typical dweb who knows nothing about gun control. Like Belcher could not get a gun. Belcher was a three time all star wrestler. He could snap your head off and then jump off a bridge. Typical liberals.

Yeah, he's in the same camp with Chris Matthews. Would've loved to have heard Al Michaels rebut his idiotic comments.
I don't think he did. Also I own tons of weapons, but got no problem with strict gun control laws.
O J used a knife and I am so glad he did not pull the trigger on himself. SARCASM

Well why don't you break it down for me. Seems to me more sheep just trying to politicize an issue instead of trying to solve or offer real solutions.

Which gun control proposal would have prevented what happened? I don't think there was an assault weapon involved. People with volatile personalities should refrain from owning handguns. People who own guns should know that you don't pull them out to deal with their wives/girlfriends. He wanted her dead and would have found a way to accomplish it. He wanted to die and found a way to accomplish that.
Did you listen to the whole piece, costs was quoting from an article written by Jason whitlock who writes for Kansas city paper. Don't hate on costas for just reporting on what was written by someone else. Agree or disagree with what Whitlock wrote, this country needs to address violence with guns epidemic.
buy ur guns now boys Hotrock and his president will try taking them from u shortly.. BTW Innswood does not own a gun, but am thinking about purchasing one.
Agreed sir. Well spoken. I don't own a gun, don't want to take anyone's gun away, but we have a problem with gun violence. The discussion needs to start, soon!
Problem is most people don't want to have an honest discussion. They would rather continue to toe a party line(either party) and not seek real solutions. Just like any other issue in this country.
"I am a ___________ because of 3 major issues and that Rush Limbaugh/Rachel Maddow are idiots"
I would rather get behind young leaders like David Seaman who are not afraid to speak out against both parties and the corruption that fuels them. People who really want to protect your freedoms, money and rights.

I got one for ya. You're gonna love this. Wait for it... You have more gun freedoms now, under Obama, than you did the day he took office.
Just blew your freaking mind, didn't I?
Now go back to the Hub where you belong.

THe point was simple. Psychotic killers aren't going to become loving Sunday school teachers if you outlaw guns.
Hell, I'll chime in before this thread gets tossed. It's not about partisan politics to me. It's about basic Constitutional rights and my wanting to stand up for the document upon which this country was founded. We are already overly regulated and we have, in my opinion, an overly intrusive government as is. I agree that there is too much violence in this country, yet I think education and job creation solves more of the problem than gun control. Just my 2 cents......
I can get on board on this. I don't want to take any ones guns away, but I got no problem with waiting periods and stricter punishment for carrying an unregistered fire arms.
Violence rises along with unemployment. So does suicide. Americans are suffering right now with high unemployment, low wages, price gouging at the pump and grocery store, among other things. It's a tough time to be an American. We're all feeling the pinch, and desperate people do desperate things. People wanting to solve violence are looking at the wrong place by trying to take away guns.
LE,
There is a difference between smart gun laws and wanting to outlaw guns totally. I am smart enough to be open to debate and not group all gun laws into "outlawing guns".

Bingo! You take away one weapon and they'll use another. The only solution is to have serious penalties for using weapons in an illegal manner.
England has very strict gun control laws. Private citizens have difficulty acquiring firearms for protection. As a result, many thieves in England simply walk up to a residence, ring the bell and smack the owner with a bat when they answer the door. Then, they clean out their house. They can do this without fear because the citizens don't have guns to defend themselves.
i have no problem with reasonable restrictions for the purchase of weapons, but that isn't a solution. It's simple a barrier to rapid acquistion. If the criminal wants a gun, he can aquire it on the streets for a premium price.
You STILL are missing the point. Outlaw guns. Don't outlaw guns. Make them harder to get. Make them easier to get. Stiffen penalties. Loosen penalties. NONE of that matters. and NONE of that would make an ounce of difference in crime statistics. Crazy people are still going to be crazy. Killers are still going to kill people. Trying to politicize guns is ignorant, and just a deflection away from the REAL problems that we face as Americans.
Would you agree with how I edited your post? By the way I agree with your post to an extent and do feel it is accurate when discussing drugs.

Depends on what drugs you're talking about. I'm fine with pot. Just voted to legalized here in Colorado. But anything else? No way.
Just for the record, there is no correlation between crime and the economy. That's one of the few things I remember from my statistics classes. I did a paper on it, looked up the data myself, and put it in the ole dreaded mini tab program myself. It's one of those things that everyone assumes is correct because logically it makes sense.
