you got voted down for speaking truth. Do we say "Victims of vehicle violence" when someone is injured by a vehicle accidentally?

I got voted down? o.O

And you're right, though. People are so susceptible to simple nuances as subtle as a few inaccurate words

Yeah I voted you up to 0. It is newspeak in action. Notice how no news outlet is talking about the citizen who stopped that mass shooting in Oregon the same week as Sandy Hook. If they do they say "He killed 2 and intended to kill more until he was stopped." Stopped by who?

Good point. Both issues need to be addressed with whatever means necessary to curtail the deaths of innocent people.

It is! Sounds like the most dangerous place at the show.

Did it ever occur to you that the restrictions which you seek to implement have simply backfired? I regularly attend gun shows, the latest gun show since Sandy Hook had soo many people who knew very little about guns purchasing weapons before they are banned. You now have a ton of people who normally would have taken their time to learn about firearms prior to purchase, who are rushing out and panic buying just to get their hands on weapons. You say your against the weapons manufacturers but they never had it so good. Barry O is the best gun salesmen there ever was, he even diversified into the Mexican market with Fast and the Furious.

Well there you are, mystery solved!

Well hey, thanx for at least being condensending, ole blue, =)

It wasn't meant to be condescending. I thought what you said was clever and I knew you weren't serious. Not totally serious anyway.

I'm always open for doubt.

great come-back blue!

guns don't have brakes

That's the weird thing.... they aren't. Typically you have to check your weapons in where they verify that the weapons aren't loaded. The timing of the this seems a little questionable. Can't say I've ever heard of this happening at a gun show.

Yet it has happened before, especially the case where, at a gun fair, an 8 boy killed himself shooting an Uzi submachine gun under adult supervision:

she is next door on a more important cause

it is all right for a gun dealer to inspect a gun but
heaven forbid that the A T F should show up for the law abiding private parties

to be fair, no reasonable individual would put their child in this type of situation. This is clearly child neglect. You cannot legislate away stupid or crazy.

Wow you state a fact and 3 people thumbs down your comment. Unbelievable.

because it's irrelevant.
with that logic, everyone dies one day, so why don't we just kill who we want when we want!

Could not have said it better myself, sedwin.

MMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!

there is a lot of hunters that die crossing fences with loaded guns with safety off

Lame

well, another 6yo girl shot herself, playing with daddy left loaded gun.
i can bet you that if you talk with that guy a day before he would be sure he's totally in control of is weapons.

In comparison 3000 people died the same day from car accidents,
7 died in house fires, 10 drown, and 200 died from stab wounds.

Yeah, guns are DEFINITELY the problem. 300% higher chance of dying from a knife attack, and we're focused on attacking essential liberty because...

Sorry, why?

regulation on transportation are always improved to save more life, the same goes for fire prevention, always in one goal, reduce the deaths rate.
Gun soon to follow

And knifes kill tenth of firearms in USA

We even have to register DOGS.

could not say it better thanks

that is what my friend became

no stupid stay stupid ask his wife

In case you're interested, he is a link to places where dogs such as pit bulls and rottweilers are prohibited: http://www.dogsbite.org/legislating-dangerous-dogs-state-by-state.php

It's interesting to note that while these places see fit to legislate against dogs, they are totally opposed to any gun legislation.

Well and truly said, every single word!

Truth!

Not sure why anyone would thumbs down your comment. Excellent points my friend. Gun control isn't about saving lives. Obviously they don't care about saving lives. It's an agenda.

"It's funny how those on the right just make facts up"

That's all I need to read.... you can't make a fact up. Do you even know what a fact is?

A fact by definition is something that can be scientifically proven. So how is possible for anyone to make up a fact?

Apparently adults also leave words or in this case definitions out... You conveniently left out the 2nd definition of agenda which is: an underlying often ideological plan or program . LMFAO

two thumbs up
four #### hash for bravo!
I would say more
thanks

sedwin is one bad ass for a change
keep it up sedwin

Right on! I remember that.
We need another '60's/'70's peace movement.

Very wise! I'm with you! (I wouldn't be caught dead around those lunatic-fringers anyway, the air must be so thick with right-wing conspiracy insani-tea it'd be impossible for sane people to breath.)

look at those uniformed gun-totting FASCISTS, they even look like Nazi's! What a disgrace! "merica" should be filled with shame.

I'm all for that!

dam
i missed that every time I see a teenager
I would not want to live that over (probably mess it up ) but the joy in my mind has never diminished
