Guns and guns and guns and guns!
Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
Y'all have most probably seen this, but it generally does a great job of summing up how people outside the U.S. struggle to mentally get their heads around the American gun thing:

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
I have just realised it contains a word usage in a context that Negs won't like so I apologise.
I don't feel safer because Negs doesn't have a gun - because Negs doesn't need a gun. The one and only time Chuck Norris experienced fear, it was because he had misused an apostrophe in her presence.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
I would like that post if I could.
Even Chuck Norris has a mama, I bet she washed his mouth out with soap if she didn't like his language.

Negs may have guns. We'd need to see her flex to know for sure.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
Just seen the footage, it's truly terrible. Looks like a man with clear mental problems had no problems getting his hands on a firearm.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
Apparently, we could stop all the shootings if we just fixed the mental healthcare situation in the U.S. I've seen some variation on this argument posted at least a dozen times within the last seven hours or so.Dalty wrote:Just seen the footage, it's truly terrible.

The argument tends to come from those on the far right. Does this mean the far right is warming to universal healthcare? Because it would take something like universal healthcare to address all those with mental health issues.
Here's the weird thing:
Most of the people I know on the far right have generally pooh-poohed psychiatry and have maintained that those with mental health issues either need to snap out of it or stop being pussies. (Or, yes, both.) This we-need-better-mental-healthcare turn seems a strange turn for the far right to take.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
If it's either that or take the guns, suddenly they find psychiatry!

"Better mental health" is probably code for "Get right with God."

I love it when people claim that what's needed to protect society is Wilbur and Billy-Bob lighting up with their pop-guns (effective range 30m if you stop, aim and fire in a controlled manner) in all directions.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
I support the ownership--and usage, if need be--of legal firearms.
However... I think the time has come for Americans and Canadians to acknowledge that bearing arms is not a right, but a priviledge.
And a hard earned one, at that.

Re: Guns and guns and guns and guns!
Somewhere, the marketing executive at Colt is wishing they thought of that first.
