Right now liberals. After all..its about protecting children and not some warped, ideological, fantasy utopia in your heads about what the world should be like. Pools, cars, and bicycles, hurt kids far more than guns. Call for the ban of those 3 first so that we all can see how looney you are, then I'll listen to you about firearms.
bikes are not a threat to them staying in power, firearms are.
I'll just put this out there: if you keep making guns even more prevalent and easily accessed by anyone and everyone... then get used to more events like today's coming shortly. Mark my words.
We are already the most heavily armed civilian population in the world, right up there with Yemen, and yet all those guns do not seem to be preventing these things...they appear to only be increasing in frequency.
If we have the world's greatest concentration of guns already, then how come we're not safer and already have proportionally lower incidences of gun homicides? Instead, we have the opposite. Riddle me that...
Why, if the gun is the be-all and end-all of defense, does America have among the highest rates of Handgun related deaths on the planet? One would think that, if the guns keep you safe, this would not be so.
Note: Being a gun owner and supporting guns doesn't automatically make one a conservative or a redneck. Instead of being idiotically divisive or making this a left/right issue, let's try to come together and learn from this tragedy. Which add the stabbing tragedy in China has shown, would've happened regardless of gun ownership.
The children in China were only injured, not killed. That's the difference between guns and knives. Get it now? Probably not.
Ahh, the invoking of the infalliable, all-knowing founding fathers. It gets tiring hearing what they were or weren't framed against 21st century issues. But to play along....
Who knows? Maybe being British subjects in 2012 would of lead to a 10x better society than what we have now. Do you know that it wouldn't? I can't tell, my alternate-dimension glasses are broken.
great, then from what you are saying, is that our founding fathers could not know the future and that all Constitutional rights should be null and void. such as free speech, right to bear arms, habeas corpus and all the rest should be null and void.
how quaint of you to not think of everyone else that prefers freedom over slavery.
I thought you said this isn't a courtroom? However terrorism is to induce fear, violence or intimidation to achieve a goal. What that goal was we will never know but I would call this a terrorist attack because it caused fear, violence. Was that the goal? Could be.
You should stick to talking with your own kind. You're embarrassing yourself.
The Twenty-first Amendment (Amendment XXI) to the United States Constitution repealed the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which had mandated nationwide Prohibition on alcohol on January 17, 1920. The Twenty-first amendment was ratified on December 5, 1933.
