mtangelsfan 9,868 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I would gladly ban alcohol if it meant guns were banned. We could eliminate cell phones so nobody was killed because of texting and driving. We could just imprison everyone with mental disease to keep the rest of us safe. Lots of things we could do.

tdawg87 30,417 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Would love to watch you tell the parents of the 22 kindergartners that were killed by a mentally ill man that was allowed access to an assault rifle that these are just the risks they endure for a free society. No right is more important than the one to live. If the teacher had a gun he might only be telling the parents of 3-4 kindergarteners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mtangelsfan 9,868 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 We could sterilize all people at or below the poverty line. That should help with children dying of malnutrition. We could force anyone who has had one child to be sterilized so we can stop overpopulation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tank 23,686 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 If we banned all sales of fast foods our economy would collapse. if fast food is outlawed, only outlaws will have fast food. Vegas Halo Fan and TobiasFunke 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angelsjunky 9,400 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Here is the thing. People can decide not to eat fatty food and be healthy. They can't decide not to get hit by a wacko driving drunk. Ban Booze! Like that worked in the past, or banning drugs stops people from doing drugs. I know you jest, but really. Gun control has been very successful in other countries. Americans hold onto it for some primal reason that I will never understand. One word: Merica! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

halobob 467 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 People don't decide to get killed by a loser DUI driver either. Here is the thing for me. There are plenty of things we could do to be safer. I just don't think the freedoms we would give up are worth it. Being in a free society has its risks. Kind of like the freedom to choose whether or not to get an abortion? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spirit 9,580 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Like that worked in the past, or banning drugs stops people from doing drugs. Yeah. You're right. Banning things doesn't work. Angelsjunky and Adam 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vegas Halo Fan 10,709 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 In the US people can own a redonkulous gun meant for war, have abortions, and I can't legally sports bet or play poker online. WTF! You just live in the wrong place, dude. I could place a sports bet or play LIVE poker within the next ten minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
halobob 467 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I can play live poker with a 40 min drive to Commerce but I'm way too lazy for that. I want to sit on my couch and play a sit n go while watching a preseason football game I have action on. No, I have to settle for the legal gambling that is our current stock market.
