Wrong.
WuWei: tnt:We were discussing what the government could do.
Why government? Why always government?
For better or worse, government has a tremendous affect on these things.
For worse, always for worse. What tool does government always use to “have a tremendous effect on things”?

highways are better.
WuWei: TheRedComet:Did he give the kid the gun? Unless he knew about the kids plan and gave him the firearm how on earth is he ultimately responsible?
Do you think no one should own a firearm?
He could have been negligent. Manslaughter.
The murder is over charging.
I don’t think so. Buying him a gun after having FBI contact due to threats he was making is pretty damning.
Nope, the murder charge requires intent. It’s an over charge. It will go away. As will the cruelty to children charges. They’ll get him for manslaughter. He was negligent.
Brandon is a dumbass. He’s calling for "ending immunity for gun makers. "
Gun makers do not have immunity. They are subject to the same exact liabilities as the manufacturers of every other product.

That wasn’t the question.
One is a right and the other is a privilege. They cannot be directly compared.
TheRedComet:Should every single gun owner be held responsible for what an idiot does?
Having restrictions on you ability to buy a gun is not ‘being held responsible’ any more than requiring headlights on your car is holding you responsible.
Actually I’m being punished.

true with headlights too - makes the car more expensive, maybe you don’t like headlights…being told to have something you don’t want…
‘I’ve never driven into anything in the dark’ (I’ve never been irresponsible with my gun’)

Just like headlights.
Just like drug laws.
Just like building codes.
Just like a lot of things.
Why are you comparing the privilege of driving a car on public roads to a God given right like bearing arms?
Yes.
Is it intentional? I wonder.
Just like headlights.
Just like drug laws.
Just like building codes.
Just like a lot of things.
If there were no headlight laws-would you drive at night?
If there were no drug laws-would you do drugs?
If there were no building laws-would you build a building to collapse?
If there weren’t a law about a lot of things-would you do them?

Well?

I don’t believe jesus and his father give a crap about owning a gun.
Yes.
Is it intentional? I wonder.
Sure, it’s intentional.
I think you mean, nefarious.

Unfortunately for your POV, we’re all in this together, and society sometimes has to cater to the LCD.
Because even if you - and I believe you would - independantly choose to drive at night with headlights, some jack ass might not, and plow into you while you are walking the dog.
Even though you would choose to build your store to code, the idiot next to you ight not and the whole block burns down, or worse…
It’s just the reality of society.

Wht makes you think it is?
That’s ■■■■■■■ awful.
Because your side has selective outrage when it comes to violent crime.
‘our side’ didn’t make this thread.
