Sadly, I am no longer surprised at how much hate Progressives have for our great country and how little they think of their fellow citizens.


I'm not sure but this could qualify as one of the most ignorant statements ever . . . . .

When most of us were kids and the nightlight got turned off, we thought the boogeyman was hiding under the bed.
But for markle it was the progressiveman.

You threw your support behind everything my far left Progressive Wordslinger posted.

My post accurately portrays what was said. How is that "ignorant"?

Three hundred people shot every day. 90 die from gunshots every day. Alcohol is legal. Guns are legal. Prohibition never works. Dram shop and strict liability works. Looking at culpability or violence in our culture is like arguing that America is drunker than the Irish......it is not relevant to the solution.

Proof again that the Progressives, when something is going well, will lie about it so they can denigrate America and our citizens.

I am shocked...SHOCKED I SAY!

Progressives are truely offended by the Facts. Results, accountability and such things are irrelevant, immaterial and unimportant.

What a crock of you-know-what. The issue isn't murder statistics -- it's the increasing number of mass-murder incidents like Columbine, Newtown and the Navy Yard. And if your darling, I-love-Jesus, Mom and Apple Pie, America deserves a kick in the ass for it's violent, war-loving, hate the poor and love the rich conduct, so be it. Glad you're shocked. You deserve it.

Why don't you just fix the unstable, insane, criminal, radical persons that commit mass-murder?

Maybe the gun free zone signs are just too small?

We need bigger prisons. Maybe we need to make the entire country a prison? It can be called Camp America.

Chrissy, you're on to something there. Your idea originated with Herbert Hoover and was echoed by several "law enforcement" officials. Robert Bork was all for "camp America," I believe, and the Police Chief of New York would go for such a development in a New York minute.

But, look closely at all the police cameras, spy satellites, the eavesdropping of all our phone calls and emails, then look at any of the hundreds of photos of "law enforcement officers," in a long line, armed to the teeth, wearing Ninja masks, etc. Bullying anyone they wish off the streets.

We're already in Camp AmeriKa!!

If every little thing needs a govt solution... I'm very good at problem solving. It just never appealed to me to control people that aren't causing anyone any harm... like the vast majority of gun owners. From the looks of the targets of these rare incidents... they do have some things in common... I guess we're back to the causation/correlation argument.

Why respond to something totally irrelevant to the thread. If you understand the demographics of violent crime you understand a young population has an increasing rate of crime and an aging population has violent crime drop. To what proposition do you post those stats? The overwhelming per capita violence in this country is off the scale compared to most civilized nations. I disagree both with Wordslinger, Mr. Markle and yourself. Prohibition does not work. It requires regulation, registration, tax collection, and a clear understanding like alcohol that guns are inherently dangerous and like alcohol we need strict liability standards applied.

We do not want 12 year olds drinking, and we do not want mentally ill felons possessing guns, but if either does drink or kill somebody with a gun, it is not an analysis of Wordslinger trying to blame the negligence of someone, rather it is a strict liability analysis, all the while protecting our second amendment rights to possess guns............this stuff is simple and the gun lobby will squeal, but like MAD and the reaction of the caranage on the roads, the American people are going to recognize the inherent danger of a gun, and stop trying to figure out the behavior of those who use the same. I keep my guns, and pay registration and insurance fees, just like any bar, liquor store, or restaurant pays their license and dram shop insurance. It will never solve the problem, but it will quickly reduce the problem, allow for training criteria as a condition of cheap insurance policies, and allow for victim compensation pools which protect victims and begin assessing true costs for what has been released into the stream of commerce.

This worked well in Australia. It is something to think about but, hey, it is too logical for us I guess? The population of Australia is much small than ours but they seem like another cowboy culture not all that different from ours. They are living proof that at least there it worked. Wouldn't it be worth a try here?

The National Firearms Agreement -- reached among the political parties less than two weeks after a gunman killed 35 people and injured 23 at a Tasmanian seaside resort -- cut firearm homicide by 59% over the next two decades and firearms suicide by 74%, the report showed.

The law banned semiautomatic and automatic rifles and shotguns and put in place a mandatory buy-back program for newly banned weapons.

The buyback led to the destruction of 650,000 guns, the Sunshine Coast Daily reported.

If I remember over 2000 people were shot dead by the Australian cops while trying to take their guns...even the real Crocodile Dundee was killed but not before killing a couple authoritays....There would be a 100 times that number here....but hey go ahead.

Share with us what happened to the crime rate in Australia after their guns were confiscated.

Looks as if you remember incorrectly, way incorrectly. 2,000, REALLY? Actually the public was on board with the buyback and thought it was time to put an end to the shootings. Over 15 years 33 were shot by police. Shootings were not reported to have anything to do with people wanting to keep their guns. This is apparently a gun nuts fantasy.

The identities of just two police officers involved in 33 fatal shootings have been made public in the last 15 years, a Mail on Sunday investigation has revealed.
Since 1995 a total of 55 officers have opened fire on and killed members of the public, but in only two cases have their names been revealed.

The point of course is to reduce the number of people killed with guns, not a reduction in the general crime rate. Why can't you stick to the topic? As Raygun would say, there you go again.

I would rather have a few more crimes and a lot less mass shootings any day but I guess it is a matter of priorities.

so youll trade off a few hundred more women get raped because they didn't have a gun. just so you can have 10 less murders. I get it.. wonder if you would feel the same way if the higher crime is against you and your family. or are you just ok with it if its other people being raped.

Perhaps it would be more meaningful if these questions of yours were directed to people who have had loved ones murdered in mass shootings? Guns don't really protect people in the way you envision. By-standers with guns firing into a group of panicked people is not a very attractive prospect.
