They are, that's why Chicago is way down the list when it comes to gun crime rate. How dumb do you have to be to keep picking on Chicago when there are so many worse cities where guns are not restricted?

It's very important. The 2nd protects all other rights. Hobbyist? Pfft.
Shall not be infringed.

All Democrat run. Chicago gets what it deserves for repeatedly reelecting Democrats.
Democrats are just evil or stupid or both.

It is not important whatsoever. The rest of the world isn't so pathetically insecure, paranoid and full of fear that they have to write guns into their constitution, yet you can still have guns in many other countries.

Keep your guns, I already told you I don't care about them, but it's about time we ditched the 2nd and put guns in their place. No more important (and much less useful) than a hammer or a power drill.

Yes. Hobbyists - that's all gun owners are. Just because they go bang and make weak people think they are hard doesn't make them somehow more elevated than knitting needles or a set of bongos. Get over yourself, FFS.

Says the libertarian. That's ****ing hilarious. What's Aleppo?

Anyway, I've got to go in a minute. OF - I still love you, I hope you know that. You play your part so well it would be remiss of me not to respond in kind.

Except, other than the bits directed at you, I do mean it. Guns mean **** all squared in the real world. If people would only admit they own them because they are cool, and they have fun with them, I'd respect it a whole lot more than the 'sovereign citizen' BS

Love and hugs, etc.

Peace out. Have a good weekend. Gotta prepare the Ural for the St Patrick's Day parade tomorrow.

Cool Has the sidecar got a gun mount on it?

SultanOfSwing

There you go. Motorbikes are much cooler than guns anyway.

Video console death: US boy, 9, 'kills sister, 13, over controller' - BBC News

If only this kid didn't have such easy access to video games, this never would have happened...

Nutek

Lack of access is what caused it though. He needed the remote.

Lion in Winter

If he had been properly trained to handle guns in kindergarten, this might never have happened.


Still, at least the US knows how to deal with children who cause trouble. No softness on crime here.

On March 14th kids all over the country took 17 minutes to honor the lives lost in Parkland, FL and protest all gun violence. They walked out of their schools to tell this country that enough is enough.

So Trump was right then; video games do cause shootings.

I would say poverty caused this. The family could only afford to buy one controller.

SultanOfSwing

It was caused by the cancer that is online multiplayer. Consoles always used to ship with two controllers ...
