Try again.

And I didn’t say a word about banning transportation. Trains are ok, as long as they are single engine. I like bikes as long as they aren’t black and scary looking. But no more cars!

None. Many of us know that. But the "emoters" won't admit that because they're too emotionally involved in their stance on this. They just simply aren't capable of rational thought.

can't dispute my post, huh?

it's pretty rational; just plain numbers and statistics.

meanwhile, you somehow equate 9/11 with mass SHOOTINGS!

totally irrational!

Guns should be registered to specific owners, not just passed around at swap meets.

Gun insurance should be required.

Guns should have mandated requirements, such as not being assault weapons, for example.
There is no Constitutional Right, which cannot be infringed, to a keep and use a car.

YOU MADE OUR POINT. If guns are not available, people still find ways to kill other people.
proof, please.

in any case, this thread has turned into a gun control issue, not murder in general.

same strawman as bringing up Chicago in response to comparing two STATES.

As set of very stiff laws regulating how people can acquire weapons including shutting down the IRON PIPE LINE.

I did. Chicago has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country. Does absolutely nothing to stop the shooting and deaths every weekend.

Why? Surprisingly enough to you "emoters" ... CRIMINALS DON'T OBEY LAWS. Duh.

Not very difficult...


Conventions draw a lot of people and exhibitors often have a lot of luggage. A bell hop typically handles luggage for guests. Nothing out of the ordinary.
