to wipe out the
cartels we'd use napalm. we're funding the cartels via the state department

you liberals, none can own up to their shit and they love to lay blame,
wanna keep blaming bush for the impotence of barack obama

amazing that countries with more strict gun laws have more gun murders then a country that has less strict gun laws. If you could give me a link to those statistics I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to defend my innocence as a person without compassion who argues for the purpose of some type of mental acrobatics. Here is what I'm being accused of(by someone who isn't a forum member, as far as I know):

"Oh, it's okay Sasha. When he realizes he was offensively mistaken about my previous experience and my actual student base, he resorted to a completely different line of "logic" (something about prehistoric violence, or some other unrelated topic). Some people don't appear to have any actual emotional investment in the wellbeing of humanity. Their arguments are merely mental gymnastics for them, and comparably sophisticated with rolling around on the floor, where you're trying to explain to them to perform advanced acrobatics. "For the person who is indifferent, his or her neighbor are of no consequence. And therefore, their lives are meaningless. Their hidden or even visible anguish is of no consequence. Indifference then, reduces the other to an abstraction." - More insight from Elie Wiesel."

This is what I got for telling a college graduate who is a psychologist and apparently all his students have some morbid fear of guns because of massacres in other states, that he was wrong that guns are the cause of murder, that intent was the cause of murder. Especially funny considering this guy lives like 10 blocks from where the face eating incident occurred down here. If prisoner #1 could provide me a link showing that countries with stricter gun laws have more murders per capita then the U.S. I'd greatly appreciate it

How is it amazing?

It's the same reason that the Aurora shooter chose a theatre that had banned concealed carry even though the rest allowed concealed carry; or that Newtown had strict concealed carry laws.  Nobody could shoot back
