Two people out of your friends, coworkers, neighbors, family = diversity

Is that right?
Yes, that's all correct.

We already know. We see it every few yeara. Law abiding citizens get hassled farther while the gangbangers still get their $30 throw away guns to do drivebys with. Get rid of the people commiting crime and "gun crime" would be less than switzerland. The problem is our revolving door justice system which is clogged up with petty drug users while violent people get released back to society to commit worse crimes. What we need is CRIMINAL CONTROL!

Not sure i said anything about my neighbors or coworkers. Taking those into consideration, there is plenty of diversity, and i end up in the minority.
Not too many debates happen with neighbors or coworkers. Life goes on pretty much with no issues. So, i guess i'm trying to figure out what kind of point you are trying to make.

no one says you cant have a gun but everyone should be saying that certain guns have no place. there is 0 reason to have the semi automatic guns that can be converted to full auto. people say its not the gun but the person yet i sawly that if this guy was in the same room with only a handgun then 59 people are not dead. from everything i read, these guns were purchased legally but with the amount of guns he had and the amount of ammo, how does that not trigger some type of flag for investigation? i mean...you deposit more than 10000 in the bank and the IRS is notified butsome can amass an arsenal and no one can question it? it makes no sense

Its not a debate, they want to force us to accept a black market for guns, criminalize our abilty to defend ourselves and give would be killers the upper hand.

= = THE LOSS OF ONE LIFE IS ONE TOO MANY = =
WE MUST BAN THE AUTOMOBILE AND SAVE LIVES !!!!
I strongly urge a return to electric traction rail mass transit, urban and interurban, and get that ASSAULT VEHICLE off our streets.
The convenience of the automobile is not worth the loss of ONE LIFE.
Let’s get America BACK ON TRACK.

Oops - wrong post.
My bad.
