[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another night and another shooting in NW.
Will there be an end?[/quote]

Send us the background on the shooter and victim please. Let’s start a catalog and focus on the shooters and not the tool. [/quote]
There is no mention of any information you asked.  Three were dead and some are in hospital.
According to NBC4, a honda car stopped on the road, gunman started shooting to a crowd.
That was it.
No video, no photo.
Targeted?  Random?    
Better stay home after dark in NW.

Sounds like the victim’s families should be able to bring a massive lawsuit against Honda to force them out of business. One of their cars was used in this crime, so they’re clearly responsible. [/quote]

Cars= necessary tool for living

Guns= only necessary to kill people or animals

Why do we have to trudge through these same stupid arguments over and over again.  They are so trite and third grade level.[/quote]

Cars a necessary tool for living?  No, they are not. Plenty live without one. [b]Weapons were created long before the wheel[/b] and motorized vehicles and have been helping people to live (hunt) and stay alive (protect self, family, tribe) for thousands of years. Try again third grader. [/quote]

No.

That is not an effective argument for guns.  Female genital mutilation also existed before cars.  Nor does anyone want to ban hunting rifles.

You are not some vigilante protecting your home.  Your gun is statistically most likely to kill you or someone you love, not an enemy or intruder.  You are not some brave warrior protecting your castle.  Please, grow up!  [/quote]

[b]There are thousands of defensive firearm uses i[/b]n the United States each year, the vast majority not requiring the firing of a single shot, and most unreported for that reason. The  trite truism you parrot about risky to gun owners ignores that. Firearms are the single effective means for a weak victim to defend against a powerful aggressor. Whether to own a fires got self defense is a private decision. Criminal misuse of firearms is the subject of numerous laws, and if criminals who misused firearms went away for a good long time, it would be a certainty that they would not be misusing any more firearms during that interval.

Really?  Can you give us the source for that?[/quote]

Do your own research if you think I’m wrong. [/quote]

Ok so I’ll take that as confirmation you are talking out of your you-know-what.[/quote]
