Glatlol: I cannot even comprehend a situation where I would have a gun, it will never happen.

I said it on another thread, I am not going back on forth on this anymore, what I have read on here over the past few weeks saddens me deeply.

I may have no say over people thinking its ok to kill but I can control how I let it effect me so I am no longer going to even read these threads.

Its late here, goodnight.


None of us here think it's "OK" to kill. It is not something we look forward to. Unfortunately it becomes necessary at times for some. If I had been present at Sandy Hook and had a gun, I would have had no problem taking care of the situation.
You are right "You have no comprehension" of realities here that have been a long time in the making. It is best that you and some others like you realize that and don't comment on things you can't comprehend.

When the president surrounds himself with children while giving his announcement that reasonable gun control measures are necessary, bear in mind that those ‘assault rifles‘ the government is sure to be going after were not even used in the Newton, Connecticut elementary shooting. As NBC admits in the video above, four handguns were used to carry out that despicable atrocity. This directly contradicts other reports.

Pete Williams, who is NBC’s chief Justice correspondent, reported the following in the video posted above:

This continues to be a very complex investigation and there is a lot of contradictory information out there, but we have some new information this morning (one month ago) from a couple of federal officials and state officials.

They say now that there were actually four handguns inside the school, not just two as we were initially told. Four handguns and apparently only handguns that were taken into the school.

We knew that Adam Lanza, the man said to be the gunman here, also had an ‘assault-style’ AR-15 -style rifle that he had had taken to the school, it was in the car he drove there, his mother’s car, but we have been told by several officials that he had left that in the car.

The correspondent makes it clear over and over again that he confirmed this information with federal and state officials. Now, a lot of media reports contradict this one, but somebody’s lying. The report that an ‘AR-15-style’ assault rifle was in the trunk of murderer Adam Lanza’s car is up for dispute as well. If one examines footage from police breaking into Lanza’s car, one sees police clearing a round from a “long gun of some type” that does not appear to be ‘AR-15 style’ or ‘assault-style.’

Whether or not the mainstream media are intentionally spreading disinformation about the Sandy Hook elementary tragedy, there is one thing for certain: not only are violent crime rates at a modern low and going down, but only 323 homicides were committed by rifles in 2011. That includes hunting rifles, assault rifles, military style rifles, semi-automatic rifles and whatever label one comes up with, regardless of magazine or clip capacity.

In a nation of 311 million people, the odds of being killed by a rifle is about one homicide per million people, which is far less than the odds of being murdered by a blunt object. But we don’t hear the media arguing about regulating hammers and clubs. Again, when 99.7% of registered gun owners are law-abiding, gun control is not about guns, it’s about control.

Scubadiva: Have you ever spoken to victims of a burglary? They are traumatized, esp. if the robber credibly threatened or used physical violence.

I cannot think of any burglar who ever entered a home with honorable intentions. As a resident, I do not know whether the burglar is armed or not.

If he has a crowbar and feels threatened by my presence or me surprising him, he can very easily kill me with one blow. You are talking about people who have a criminal mindset already. If they're on drugs, then that makes matters even worse for the resident because they are totally unpredictable.

Reasoning with a criminal who already decided that you are the victim is something for the movies.
yep,it easily can get you shot and killed!

Humans are dangerous, but what about animals?

Don't tell me you're against hunt, tell me what to do in front of a wolf or other dangerous animals. There are people who lives near them. A swedish woman told me he was not afraid of bears, but of wolverines (glutton, skunk bear)who are fierce and not fear humans.

What would you do without a weapon? Perhaps you don't need an assault weapon but you really will face it with a knife?

I have heard rumors of poor hygiene detouring wild animals away because of their keen sense of smell. I even saw it happen once with humans when being herded by the "Tour Director" close to "Notre Dame", she was a tiny thing and raised her arm to keep us aware of her presence. She could part the red sea if it had been a obstacle.
