    The people that DON'T cause problems ultimately must fix them.

    So.... black people that do not commit murder WAY out of proportion to their population must fox the problem of black people committing murder WAY out of proportion with their population?
    Interesting. How do you suppose they do that?

    My friend, my friend. Your arguing with Gaius is useless. His culture is different than ours, just like the Muslim overrunning Europe culture is different from most Europeans. Centuries of a culture of serfs and vassal mindset is too inbred to get into a pis$ing contest with.

    Funny thing that almost all the enlightenment thought, legal tradition, etc, we founded this country upon came from HIS country - Thomas Jefferson, in the Declaration of Independence, wrote about how the crown/parliament violated the rights of Englishmen.

    How did they ever go so wrong?

    That is why panels are formed to investigate options. Haphazardly implementing plans is not a solution.

    Joe's point may lead to helpful legislation; would you oppose that?

    The conflict is between those who are worried about a problem and those who insist that problem doesn't exist.

    Background checks on gun buyers address those same issues. Laws are meant to impede would-be offenders, not to restrict freedom.

    Interesting, when I went to look at your revisionist history I only found left wing sources that were making the same claim. More interesting I couldn't find anything dated or published before marxist-culturalism revisionist history that the left in America adopted in the mid 1960's.

    Are you not the one advocating ignoring the issue?

    Actually, that error was grammatical. We aren't keeping score, are we? Enjoy walmart.

    Access to guns by people that have little respect for the value of life.

    Interesting.
    And how should the state quantify this "little respect for the value of life"?

    What helpful legislation, specifically?

    What is the problem you claim some insist doesn't exist?

    So in other words, you have no solution.

    You believe that? You need to read some history.

    Query:

    If someone beat someone to death with an iron, would you want to ban irons? Would you blame the iron? How would you feel about irons in general?

    See how that works?

    So what is your plan to prevent those people from having guns while still protecting the good guys' unalienable constitutional right to keep and bear arms?

    I can kill you with a piano string. Your death would then be Mozart's fault.

    I don't have a plan, but I don't fault the government for trying to come up with one. If you have ideas, write your congressman.

    How can it be OK with you to put that little quip out there?
    I'll open the discussion by letting you know that my view is that it was socially irresponsible to quell Eugenics, back when we had a good chance to make it work.
    Let me know about your better idea.

    Obviously, documented violent or dangerously deviant behavior patterns should raise warning flags that ought to be evaluated.
