Good guy with a gun kills 9 year old girl

[WuWei]

There have been 4 armed robberies at that same ATM in the past bit.

What are the police doing to “serve and protect”?

Hopefully the Lott hypothesis bears out

U.S. gun sales surge to record high in 2020

[WuWei]

It already has.

Bad decision and he missed. He is responsible.

Does that bring the little girl back? This is what happens when you want everyone playing good guy with a gun in the street.

What an ignorant statement. This man’s irresponsible person’s decision to keep shooting after the threat he faced was over has nothing to do with anyone else being armed. He and he alone is responsible for his actions.

@WuWei

The question is, what do you want?

What I want is not people taking the law into their own hands out on the street.

Don’t you want people to quit breaking the law so nobody is faced with a situation where they may have to defend themselves?

It’s like anything else. Everyone has a car, right? We expect them to be responsible, not drink and drive, not go 100 in a 25 mile an hour zone, but when they do and someone dies as a result, we don’t advocate for no one owning cars.

And we do not advocate no one owning guns. We put laws in place to protect people.
AKA, regulations.

But the religion and worship of the 2nd, nullifies everything else. Sometimes…literally.

No we don’t. Laws are enacted to control people and define what is unacceptable behavior and/or activity by the people.

The Constitution, on the other hand, is a limitation on the behavior of the Government. It’s high time that you recognized that adherence to the letter of the Constitution defines this country and has nothing whatsoever to do with religion or worship.

People are going to have to as the soft on crime stance only protects the criminals.

We have put more people in prison in the last 40 years, than any other country on the planet.

You think putting more in prison will help?

Sure. It was directly responsible for the decline in violent crime in the eighties through the 2000s. It is only since the social experiment if bring soft on criminals that we have seen the resurgence in crime against persons.

Speed laws are not to reduce accidents? thus protecting people?
Just to name one…

Regarding the worshipping of the 2nd amendment, I do not give a crap…except that it is weird, and kind of creepy.

Wow…crime rates shot up in the 80’s and 90’s…

Look it up.

Speed laws do nothing. Enforcement of speed laws reduce accidents.

Yes, we are fully aware that you don’t give a crap about the Constitution. But thanks for admitting it.

No they didn’t. Look it up. Besides, I said the decline began in the 80s, not in 1980.

I don’t give a crap about gun nutter’s obsession with the 2nd.

You probably think money = speech…like the cons on the SCOTUS believe.

Correct?

No they didn’t.

The Constitution is not a list of optional rights … a menu from which you can pick and choose. Either it all applies, or none of it does. If you don’t want to pay heed to the 2nd Amendment, then you don’t get free speech or the right to a trial if accused of a crime.

I would be, but I’m not. Violent crime fell steadily from the peak in the late 80s until 2018.

Google exists and you are still wrong.

Amazing, but not surprising
