Guest Guest Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 The NRA kills people?? Oh my god! That must be during the thousands of gun safety classes they teach. Wow Thanks to the NRA, the more guns there are the more murders there are. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hey stupid! The NRA doesn't make or sell guns. Nor did they have a hand in drafting the 2nd amendment. Duh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 I also believe myself that persons other than police and hunters who carry guns are going out actually looking for trouble,or just not avoiding troubled areas only because they have a gun and feel safe in those bad areas. Dont put yourself in a bad situation and you won't need one. And its one thing to target shoot and hunt animals but it takes alot of nerve and guts to shoot a human being if you had to.Even police go through alot of trauma when that happens and need counciling.So take those guns away.

Guest Guest Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 To think that a person who makes the decision to carry concealed does so intentionally looking for trouble is one of the most ignorant things I have seen here. Mature, law abiding, CCW carriers know they have a lot to lose if they make a mistake. Unlike the criminals and mentally Ill who don't care. Carrying a firearm takes careful decision making, constant concern as to what is going on, if the gun is concealed, if it is secure. They have to deal with the heavy decision of if they can actual take another persons life even to save others. It can have the weight of an anchor but it is a weight they accept to protect themselves, their loved ones, and those around them who can't protect themselves. CCW carriers give up a lot and take on a lot of responsibility and get nothing out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Dicks has suspended rifle sales. I say good for them! This is a true turning point on the issue of guns. A publicly traded company ending sales of a popular item? That speaks volumes during a slow Xmas shopping season. We should all make it a point to spend some $ at Dicks, to say we're behind them.

The average response time across the country is over 5 minutes. They were there in something like 2 minutes. Wasn't fast enough was it? The courts have already established that it is not law enforcements responsibility to protect individuals. The more you post the more surprised I am at what you don't know.

Guest Guest Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Here are some fun facts about guns: 1. No one was ever murdered before they invented them, it was a peaceful world driven only by the desire for all to live equally in harmony. 2. If guns are so bad in the view of our fearless leader, why did he finance a gun running scheme to benefit from them to Mexico? 3. Guns are easily the problem because the general breakdown of morals in our society are independent of any political issue. One more way for big government to stick their fingers where they don't belong. P.S.- The scoundrels who make this tragedy a political opportunity to further their stupid agendas truly are missing the boat on reality alltogether. You're actually pretty sick.

Guest Guest Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 DID YOU KNOW? In one year on average, almost 100,000 people in America are shot or killed with a gun. In one year, 31,593 people died from gun violence and 66,769 people survived gun injuries(National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC)). That includes: 12,179 people murdered and 44,466 people shot in an attack (NCIPC). 18,223 people who killed themselves and 3,031 people who survived a suicide attempt with a gun (NCIPC). 592 people who were killed unintentionally and 18,610 who were shot unintentionally but survived (NCIPC). [*]Over a million people have been killed with guns in the United States since 1968, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy were assassinated (Childrens’ Defense Fund, p. 20). [*]U.S. homicide rates are 6.9 times higher than rates in 22 other populous high-income countries combined, despite similar non-lethal crime and violence rates. The firearm homicide rate in the U.S. is 19.5 times higher (Richardson, p.1). [*]Among 23 populous, high-income countries, 80% of all firearm deaths occurred in the United States (Richardson, p. 1). Gun violence impacts society in countless ways: medical costs, costs of the criminal justice system, security precautions such as metal detectors, and reductions in quality of life because of fear of gun violence. These impacts are estimated to cost U.S. citizens $100 billion annually (Cook, 2000). DID YOU KNOW? Where there are more guns, there are more gun deaths. An estimated 41% of gun-related homicides and 94% of gun-related suicides would not occur under the same circumstances had no guns been present (Wiebe, p. 780). Higher household gun ownership correlates with higher rates of homicides, suicides, andunintentional shootings (Harvard Injury Control Center). Keeping a firearm in the home increases the risk of suicide by a factor of 3 to 5 and increases the risk of suicide with a firearm by a factor of 17 (Kellermann, 1992, p. 467; Wiebe, p. 771). Keeping a firearm in the home increases the risk of homicide by a factor of 3 (Kellermann, 1993, p. 1084). DID YOU KNOW? On the whole, guns are more likely to raise the risk of injury than to confer protection. A gun in the home is 22 times more likely to be used in a completed or attempted suicide (11x),criminal assault or homicide (7x), or unintentional shooting death or injury (4x) than to be used in a self-defense shooting. (Kellermann, 1998, p. 263). Guns are used to intimidate and threaten 4 to 6 times more often than they are used to thwart crime (Hemenway, p. 269). Every year there are only about 200 legally justified self-defense homicides by private citizens (FBI, Expanded Homicide Data, Table 15) compared with over 30,000 gun deaths (NCIPC). A 2009 study found that people in possession of a gun are 4.5 times more likely to be shot in an assault (Branas). DID YOU KNOW? Assaults and suicide attempts with firearms are much more likely to be fatal than those perpetrated with less lethal weapons or means. Removing guns saves lives. There are five times as many deaths from gun assaults as from knife assaults, where the rates of assault with knives and with guns are similar (Zimring, p. 199). More than 90 percent of suicide attempts with a gun are fatal (Miller, 2004, p. 626). In comparison, only 3 percent of attempts with drugs or cutting are fatal (Miller, 2004, p. 626). DID YOU KNOW? Guns can be sold in the United States without a background check to screen out criminals or the mentally ill. It is estimated that over forty percent of gun acquisitions occur in the secondary market. That means that they happen without a Brady background check at a federally licensed dealer (Cook, p. 26). Sales from federal firearm licensees (FFLs) require a background check. Sales between individuals, under federal law, do not require a background check. This means that felons can “lie and buy” at gun shows and other places where guns are readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
