20 kids were killed today.... so was the NRA

Odd, the Pennsylvania State Police are quoted as saying, "This happens all too often where people thing the gun was empty."

Try this experiment if you dare. Buy a 9mm Taurus handgun and put a live round in the chamber and cock. Pointing directly at yourself, tape it to the dash. Now drive on a pot-hole riven road for as long as you dare. Come back and tell us how many miles you drove. If you refuse to do the experiment you concede the point.

So you want me to violate one of the most basic rules of safe firearm handling to prove a point. Unfortunately the gun owner didn’t practice these basic rules causing the death of his son and will grieve for years. I would never point the muzzle at anything that I didn’t intend on shooting (basic gun handling rule #2). If you are serious about your experiment it shows the lack of safe gun handling knowledge you have.

I have carried my firearms in C1 (condition 1) for years and have never had any AD (accidental discharge). This includes driving on bumpy roads and in Michigan we have very bumpy roads.

Don't need to. The knife was illegal too, but easier to acquire. The more difficult a particular weapon is to acquire, the less often it will be used in these sorts of crimes. Semi-automatic weapons are designed to kill, yet we sell them like candy on line and at gun shows. Time to stop.

You still haven’t answered the question so I’ll help you out. Criminals don’t care about laws. Only law abiding people do. When the law states you can’t take weapons in the school only law abiding people will conform. This makes schools criminal freedom zones. They have free run and they know it.

Oh I do know the basics of gun safety and learned at an early age, that one must always be conscious of where the barrel is point and to never let it pass over any person. Why do you suppose that is taught to every young boy or girl who takes up hunting or sport shooting? The "rule," like you, concedes the danger of accidental discharge.

Too many gun enthusiasts are nonchalant about this danger, from the man in the Mercer County story to the woman who carries her Saturday night special in her purse never knowing quite where it's aimed. To many concealed carry enthusiasts forget about the right of those around them to know the risks their immediate environment might hold.

[trish]

Of course criminals disobey the law. That doesn't mean they don't care about them. They especially despise laws that makes their intended crime harder to commit.

Beandip ... you're quoting the Daily Mail? Hahaha - what a fuckwit - that's like quoting Fox New as fact. Look up the real statistics where in a country, where handguns and assault rifles are banned?

Here's an interesting one from the Washinton Post this year.



USA had 15 of the worst 25!!! Finland came second place, they had 2 of the worst, meaning the other 8 had 1. That says it all.

Beandip - why are you on Hungangels? I don't see one post of yours relating to TS/TV topics? Are you just here to spread vitriol because if that's the case, you can fuck right out of here and find a home elsewhere.

Pin Head Trish, look what happened in FL. when they "changed" the gun laws making it easier to obtain CCW and then introduced / strengthened the Castle Doctrine.

No matter how much utter bullshit you spew the facts are the facts.

The logic of your point of view is faulty enough. No need to compound it by insulting people

[muh_muh]

statistics

west germany? how old is that image exactly?

[fred41]

1981...pretty good ad though.

[robertlouis]

This is an ad for the gun that Lanza used to gun down 26 innocent people.

Problems with American masculinity, anyone?
