Show me a black teenager that doesn't have saggy pants and likes the bullshit one calls "hip hop" and "rap".


Brandon and Alex Klienshcimdt. They were good friends of mine and their parents wouldn't allow the ghetto stuff in their house just like their mom. She was blacker than most black people I see today and yet she spoke perfect english not the Yea Yea wut up bullshit because her parents wouldn't let that ghetto talk come in the house.

I know what will be said. "Banning all guns will take the gun out of that intruder's hands." Yeah, okay. Good luck with that. Getting warrants for every household in order to storm them and search and seize every firearm might be a little difficult. Unless, of course, you want to completely shit on the Constitution and ignore the Bill of Rights.

I'm not entirely sure it is, but if it is, are you going to tell me that there's not, at all, a chance of that scenario actually playing out?

Also most people are humbled by the power of the gun so they won't feel good buying it.

AND OH lol thanks for the bump reminds me:

3 weeks ago at around 10:00 PM my neighbor noticed 3-4 guys walking up to the window of another house nearby. We live in a row of big townhomes.

Actually his wife noticed the intruders...these guys were looking into the windows and doors of my other neighbor. While calling police, my neigbor got his gun and went to the guys and spoke with them trying to get them to stay longer. But they somehow noticed the gun he had on him..and bolted away.

man...3 mins later there were, believe it or not, 12 police cars lol! 12!

I don't know if I would want to have a gun in my home but atleast I feel very safe knowing my friendly neighbors all got guns roflmao

Again, people are idiots.

Nobody in their right mind wants to shoot someone. The gun wouldn't even have to be shot often. I'd rather not like that there's a gun in the house rather than not like that an intruder has an upperhand.

Seriously, guys. Swords.

Picture this. You walk into school and then this guy prepares to go all Cho Seung Heui on everybody, and whips out a katana or something.

LITTLE DID HE KNOW.. The principal happens to be carrying his motherfucking claymore.

Much epic ensues.

I just bought #7 today. It's not a big gun- a lightweight 8-shot S&W .22 revolver. I paid for it out of my own pocket; I wouldn't have had it any other way- only the two which were my 18th and 21st birthday presents were paid for with anyone's money other than mine. I've spent several thousand dollars on firearms and ammunition since my 18th birthday, and I have yet to regret a single purchase. Each weapon fulfills a specific role, and I've practiced with every one of them- some since before I owned them, as my Dad owns many of the same guns I do (including the one I just bought).

My take on that call- I don't know if it was faked or not, but it was at least altered at the end; a gunshot is much, much louder than that. Even a .22 in a different part of the house is louder than that, unless there's a silencer attached- and the weapon in the clip didn't have one. The voices, on the other hand, were unaltered; if the 911 system were equipped with automatic volume control software, some of the screams would have been toned down as well. If you can alter it, you can fake it- QED. Lacking further evidence, it is impossible to tell whether or not the call really took place; a link to a news site might help clear things up.

Regardless, that call is a perfect example of why neither side will ever see the other eye-to-eye- we just don't think the same way. When a gun control advocate hears a clip like that, they think: "if we had better gun control, that lady and her baby might still be alive." When a gun rights advocate hears the same clip, they think: "if that lady had a gun, she and her baby would still be alive." Only one of the above can be correct- and I've made abundantly clear in the past which argument I support.

Actually "better gun control" never does anything good. Beyond keeping the crazies from getting guns, gun control is utterly useless, unless we want to disarm the citizens (which governments like to do).

If guns never existed, things might be better, but that's not the case.

I am open to allowing guns but there has to be a lot of gun control, to keep ex-cons and psychos from being able to purchase weapons.

Another note, I always hate those annoying NRA gun nuts who want to allow everything and anything, including shit like hollow armor piercing cop killing bullets etc.

Yeah, the only gun control that should be done is on ex-cons, criminals, etc.

The biggest problem with that is if they're willing to break the law, and they have the intent to actually harm someone, gun control won't do shit.

I'd support the government purchasing guns for every American citizen above the age of 18, except those in the prison system. That way you know everybody's armed. Those that don't want to carry the guns, they don't have to. If they want to refuse the gun, they can. Everybody who refuses a gun or already has one has the chance of getting a tax credit. This way, criminals have to fear who may have kept their gun or who may not have.

Rocko, do you ever bother to do your research before posting?

Ignorance and misinformation are not valid arguments, in case you were wondering.
