  1. No, they don’t. [emoji849]
  2. Any riffle. AR, AK47, shotgun, 30.06 etc etc etc.
  3. Nope. Dads gun till the kid is 21. Then, back ground check, etc on the kid and a legal transfer. If not done this way and 21 year old goes nuts, that’s still dads gun and dad is also responsible. Gun ownership should be HARD.
  4. And wrecks. Outside of that, it’s a parade.
  5. Right… that would go under the part of it should be really hard to own a gun. Part of that would be an age limit. Also, I have no idea if it would work. Taking all the guns away ship sailed long, long ago. Let’s try SOMETHING between making it easier to get a gun and taking them all away. If these ideas (let’s start with the 4 Beto mentioned), fine - we try again. I’m tired of the gun nuts bullshit of “that won’t work…”
  6. I don’t have a problem with people owning any gun. I just think it should be really, really hard to do. It should also come with the agreement that your ability to own can be removed at any time, down to one shotgun for home protection. Also, if your gun is used in a crime, you go down too.
  7. Chicago is 28th on the list for deaths per capita in the US. Chattanooga, TN is 29. Chicago is a big city with big city problems and it’s bullshit when it’s brought up. I believe Cleveland is #1 and Cinci is #2.
  8. Beto confronts Abbott… Cruz and co have words.
  9. The Onion is spot on… amazing. https://www.theonion.com
  10. Thank you for the responses. You folks put into words what I couldn’t.
  11. Can someone explain to me the “let’s not politicize this tragedy right now” bullshit? It seems that’s the circle the wagons line that gets brought out over and over. If not now, when?
  12. Got it. Haven’t had my coffee yet and reality hasn’t set in.
  13. At this point, there has to be enough people to vote against gov wheels that he’s out, right??
  14. Did you and do you vote Republican? If so, this is on you and those like you and you’re OK with kids dying based on your continued support of a party that hasn’t done shit since Columbine on gun control.
  15. Christ… no, it’s not. It’s 50/48/2.
  16. It’s really, really easy. In fact I was given an AR. No back ground check, no license, no classes, no registration… nada…. Can we at least start by out lawing ALL OF THAT?? It shouldn’t be that easy. I’d gladly register mine, take a mental health exam, etc etc etc if there was even a sliver of a chance it would keep a kid from dying. I’ll turn it in too. I just think there are things we can do between confiscation (because the reality of that happening is zero) and doing nothing.
  17. Where are our gun apologists? The ones that are fine with kids dying.
  18. It goes back farther than Regan. Nixon and the Southern Strategy nailed fear based ads / rhetoric that black people were at fault for the troubles in the US.
  19. I’m really hoping Merc is back and legitimately fast again. I am also good with Charles / Carlos and Ferrari winning. I just don’t want Red Bull winning another championship of any kind.
  20. A mess / nightmare depending on where you park. Get helicoptered in and you’re good.
  21. I think he was sitting under his umbrella in the back of the truck for the drivers parade
  22. No shit. I have family that needed to be on government assistance. They also needed financial help from my family and our parents. But, hey, according to fatty, they were just lazy. No way could it could be anything else.
  23. It’s that American exceptionalism Kool-aid they all drink.
  24. You said easiest place in the world… it’s the easiest if your a white male.
