    Oh I'm sure he was just protecting his property, or defending his freedoms, or standing up to a tyrannical government, or, or, or...

    • don't you people ever get tired of acting like scumbags. it's as if you people are glad when these tragedies happen the way you blurt out sarcastic drivel every

    • god damned time. have some respect for the dead you smarmy piece of shit
      ********
    • Have respect for the dead? I'd rather not see innocent people die. That's where my position is. If you TRULY cared, you wouldn't be so pro-gun.iCanHazQBN
    • Your mentality is: People get shot, then you pretend to be sad, but then you STILL wave your guns around with pride. That's moronic, to the extreme.iCanHazQBN
    • How fucking dare you think that I'm "glad" this happened. I don't post hundreds of messages being anti-gun because I want people to get shot...iCanHazQBN
    • ...that's stupid.iCanHazQBN
    • It's really fucked up. You tryany excuse to justify owning guns, then when innocent people die you accuse the other side of being "glad" it happened.iCanHazQBN
    • I suggest you go see a psychiatrist or admit yourself into a mental institution.iCanHazQBN
    • this is a sad occurrence of the failure of our culture and medical health professionals but in stead of addressing that you make a smarmy dig at inanimate objec
      ********
    • objects because it suits your political agenda, you sir, are despicable
      ********
    • Inanimate objects? I'd say they're a little more than a spoon.iCanHazQBN
    • The point is, are we going to catch EVERY person with a mental issue? Are we going to stop EVERY person who decides to kill in the heat of the moment??? No.iCanHazQBN
    • gilgamush, it's a moral discussion that will never end, between two oxymoronic positions, totally arguable, BOTH; carrying intense feelings and standpoints thatmaquito
    • And if you want to improve the healthcare system, that requires the raising taxes, which is out of the question for most gun-nuts.iCanHazQBN
    • ..can easily be taken off-context and/or being put into personal judgement.maquito
    • "oxymoronic", I forgot the quotation marks. I totally invented that word.maquito
    • The idea that we can monitor every person's behavior, feelings, and actions is stupid. We can't. We can't know that some dude is plotting to shoot hisiCanHazQBN
    • wife next Monday. But guns are physical tangible object that can be removed from the equation.iCanHazQBN
    • Imagine some psycho is pointing a gun at you. Are you going to try to remove the gun from the equation, or attempt to perform a therapy session on him?iCanHazQBN
    • I kind of agree with you, iCanHaz, on this one. But what about me, possessing a gun, and only using it for sport? Am I responsible?maquito
    • Behavior and psychosis are issues that have been around since the beginning of humanity. Some people are just wired wrong...iCanHazQBN
    • Besides, if you "take the guns from the equation", I'll lose my hobby. Why? I don't shoot people, I don't even shoot living things. Nor CARRY the gun.maquito
    • You can't just simply "fix" some people. But we can remove this tangible object to prevent these sick people from mass-killing.iCanHazQBN
    • That'd be like carrying a batt with you to the mall because you enjoy baseball..maquito
    • Maquito, with regard to your sport. Imagine that your gun performed exactly what you wanted.. Point, Shoot, Hit a target.. but it wasn't deadly...iCanHazQBN
    • Would you still be interested in the sport? Or is the idea that it's deadly a factor in your interest in the sport?iCanHazQBN
    • You absolutely can smash someone's brains out with a batt. Ban batts? No, much better: let's ban baseball.maquito
    • I'm saying what if it was a "simulated" bullet. Or a type of laser-shot. Or a rubber bullet. Something that accurately executed everything a gun does..iCanHazQBN
    • Regarding the sport: airsoft guns (scarab pointed out a good example in my "guns" thread"). That's be a good solution.maquito
    • ...but it wasn't deadly. I have a feeling gun people still wouldn't go for this idea, simply for the fact that the macho/deadly aspect of the gun doesn't exist.iCanHazQBN
    • But it's not considered an olympic, neither any other kind of sport... shooting targets with a bearing ball...maquito
    • With regard to bats being dangerous.. If this guy brought a bat to school, the headline might read "one person seriously injured" instead of "15 people dead".iCanHazQBN
    • You can hurt people with many things. The point is guns are much more effective in taking out a lot of people. And running from one does nothing.iCanHazQBN
    • I understand what you are saying, and sadly the macho-gun-powdered thing escalated very much... But it's NOT my thing. I don't instagram my guns..maquito
    • I'm not sure what you mean by "not considered an olympic sport". You mean my idea of a simulated bullet?iCanHazQBN
    • Your point is clear. And it's very sad to watch in the news how the society came to a breaking point in which this whole thing truly makes me rethink a lot.maquito
    • Oh you mean Airsoft not considered an Olympic sport. If that's what you meant... so what? Are you planning to go to the Olympics?iCanHazQBN
    • No, I meant shooting the airsoft replicas. It's not the same difficulty, nor the required skills.maquito
    • lol, no. I don't... I got your point, and I truly agree in many levels.maquito
    • in the future, don't be sarcastic and smarmy when trying to politicize tragedies. it's a scumbag move. guns aren't going anywhere anytime soon so have all the t
