Every purchase goes through NICS and if you buy a lot of guns they will pay you a visit to ask why. I know someone it happened to (a collector).

We are digressing terribly. We need a plan to stop this sort of thing, I think we all agree on that. How about we discuss ideas for preventing this in the future? Seems more productive.

I'll take harmless country crazy over put a bullet in you big city crazy any day. Spent enough time in both to know the difference first hand.

Gee that's funny because I look Hispanic, and wasn't a Christian growing up, yet no one ever gave me a hard time in my redneck town. Ever. You watch too much TV perhaps?

...as long as you want to lump the 99.999% of law abiding gun owners in with nutcases I'd say it's fair.I know many people who own ARs and the like. I don't have any particular use for them but I certainly don't lose any sleep over it either. They're no more dangerous than they semi owner/driver I know. He isn't going to ram it into a crowd.

I can go to the Hollywood walk of fame and see more crazies in 10 minutes than I'd see in a literal lifetime of being in the small town I grew up in. A couple states like Nevada and Montana attract crazy survival types but they're the rare exception to your typical American good ole' boy who would give you the shirt off his back.

As this country has become more Godless, we've become more violent. Vioence is even glorified and fed to our kids by stupid parents. Don't worry, we're barreling towards a Godless liberal utopia. Just like Stalin's Russian, and Mao's paradise they will take guns at some point. Us durn redneck Christians will be extinct and you'll be happy..for a short time.

If by awful you mean "points out undeniable facts liberals hate" then yes, and proud of it. Refer to my post a few up then answer me this: why are there very few shootings in conservative redneck country even though everyone has guns, and why are liberal big city utopias death zones? Maybe, just maybe it's not the guns, it's the people and how they use them.

You claimed the can be bought and sold privately (false) and that they can be bought at gun shows (also false).

If you look at the murder rate outside of big liberal cities, the US is actually very safe. 15 cities over 100000 residents that voted for Obama by the largest margin: - Detroit, Michigan - 24 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Gary, Indiana - 15 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Berkeley, California - 5 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Washington, DC - 13 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Oakland, California - 16 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Inglewood, California - 8 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Newark, New Jersey - 11 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Cambridge, Massachusetts - 5 violent crimes/1,000 residents- San Francisco, California - 7 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Flint, Michigan - 24 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Cleveland, Ohio - 14 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Hartford, Connecticut - 13 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Paterson, New Jersey - 11 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Baltimore, Maryland - 15 violent crimes/1,000 residents- New Haven, Connecticut - 15 violent crimes/1,000 residents The national average is four violent crimes/1,000 residents. Every one of the 15 most liberal cities in the US has a higher violent crime rate than the national average. Twelve of the 15 have a violent crime rate that is at least double the national average. Two of them have a violent crime rate that is six times the national average.The 15 most conservative cities in the US: - Provo, Utah - 2 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Lubbock, Texas - 9 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Abilene, Texas - 5 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Hialeah, Florida - 4 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Plano, Texas - 2 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Colorado Springs, Colorado - 5 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Gilbert, Arizona - 1 violent crime/1,000 residents- Bakersfield, California - 6 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Lafayette, Louisiana - 8 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Orange, California - 1 violent crime/1,000 residents- Escondido, California - 4 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Allentown, Pennsylvania - 6 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Mesa, Arizona - 4 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Arlington, Texas - 5 violent crimes/1,000 residents- Peoria, Arizona - 2 violent crimes/1,000 residents

Wrong. You have strong opinions on something which you clearly don't know the facts about.

Lol? Nothing funny about this. You're spewing BS and we're trying to have a reasonable discussion about what is clearly a serious problem in this country. I don't want semi autos banned but obviously you can't have this continuing either. Your position is clear but please don't spread lies. It's time for an honest conversation in this country but that means no more rhetoric or exaggerations from either side. Guns are not evil, people are. But you don't need to defend your home against a small army either. There is a middle ground. Actual FACTS: Full autos are "legal" in almost every state. But you can only buy ones that were made before 1986, and they cost at least 20 grand each for a rifle. I doubt this guy had gone through the years of background checks and shelled out 200k or more for the ten he evidently had. You CAN NOT buy any class 3 item at a gun show. You could put money down, then get it 9 months or more later if you pass all checks.

It was clearly full auto. Very regular high rate of fire. Not bump fire and certainly not semi auto. Probably illegally modified. Doesn't really matter. Sick people who are determined enough always seem to find a way.

This is blatantly untrue. I've been to dozens of shows and have never seen one, and without the proper background check and Federal stamp (that takes almost a year) you wouldn't be able to buy one. Guns are extremely restricted in most of Europe, so terrorists just cut people's throats, blow stuff up, and drive large trucks through crowds. Would you prefer that? The problem is crazy people. We live in a world where many don't have access to mental health care, violence is glorified (thanks Hollywood), and people have 100 facebook friends but in reality are isolated in their own little world. Literally everyone had guns where I grew up. In my entire town of about 1200 there was never a murder for the 22 years I lived there. Never even heard of someone pointing a gun at another person. We have a cultural problem. A sick, Godless, I'll do whatever I feel like culture.

Hits he "lost"? LOL that's kind of what the defense is supposed to do. Yeah and if I was 10 years younger and quicker I would bat .500. Excuses. He sucked big time when we needed him most. That said, he's one man and can't be expected to carry the team constantly.

Bad why? Is it bad to say whites are inferior athletes? It's generally true. Since when is the truth bad? Blacks have more fast twitch muscle fiber, that's a fact. Just as other races have other attributes. Asians are shorter and industrious. Is that racist? Some tribes in the Andes evolved larger lungs to live at higher altitudes. Racist? Whites tend to invent and conquer. Racist? People from different areas of the world developed all types of unique attributes, but everyone's brains evolved exactly the same and we're all equally smart. Right. Bottom line, we're all human and should be treated with respect. There is no superior race, just differences. If we could have an adult conversation and recognize those differences we might get somewhere. But political correctness won't allow that. Sorry if facts offend, but they're still facts.

His OBP in high leverage situations is .369. In other words, he's been pretty clutch.

It is suspect and here's one example of many variables: What degrees and from what schools? Makes a huge difference. Black IQ's lag significantly and because of preferential college entrance, many of them that get in just can't hack the harder majors that are in demand. About 7% of the general population has an IQ over 120. Among Ashkenazi Jews it's close to 15%. Among blacks it's less than 1%. Who would you hire to be the engineer for the bridge your family drives across every day, or perform open heart surgery on you? At some point we have to grow up and accept that people have different strengths and weaknesses, and that races ARE different. Blacks looks and act different than Asians who look and act different than Hispanics etc etc. Or maybe I should sue the NBA because it's racist that they won't give me a huge contract. It's because I'm pretty light skinned. Not because I'm only 6' 1" and suck at basketball.

He's batting .229 in September and he struck out 4 times last night in the most important game of the year. "bad luck" right?

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=trump+rules+of+engagement I thought you were being sarcastic as I couldn't imagine anyone being that uninformed or intellectually lazy. I guess some people just really don't care about our military or what's going on in their world.

Binary thinking is a sign of a simple mind. All those gray areas can be a bit overwhelming to some.

Where did anyone claim that? You sure are touchy about Trout. Every thread on this board you're making excuses for his lousy play as of late. Judge has put up 7.8 WAR this season. Trout 4.6. Even if Trout hadn't been hurt he'd still be behind. I personally am not a big fan of WAR but there you have it.

Obviously you don't know anyone who is serving and have never served yourself. Otherwise you'd already know the answer to this question. Therefore, save the junior high level insults. There's a reason military personnel voted for Trump 3-1 over Clinton.

I don't care if they were nazis, black panthers, commies, anarchists.....we have freedom of speech in this country. Antifa scum are attacking people that are trying to exercise their rights. Do you agree with what happened at Berkeley too? If you condone this you are part of the problem. When you start suppressing certain groups you will be next. Just like the dems thought it was a good idea to enact the nuclear option in the Senate, then shortly thereafter it was used on THEM. Be careful what you wish for. As far as me, you couldn't be further off. Your lack of debating skill and intellect is obvious in your predilection to resort to swearing and trying to call everyone you disagree with a nazi. If that's the best you can do don't bother replying because I won't answer again. If you'd like to continue like an intelligent adult then please do.

You didn't really just try to justify the violent antifa assaulting an old lady, did you? They are the real nazis. Showing up and assaulting anyone they disagree with, nationwide.
