    All those gun toting "little Johnnies" are the very same countrymen who the US military recruits it's members from.
    Americans have always shown they will fight when pushed. YMMV

    Yet you think that all those little Johnnies are all going to fight against that same government that they fought for just because that government want to take some of your guns away from you

    No. I'm right. And I ALWAYS are right.
    LOL! My source uses FBI statistics and even links to those stats. I can give you some more recent FBI stats but they paint a worse picture for you and your ilk to consider.
    READ THE NUMBERS that you were presented.
    LOL! (Again!) "It’s not even a part of it any more"? LMFAO!, actually.
    West Indian, Indian, and Pakistani black people? Are all those people lumped in as being black? Do they have the same or even similar culture as the 13% of black people that the U.S. has?
    Skin tone doesn't cut it, Pal. And your numbers are far from adding up.
    Try harder.
    EDIT to add... :roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:

    Always??
    So what you're saying is that the more guns we have everywhere the less likely it is that a suicidal person will decide to commit suicide by killing as many others as he can until somebody kills him (or her, though it seems that women don't do this for some reason, must be those inferior women thought patterns)

    Suicide is often called 'rage directed inward' but it's still rage.

    A lot of people seem to treat these mass shooters as if they're living the dream. They're certainly going out of their way to enable the phenomena

    No. YOU're saying that.

    And it's a bunk straw man on your part.

    Pathetic!

    My worry with people like you is wanting to dig into someone's mental health history. How far would you like to see background checks go regarding mental health? Require someone's psychiatrist to provide a patient's history/disorders? This is a very slippery slope that could in the end achieve what anti 2A want to.

    I want to go as deep as required to prevent schools and workplaces from being shot up.

    Your desire seems we should do nothing.
    That isn’t acceptable.

    Ever take a psych test, one mention of believing in God and country pretty much makes you a loon.. So I can see how this would be favorable to the left..

    I am not the one one expecting the quote system to suddenly work differently.

    I have no desire to edit down your posts as they are very illuminating to anyone reading the discussion.

    Try it yourself, go to the quote you are whining about and hit the “reply” button and see what is quoted. It is sad that someone even has to explain this like they would to a child. Messages in the “quotes” field do not pull through with a reply.

    I know. Complex right?!?

    Like I said though, your failure to understand this is made even more hilarious with your use of smilies. I won’t say what it reminds me of but just know it gives me a good chuckle

    And I find your rendition of the Christian VERY derogatory sir!!

    You are fully aware of the fact the only dodge here is yours - two, in fact:
    - You know you cannot demonstrate your "political gains" will save ANY lives - and you do not care.
    - You know you only care about mass shootings so far as you can use the victims for political gain.

    “Deal with”? Those are your words, not mine

    I view all religions that believe in sky deity’s and manipulate books written my men the same.

    Islam is just another variation of Christianity which are all distorted and stolen variations of paganism.

    I simply hit reply. Maybe format your posts correctly instead of crying about others not doing it for you. Or do this, as it is definitely more fun!

    I don't have to tell you that the potential for failure is inherent in everything. And that at some point, paring back begins to have a negative effect. For instance, you could attempt to stop all crime and accidents by placing everyone is a straight jacket. In point, there is more to life than safety.

    We love our military. It is our government that stands to go awry. Our guns are a reminder to our government that they cannot by some side banded intrigue and special authority, just roll over us while the military, for the sake of the greater good, is constrained to stand idly by. In any event, I guess we can count you out.

    That "sky fairy" to whom you refer is the very cause of American liberty, our rights in liberty, and is the essence of our equality in that we all spring from one creator. He is also the very Providence to whom our Founding Fathers appealed for the cause of our Independence. Otherwise our nation would not exist. But what is original reason to one so far removed as to have no cause or place for anything other than his own awesomeness, as if that "sky fairy" had become flesh and named himself sedated. God is real and he lives. He is everything you chose to leave behind. He is reverence, patience, faith, sacrifice, humility, charity, long suffering, contrition, understanding, light, peace, mercy, thankfulness, respect, worship and a host of other attributes of which you are ashamed to be acquainted. So you murder it for the delight and love of the world. How brave and loyal you are. And how mighty to kill kindness, to mock God, mock our founders, mock our nation, our freedom, and all those who esteem God dearly. Nevertheless, Gods quiet blessings roll on, his mercy everlasting.

    No, it's a totally logical inference. A straw man is when you make an inference based on nothing As far as how to make real, valid, and logical inferences I refer you to the late Rush Limbaugh, "Words MEAN things."

    Isn't it wonderful how conservatives are able to defend the merciless and random slaughter of innocents using God's undoubtedly benign nature

    As no human can possibly fully understand God's plan, it makes more sense than liberals defending the merciless slaughter of children because the mother said so.
