Well if it went from 3.72 dollars per 100,000 earned to 4.91 dollars per 100,000 earned I wouldn't mind it. It's amazing how some people think it should be compared to per 100,000 Until percentages sound better for them.

turtlespeed 212 #178 October 12, 2015 wmw999If 80% of gun violence is among thugs, that doesn't really make it OK. It does make it less likely to affect us (most of the Americans on this forum are probably white and middle-class). But by assigning the impacts to another group, we devalue them. Personally, I agree with you about both ends and the fact that there's a middle ground. Where it is, of course, is a matter of opinion. But I do think that we, as Americans, need to own the effects of fun violence as ours, and not just as belonging to ghetto-dwellers. Wendy P.

wmw999 2,166 #179 October 12, 2015 Damn you, auto-correct (or just plain tupo ) I guess if I were an NRA member maybe it would be fun violence Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Who the hell are you responding to with these? Forget who you are bsing? And Were ANY who were legal to carry involved and ANY of these shooting? These are nothing about the laws just more of you bs Also No proposed law or strengthening of any existing law would have stopped/prevented ANY of the mass shooting in the last two years!
