You always fall back to this argument. Anyone who disagrees with you is sacrificing babies. Is that all you've got?

OK? whats the ratio of deaths by AR15's vs handguns?
Yeah. Doesnt come close. This is nothing but outrage via emotions and not facts.
Actually I support banning all semi-autos, pistols and rifles./roll eyes
If you cared at all about gun killings you would support legislation banning what kills the most people: handguns. But you dont, nor does the senators. It s all a facade youve bought in to. But fuckin rage on man.
No we don't. Your 'reasoning" is stupid and incredibly shallow. The right to vote? You have to PROVE you're old enough. And in many states, you have to prove you were never convicted of a felony. Stop saying stupid, shallow things that are easily disproved.Once we democratically decide something is a right, we have to grant that right to everyone without forcing them to prove they have a need for it.
That's not even close to what I was saying. I was saying it is unconstitutional to make lawful residents prove they have a NEED for a gun before they can have one. A right isn't a right if in addition to meeting all age and other requirements you still have to ask permission and prove the abstract concept of NEED. Just like it's not up to anyone to question my need to vote. So long as I meet all legal requirements voting is my undisputed right.No we don't. Your 'reasoning" is stupid and incredibly shallow.

Then you're clearly not paying attention to many on the left.
And my analogy isn't silly at all
Both are constitutional rights: 1 defined explicitly in the second amendment and the other a right defined by SCOTUS. When it comes to any state law that tries to restrict abortion, its proponents push back fearing the possibility that it will be re-banned.
Heck, I proposed a couple of years back that I thought that it'd be prudent to tighten regulations on clinics that perform abortions to establish better standards of cleanliness and procedural practices that would make them fall in line with hospitals. Isn't that reasonable? Don't you want women who choose to terminate their pregnancy at the point where an invasive procedure is necessary to be safe? That the person performing the procedure is fully qualified? That the clinic is using properly sterilized implements? Guess what? I got shot down. My desire for women to be properly cared for fell on deaf ears. My proposal was dismissed as an attempt to put burdensome restrictions on the clinics.
see this is a good point. I too want the best except for gun owners. I think in order to help potential gun owners select the right weapon for their needs and to train them correctly all gun stores should be required to have a gun range so a prospective buyer could try the gun out. Require at least a 1000 yard range for shops selling rifles. Shorter if only selling hand guns.
A full time gunsmith should be on site at all times and to take the risk out of choosing the wrong weapon gun shops must allow sell backs for full price for any reason at any time.
All of these are great for gun owners.
If he had a knife he would have stabbed them to death anyways. Guns aren't a problem. Knives are.Kids, aged 12 and 13, shot by driver after throwing snowballs at passing cars
Two children, ages 12 and 13, were shot after throwing snowballs at passing cars in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, police said.www.cnn.com
totally normal in a 3rd world country
Woke up to this:
"Ev," my brother, is in Thailand right now and she had just heard about a mass shooting in Thailand. Still, this is as silly as assuming I might've been involved in any American shooting you may have heard of without some info relating it more closely with me. I'd be more worried about something like the drunken attack on tourists from ~2016 happening again.
That said, it seems the gunman got at least 20 people and live-streamed to social media like the New Zealand guy:

Glad your brother is alright.
What's extra-sad is that just one of these shootings is a national tragedy in most countries. In the US, it's just another week.
Well, I tried to see if there were any news reports on YouTube yet and saw a video about another mall shooting just weeks ago...
No worries. I'm just saying it's not even the first one to happen since he got there a month ago so I'm surprised it's as common as it is there. You don't typically hear much about it.Ugh. Sorry if I was downplaying the severity of things. Let's put it this way, then: the frequency of mass shootings in the US appears to be markedly higher.

Anyway, I repeated that search on YouTube and, of course, NOW there are a ton of more recent results...
Makes that video from a few weeks back a little difficult to find:
Dude had already shot 5 people before killi g the toddler. D:
