Bipartisan gun responsibility measure reached

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

  wtf is this?  show me where i've ever said "everyone should be armed..."??

Well don't you think that? I've heard you insist that good guys with guns are the best way at stopping bad guys with guns. So if you're not for arming all the good guys, doesn't that mean you don't care if certain people get killed by bad guys with guns?

[Merit Matters]

  wtf is this?  show me where i've ever said "everyone should be armed..."??  ya know z man, as much as you guys always think you're the smartest in the room, there are many others thinking your club is bat sh*t crazy and naive.  look at what you guys have given us...you guys have essentially ruined our economy(with your pols) in less than 18 mos and we're supposed to listen to you for advice on anything?  go have another ice cream dude.  btw, a comedian you are not

Just let them be.

[Hards Alumni]

Indeed.

But bitching about something you can control is for tough guys.

Got it

Murder rates didn't soar only in cities during the pandemic; small-town sheriffs and prosecutors are overwhelmed with homicide cases.

We clearly need more guns.

And good guys to carry them. These gun-otters are really slipping up.

But what about Chicago?

[WellsstreetWanderer]

A select few, nothing will stop them. But we can put up economic, legal, and cultural barriers that make it increasingly difficult for them to gain access to weapons and may be enough to either deter them altogether, delay them long enough that friends/family/coworkers/law enforcement are able to see the signs and intervene, or at least funnel them away from AR-15s and their like and towards less efficient weapons so that the body counts are lower.

  How about enforcing the laws that exist now?  don't forget these schools are "gun free zones"
Criminals don't respect laws and what is never discussed is the data from the FBI which states that firearms
deter crime hundreds of thousands of crimes per year. I'm uncomfortable with "red flag laws" that allow people to act without due process. It is a slippery slope as those who would deny gun ownership would surely use this ruse.  Witness the politicalization of the DOJ,FBI and IRS already.

We should really ban bicycles. Just like guns load themselves and pull the trigger, bikes come to a stop and tip over with relative ease. Common sense bike control NOW!

Let's have no laws because criminals don't follow them. Nice logic. 🙄

I'm just saying we need common sense bicycle laws. That's something we can all get behind.

What laws do you think aren't being enforced?

Can you share the data from the FBI? I'm unfamiliar with it.

Why do you assume there would be no due process?

[MU82]

Don't worry, all you gun-lovers who don't want to see any of the gun-responsibility legislation that 80% or more of your fellow Americans favor.

Senate negotiations ended without a firm agreement, meaning it might be too late to set up votes for next week and pass legislation before a recess.

Happiness is a warm gun. Every man, woman and child needs to own a dozen or so guns apiece if Gunmerica is really to be a happy, safe country.
