Bottom line: banning guns isn't making us safer. Arming wanna-bes with concealed carry permits isn't making us safer. I'd rather work on why people are committing crime and why these men feel so insecure. Let's work through that before you shoot up a train.


“I'd rather work on why people are committing crime and why these men feel so insecure.”

They commit crimes because they’re criminals. They belong to a subculture that treats laws as optional and puts personal perceived gain at the top of the list of motives for their (often impulsive) behavior. Like or hate “broken windows” policing, it showed that the same people committing serious, violent crimes are also the one evading subway fares and ignoring other small laws that contribute to an orderly society. There are lots of reasons for criminal behavior, but I really don’t buy in to the premise that “feeling insecure” is one of them.

I’ve been shot at, and I’ve shot (and almost certainly killed) other men, at the behest of the US Govt. And you are particularly incorrect in the bolded portion, as well as in some of your other assertions. In my experience, people revert to training in those situations, and they function accordingly. They do not piss themselves.


You think that classroom training plus 2 hours of range time is sufficient? Because that's the requirement.

Let's talk about the majority of CCP holders, or even the average. Because that's who is going to react poorly and make things even worse.


DP

I’d say I’m “an average” permit holder.

I’m confused as to why you seem to think that “the average” CCWP holder only has 2 hours of range time? Do you not realize that “the average” CCP holder goes to a range many, many times annually? I shoot at least once a month locally, and sometimes every other weekend if we’re at our weekend place. I know lots of “average” people with permits, and nearly all of them practice at least monthly.

Why do you think that they’ve only been on a range 2 hours in their lives?


Bizarre.

As long as the Second Amendment guys pay the fare, let them police the Metro fare jumpers

I’m confused as to why allowing people who are known non-criminals who have gone to the considerable trouble/training of acquiring a permit to legally carry a gun makes you frightened. Because frankly, it doesn’t make any sense. The people most likely to rob/assault/shoot you are already carrying their guns on the train/bus with you right now. Like RIGHT NOW.

The people LEAST likely to rob/assault/shoot you are the ones you feel you should fear the most?


Apply some critical thinking here.



Training? Joe Sixpack Chucklef**k can go buy a gun on credit. And according to MAGA federal judge in NY he has a right to carry that weapon into a daycare or virtually anywhere else other than a courthouse (of course) or givernment building thanks to the radical historical revisionism of Scalia and Thomas. So much for critical thinking, huh?


You genuinely haven’t got the slightest idea what you’re talking about.

What difference does it make if people buy their firearms on credit? Are lower income people not entitled to self defense? The judge in NY properly saw through the State’s attempt to end run a binding Supreme Court ruling. The whole “sensitive places” argument is a dodge. Businesses can already eject anyone for any reason or no reason at all. And I hate to break it to you, but tons of guns have long gone in and out of NY day cares every day, on the hips of their law enforcement clientele and the powerful, privileged, politically connected few who were the only ones who, until recently, could get carry permits in New York. Before Bruen, half the States were shall issue and there was no glut of toddlers maiming each other with firearms at day care.

As for “radical historical revisionism,” that’s precisely what Bruen got rid of. Even the briefest research will establish that Bruen is wholly in accord with the intent of the Framers.

Your juvenile name calling and uninformed and/or dishonest exaggerations really expose your irrational, unreasoned, emotionally reactive non-logic.


+1. But you are wasting your breath. There is a vocal, but quite irrational, group of DCUM posters that aren't just pro-gun control; they absolutely HATE gun owners.


Hate is an understatement. There are multiple posters here who say things like “I hope the gun owners resist when we send federal agents to seize their guns so that they are shot and killed”. Absolutely miserable bunch of people. Warms my heart watching them take L after L in the courts.


the forum moderator is a big anti gun person and constantly censors any speech he doesn't like.


Which has always struck me as odd. Because he is the last person who should favor a world where “might makes right”, and weaker, smaller statured people are at the mercy of larger, physically stronger ones. Weapons are an equalizer, eliminating the advantage that size and brute physical strength give would-be assailants.

I don’t get why anyone would be anti self defense. That’s what anti gunners are, they’re fine with armed criminals but if a normal citizen wants to protect themselves it’s an outrage. These people are moronic.
