They need to make a list of bombs to ban!
Welcome to the warped "thinking" of Liberalism.


It all makes "sense", however, when you consider their motives - Power and Control over you and society. They don't believe in Liberty or Freedom, but Dependency or Subjugation imposed incrementally.

There are 49 federal gun regulations.
Then with each of the 50 states combined and their specific gun regulations there are 2135 regulations on guns.

So, what you are saying is, we need to ban pressure cookers.

Judging from the events of the last couple days I would say we definetly have a bomb problem. They are more readily made and the ingredients to create a bomb cannot be regulated without basically shutting down all aspects of our society. A bomb can be created from manure for crying out loud. Guns are already regulated.

So we have a bomb epidemic in this country?

Bomb making materials:
fertilizer
diesel fuel
Propane
cotton balls
nitric acid
ball bearings
nails
gasoline
cellulose (wood chips)
etc.
None of the above are regulated, with the possible exception of the nitric acid. It isn't all that difficult to get, though.
To make poison gas, mix common cleaning chemicals; it says right on the label what to NOT mix them with!
It is quite simply impossible to ban or control everything that is deadly!

Guns aren't regulated? Since when?

You can buy a grenade if you pay the tax stamp and pass the background check. You can buy a gun if you pass the background check.
Since the regulations can't be enforced because of conservatives in Congress and their Lords and Masters the NRA. If something is regulated but said regulations aren't enforced then it's not regulated

Neither. Please stop trying to impress upon us that something that kills less than .03% (with half of that being suicides) of the US population a year is a problem. However, if you want to lower deaths...instead of focusing on guns, focus on domestic violence, the failed drug war and mental health treatment, then liberals would have some credibility concerning violence. Otherwise, it look just as it is, liberals hate guns and people owns guns and really give a damn about violence.
