Kennedy 0 #109 June 11, 2010 I didn't say it was a yes or no, I asked if you thought the firearms in those three incidents should be "impounded" since they appear to violate local laws. It can be a yes or no, but no one demanded you answer with just one word. If you've got more of an answer I'd love to hear it because it seems you spend a lit of time trying not to say anything yourself while criticizing others. And to answer your question, I've never beat my wife, so since I never started, there's nothing to stop. So how about it, an answer, or another response full of sound and fury signifying nothing?witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skypuppy 1 #112 June 11, 2010 QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteDon't you think it would be handy to KNOW that the new FELON has a gun, and what it is? The police should approach every felon as if they might be armed, regardless of whether or not their name is in some gun registry. Agreed. It would also be nice to know that said FELON had any (previously legal) guns hidden away. It makes no difference - they should still approach him as if he does. Of course it makes a difference. He may be out of prison in 6 months and just goes to pick up his stash of guns. Which, if they were illegally obtained and not registered, would not show up on the cop's screens anyway, so, as he said, it makes no difference if there are guns registered, they must treat them as if they do have guns. Even if some are registered and they confiscate them, that doesn't mean they don't have more. So again, the registry is useless.If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme.

skypuppy 1 #116 June 11, 2010 perhaps the best analogy is the failure of prohibition in the states in the 1920's. A bad law which was ignored by over half the population (making criminals of them), which resulted only in the creation of millionaire rum-runners and beer-barons. You are saying that the majority of these law-breakers who enjoyed a beer or two deserved to made criminals? At least prohibition did create one thing worthwhile. Cocktails were created to when something was needed to mask the chemical taste of homemade hooch....If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme. Otherwise he'd already be dead.

And his demands to rephrase the question to his liking are just a ploy to harass and frustate the pro-gun folks. I'm sure that no matter how the question is phrased, it will never be good enough, and kallend will just continue to make excuses to not answer a simple question. You would think that a college professor would have a good ability to explain things to people, but somehow that apparently is not true in this case. Despite explaining complex engineering details to students all year long, somehow this simple question is just too difficult for him to handle! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
