    The Dark Knight Rises

    I never saw this movie. I saw that dumb mask in the trailers chuckled and immediately stopped giving a shit.

    Gun control

    AHAHAHAHA "I could tell he wanted to" You're hilarious. Are republican policies going to stop being terrible for black people with a white woman running? No? Oh ok.

    Murders and Shootings

    An easy definition that avoids nukes is whether or not it can be used without interfering with someone else. Just from the radiation release alone nukes don't qualify.

    Murders and Shootings

    Honestly I didn't even understand what you were saying. My wat was pretty genuine. "Dangerous to the public" is an extremely loaded insinuation to level when it comes to guns. They're not some kind of toxin. Most of the time (and by "most of the time" I mean "so close to always as to be...

    Murders and Shootings

    It's equal in the sense that I don't think I should be prevented from owning a baseball bat because someone else might use it to kill the shit out of people. The same argument applies to drugs or cars or anything else that might be risky. That argument only stops when you get into the realm of...

    There's nothing illegitimate about owning a firearm for fun, retard.

    Murders and Shootings

    I think you mean 70.45% of that are from firearms for the US and 22.22% of that are from firearms for Europe. Also you don't have to say "for every 1 person" when you're giving statistics about the population.

    Murders and Shootings

    1. What the gun was "made for" has fuck all to do with anything. Cars are made for driving, but that doesn't prevent me from deliberately running people over with one. The fact of the matter is the vast (and I mean fucking vast) majority of gun owners (and those in sufficient proximity to use...

    Murders and Shootings

    Well you're retarded and nobody gives a shit what you think. That's not even remotely how the burden works here, retard. You're the one arguing for forcible government action in the lives of million of people who've never hurt anyone with a firearm on the basis that someone else might. You're...

    Murders and Shootings

    Actually they're a lot of fun. If you don't think shooting is fun, you've never done it (or you're just someone that can't let himself accept fun for stupid political reasons). Why? Because you say so? Fuck you.

    Murders and Shootings

    Yeah because people only buy guns to kill other people and there's never a legitimate reason why they'd need to kill someone. That's just obvious, right? Right. You're not talking about banning guns, you're just talking about banning every class of gun that you don't like. Got it. That's...

    Murders and Shootings

    Is there a reason anybody needs anything other than a minivan? There are reasons to defend rights (even when they sometimes manifest in shitty ways) that have nothing to do with what a bunch of hat-and-shoe-bucklers thought.

    Murders and Shootings

    If you think getting rid of the guns in America is as "simple" a proposition as repealing the 2nd amendment and passing whatever federal/state prohibition laws, you are wrong. If our goal is to save lives, it behooves us to look at the cost effectiveness of attacking the various causes of death...

    Murders and Shootings

    The number of steps between here and "banning guns" is ridiculously long and difficult and violent. You can't just snap your fingers and put the genie back in the bottle.

    Murders and Shootings

    The particulars of getting to a world where "he didn't have them" ("he" being a stand-in for the next lunatic) are relevant to the question of whether we ought to bother in a way that is not addressed by this sort of crude analysis. Equally relevant is the overall probability of such events...

    Movies That Would Be Made, If You Could Make It Happen

    That description cracks me up. There's a whole other (kinda shitty) half of that book. Ideally that wouldn't be part of the movie though.

    Movies That Would Be Made, If You Could Make It Happen

    Snow Crash is an interesting one. I think you'd need to explain in the opening crawl how old that book is to make people understand how crazily prescient it was.

    Shooting a paintball gun is not like shooting a real gun and reasonable people own plenty of other deadly things for entertainment.

    Could we use the same line of argument for "people who've spent a day at a gun-range?"

    Gunman opens fire at Oregon mall outside of Portland

    Anyway, this is boring. The point is, if I take you at your word now you still haven't addressed his argument that it's trivial to find cases where the security created by government regulation increases freedom rather removing it. Your whole counter-argument has to do with the the ways that...

    Gunman opens fire at Oregon mall outside of Portland

    Well the context of the original post was traffic laws and your counter-argument ALSO included a potential violation of traffic laws. I assumed you were addressing that point specifically as PART of your larger point because doing so is sort of important. Why? Because if he can establish...
