desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] Extended mags aren't banned?... Even though they should be. You don't need to have 30 bullets in a clip to go hunting or defend yourself.
#160 to #148

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] You know I meant to say magazine. Even still, here's your 30 round clip.

chiefrunnyjeans (01/17/2013) [-] Don't even start with that bullcrap. yes you do need as many bullets to defend yourself as possible. Especially because we don't just have guns for self defense. It is to keep a check on the government.

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] Haha, no. Just, no. You conservatives and your crazy dreams of overtaking the government... and that's ******** the government decides to do some Orwellian nonsense. I pity your insane ideology. You will not survive against an army.

thedutchs (01/17/2013) [-] Sure. But whenever a revolution would happen this instant some general would take over a part of the army and foreign parties with interest would supply arms and vehicles to the rebels and even help fight the government.
There is always a bunch of high-ranking officers who want to have power.
It happened in the Roman empire, the French revolution (Napoleon) and a few years back in Egypt and Libya.
So the people would still win in the end.

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] You don't know that. Way to give the benefit of the doubt to your government, who you are accusing of enforcing some form of Orwellian state by force. You'd like to believe a lot of people in the army are good people, right? Well the army is where people who want sick thrills of killing people or enforcing martial law go as well.

cycloberrick (01/17/2013) [-] gosh I just told someone I was done debating the subject so here is my final comment
which is why instead of banning something I think they should just perform background checks on people, that could also help and people could keep their guns. also the guns were obtained by a person who wasn't apart of the shooting which means the people using them were handling them illegally

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] Who said I was in favor of banning guns? Pro-gun rights activists usually spout that strawman when in fact we want the same reasonable legislation that you'd probably be in favor of. Federally mandated background checks, closing the gun show loophole, and banning most if not all extended magazines. I'm also in favor of banning ******* rifles, but JUST ******* rifles. People who want guns for morally honest reasons would be forced to buy some other type of gun, boohoo. We can't always get what we want because sometimes the government deems it dangerous to society, like illegal narcotics for example.

cycloberrick (01/17/2013) [-] also this is totally off topic, but do you play League of Legends or own a PS3 because you seem to be one of the few reasonable people I've seen on the internet and I would like to add you as a friend on something, don't really care what game I'd add you on just any random game would work.
#222 to #215
-
cycloberrick (01/17/2013) [-] oh sorry, I wasn't paying enough attention before and I guess I just ******* you were against gun use. But banning ******* rifles, that's a very broad term and can be interpreted in many different ways. A person can look at a bolt action hunting rifle and say it can be used as an ******* weapon, so sure you could ban certain firearms but please make it more specific than simply " ******* rifles"

bramdk (01/17/2013) [-] i mean that when an automatic gun is manufactured it isnt put in a public bin for the illigal person just to take
its bought by a store
who then sells it for a profit
now if you are a bad person you can go and sell this gun for a higher profit to someone who hasnt got a license but wants one to lets say do harm
then this gun is now deemed illigal
but saying it has never bein inside a store once in its time is total ********

MythBuster (01/17/2013) [-] It's a .22, you can take 5 shots to the chest and live.. Plus I shoot gophers on cow farms so yeah it's for the convince of everyone, gophers ruin ***** fields and if a cow breaks its legs by stepping in a gopher hole, you have to kill it. The more cows that have to be killed, the higher the beef prices are
#189 to #157

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] I understand it makes your job and the others who do the same sort of activity easier... but we are talking about people's lives here man. It really does have an impact whether a shooter is able to shoot continuously for longer amounts of time. Imagine if someone committed a **** ****** using a minigun.
#223 to #210
-
desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] That's not true. You need to think and consider the many ways that making something illegal could prevent someone from getting banned mags. First of all, you say "criminal" which implies that they have a criminal background. Most people who go on killing sprees do not have a criminal history. Usually people in gangs or tough neighborhoods that I would call criminals know people that could probably find them extended magazines, because perhaps they know someone who illegally deals arms. But what about those people who've never done anything criminal? They might not have that same connection. And there you go, it's a change. Maybe a small or a big change, that all depends on how successful the implementation is and how well the police handle illegal arms trafficking, but a little change today could save someone's life tomorrow.

MythBuster (01/17/2013) [-] Have drugs went away since they were banned?? There millions and millions of extended mags circulating through the US, banning them wouldn't do **** ... This argument isn't going anywhere since you're so closed minded, so have a good one man
#251 to #249
-
desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] Obviously not, I was just making the example of appropriate legislation. The war on drugs doesn't work, decriminalization and fines with rehabilitation would make a difference. Just like how some gun control works and others makes things worse, like my home state's ban on concealed weapons. You say that like you know it's a fact lol. It still doesn't change the basic principle that if you reduce the availability you'll reduce the number.

lisreal ONLINE (01/17/2013) [-] Because, as many other people have said, people out to commit **** ******* actually follow the law, right? We should ban knives, poisonous chemicals, cars, hammers, you know, anything that could ****** in a ****** , right?
If somebody wants something or to do something badly enough, they are going to do it.

lisreal ONLINE (01/17/2013) [-] You just make it sound like guns are the only ****** weapons. Like somebody else said, if extended mags aren't within somebody's grasp, they can bring more mags.
I'd like to pull the "keep the guns to check our government" card, but no matter how much or how little control we have on guns, we will always be outgunned. I don't think Obama is trying to piss us off. I don't like him as a president but I believe he means well. It's just I think he is expecting for more people to obey the laws than who actually will. Unless guns are 100% unavailable (which is a nice but outlandish thought), you will always run the risk of tragedy. Same goes for drugs, alcohol, vehicles, etc. I know it's terrible, but that's unfortunately the world we live in.

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] They are the most efficient ****** weapon. If you had to kill someone and you couldn't sneak up on them, which would you choose?
A. A grenade
B. A knife
C. Plastic explosive
D. Poison (you'd have to force them to ingest it)
E. A gun

cadaverbox (01/17/2013) [-] One might use a computer to pirate things.
They might pirate a book titled "Steal This Book"
This book contains detailed instructions on how to build a bomb and where to place it on a wall to get the most blast damage.
One could also use said computer to remotely detonate this bomb, killing many people in the process.
We don't need computers.
Criminals, like society as a whole, find ways to innovate when there is scarcity.

desuforeverlulz (01/17/2013) [-] When you look at the bigger picture, if we reduced the number of gun related crimes through good legislation, we'd have less **** ******* overall. The reason being is that guns are easy to obtain and are very efficient methods of killing people, it looks very ********** when you're purchasing things to make bombs. Also **** ********* are usually sadistic and might not get the same thrill from remotely detonating a bomb.

cadaverbox (01/17/2013) [-] Or maybe you could kill the problem at the source in helping to identify and aid mentally unstable citizens so that they don't go off on rampages. Why is restriction of the ****** the proper solution when you could just restrict those deemed unfit to carry such weapons?
Also, your reasons about "looking ********** " and "thrill" are ******** . Bombs can be made with so many household items, that with the right know-how, you could probably blow up your garage using only the stuff inside it. And if anything, an explosions would be more thrilling to a psychopath.

“The Nature of **** ****** and Autogenic ******** ”
Bowers, Thomas G.; Holmes, Eric S.; Rhom, Ashley. Journal of Police and Criminal Psychology, 2010, 25:59-66. doi: 10.1007/s11-6
Abstract: “Incidents of **** ****** have gained considerable media attention, but are not well understood in behavioral sciences. Current definitions are weak, and may include politically or ideologically motivated phenomenon. Our current understanding of the phenomenon indicates these incidents are not peculiar to only western cultures, and appear to be increasing. Methods most prominently used include firearms by males who have experienced challenging setbacks in important social, familial and vocational domains. There often appears to be important autogenic components … including dysthymic reactions and similar antecedents. There have been observations of possible seasonal variations in **** ******* , but research to date is inadequate to establish this relationship. It is recommended behavioral sciences and mental health researchers increase research efforts on understanding **** killings, as the current socioeconomic climate may increase vulnerability to this phenomenon, and the incidents are not well understood despite their notoriety.”
