Having to ID ones self is customary when the issue is... "are you an American citizen". No reason not to, just like for voting.

The mouth breathers will come back with well hand guns kill the most. Yes they kill the most in BAD, usually ghetto neighborhoods.

These mass shootings are in nice areas where you don't expect any kind of crime of that magnitude. That's the difference.

The AR-15 especially is the gun because you can mow down so many more people.

Australia hasnt had a mass shooting since their ban
Wrong on pretty much everything you've stated.

I have to wonder if people are really serious, that talk like that about AR15s? Surely they are joking...right?


The next thing they will be saying is, the AR15 was created by the DEVIL himself!! LOL

Of course. With Democrats it's only about scoring points around getting re-elected above all. Whether that be demonizing the one guy, trying to make him out as a White Supremist, compared to the 2nd guy, not mentioning he was a Trump hating Islamist probably bent on killing white people

I'm sue he won't open it so hear is what is says, "Although mass public shootings account for only 0.1 percent of the total firearm-related mortality between 2000 and 2014".


Don't know if there is connection but, "Timonium" is a place on the border of NW Baltimore.

Kinda' explains a lot about his posts!

Only Citizens can vote. Citizens are granted privileges from their master government, not rights.
People have rights. It is not We The Citizens... and yes, the founders knew the difference, as citizen and person is used in the same sentence, in Articles 2 & 3.

Quote:
"CITIZEN - ... Citizens are members of a political community who, in their associative capacity, have established or submitted themselves to the dominion of government for the promotion of the general welfare and the protection of their individual as well as collective privilege. "
- - - Black's Law Dictionary, Sixth Ed. p.244

"... the term 'citizen,' in the United States, is analogous to the term "subject" in the common law; the change of phrase has resulted from the change in government. ... he who before was a "subject of the King" is now a citizen of the State."
- - - State v. Manuel, 20 N.C. 144 (1838)


Voting is not a right of all people. It is a privilege, only citizens are privileged to.
