What about gun owners who support restrictions and bans? Sorry, I'm over here busy caring about DEAD CHILDREN. I don't give a fuck if you want to keep your happy fun times playing with dangerous weapons as if they were toys. Grow up, this is bigger than your hobby.
It's crazy how many activities are available to us in this modern age that don't involve potential death.
Obviously, I'm not talking about police or the army. I don't care about farmers and hunters, they can learn to trap it, bow it or fish it.
How many innocent people are you willing to cut down so you can have your fun. Put a number on it. Less than 100 school children per year and we get to keep our guns? Sounds gross doesn't it?
People need kidneys, it's sad but decreed yet this Senator's hoarding one more than she needs I offer this bill and I hope you'll vote "aye" Unless, of course, you just want PEOPLE TO DIE!
Traffic deaths have many crying with fear Over 30,000 people are dying each year this modest change I propose must be applied Unless, of course, you just want PEOPLE TO DIE!
Alcohol deaths are exceeding comparisons Black people, white people, Native Americans We need to ban alcohol, it can't be denied Unless, of course, you just want PEOPLE TO DIE!
Murders are bad. They have no defenders yet many are committed by repeat offenders I say lifetime in prison, whatever the crime unless, of course, you want PEOPLE TO DIE!
These car deaths I mentioned are terrible stuff It just doesn't seem that one seatbelt's enough Either vote for my act so that fewer will cry Unless, of course, you just want PEOPLE TO DIE!
The carbs. The container. We cannot ignore Whipped cream's killing more people than ever before This bill would be passed and be ratified if those people there didn't want PEOPLE TO DIE!
None of those things are remotely comparable to guns lol. Nice try but adults are able to easily spot rhetoric.
I don't understand what the kidney one is about.
Cars are central to our society, it would collapse without it(although I'm completely for phasing them out). Their main use is transport, not killing people.
Everything else you mentioned only affects the person using it and killin isn't their main use. My neighbor can't kill me because he's mad about his job and is eating too much whip cream.
Guns are made to kill. People are using it to kill innocent people. No one needs a gun(except certain professions and I'm clearly not talking about banning it for then). Go back to posting pictures.
name a profession you think needs a gun more than the working people need guns, please.
That's easy since working people don't need guns.
Infantryman, swat, police(but the UK policemen don't have them so probably not after a few years of a gunless society), ice cream truck driver
fucking liberals.
Lol
they do if a landlord tries to evict them or the pinkertons try to break their strike.

Are you okay there buddy?
Did you read my comment? I said I would vote for restrictions or bans. That means I would give up my gun. I am not the reason guns are so freely available in the US. Since that's the way it is, I figured I'd face reality and learn how to use them. It's not a hobby, I live in a place with a lot of gun crime. I would prefer if they weren't so easy to get, but here we are. I'm going to continue to choose to live in objective reality here, and if/when restrictions or bans are actually feasible in this country I'll be all for it.
You are naive if you think there is no legitimate hunting use for them. I don't think you understand how important hunting is in certain parts of the US. It keeps the ecosystem from collapsing in more rural places.
