Then a different kid did it. Then two kids were having a "sword" fight with the pins and one of them got smacked so hard in the face her nose started bleeding.

She took away the bowling game.

She has 20 kids in her class, and maybe 5 of them were misusing the toys. But it was safer for everyone for her to remove them. Now, all of the kids complained, I'm sure. That's what children do. They don't understand why sometimes they have to sacrifice their privilege (or as you put it "be punished") because of the actions of a few.

Adults have the ability to understand that concept though.

Privilege? PRIVILEGE??! It's my natural RIGHT, one that's SPECIFICALLY Backed by the US Constitution!

What I dont get are people who are scared of inanimate objects. Yet these same people have no problem driving other inanimate objects that kill more people.

It's horrible , and a shame that society has evil people willing to kill others.

Oh, and more people die from knives and fists per year, than rifles....

Exactly. Milking his campaign donors money is all.

Guns are property, period. If you cant own property or you have to ask permission from some fictional political entity, you're a slave.

Absolutely. I remember right around the Sandy Hook massacre there was a man who stabbed 24 children in China.

It's awful. Violent people will find a way to be violent.

Of course, the difference is that none of the children that were stabbed died. All of the kids that were shot at Sandy Hook did.

Do you feel ex-cons should have their gun rights restored?
