[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this may sound crazy but I honestly think we should turn part of the empty midwest into a penal colony of sorts. There is nobody out there anyway so why not build a town and essentially fence it off in like Idaho or Montana. Kind of like Australia for the British. They'll have to learn a new way of life but they would not be allowed back out of the state[/quote]

The good and decent people of Idaho and Montana don’t want your violent city criminal trash.

Better idea - fence off DC and let the criminals stay right where they are. You created them.  YOU can deal with them. [/quote]
LOL, yet despite DC trying to ban guns, your outside politicians override that and in effect arm criminals in DC.[/quote]

And yet most places with a lot more guns than DC also have a lot less crime. Which proves that the problem isn’t guns at all. [/quote]
Exactly. Lack of effective consequences certainly increases crime. What is the penalty for stealing a gun? Zip?[/quote]

People carelessly allowing their guns to be stolen are a big part of the crime problem as well.   You idiots think guns prevent crime, yet in some cases your gun makes you the target of crime.

Get it through your heads already:  More guns DOES NOT mean less crime.  On a [i]per-capita[/i] basis, many of those rural areas with high rates of gun ownership have every bit as much and often more crime than DC does.  [/quote]
Liar.[/quote]

It's no lie.  On a per-capita basis, many of the reddest parts of the country, with the highest rates of gun ownership, have more gun homicides and suicides than the rest of the country does.

Not an opinion, it's a fact.  The data PROVES it. 
For anyone to insist otherwise is the lie.[/quote]
