    Gun control

    You can't talk about specific topics in a vacumn because 99% of human reality is influenced and interconnected by external influences. as such the scientific method of cause and effect is inferior to systems analysis. Peoples perceptions of reality shape their behavoir greatly. I look at...

    Gun control

    Strange and difficult I accept without question, but illogical? what most people pass around as 'logic' is infact faith, they prescribe a faith in a source and repeat it without challenging it. Like for example, if you have faith in the FDA you would use the FDA or FDA backed institutions one...

    All I did was provide one example, which the fear would be at gun point escorted into a prison (not economic). At which point you retreated and narrowed your arguments scope, retreat is also the first sign of a losing. here is another government agency that is obviously crooked corrupt and...

    I say things that aren't 'politically correct' because I recognize that as social control and engineering. You for example either consciously or (probably)subconsciously aggrandise pedophilia.

    gun handlers in the police cannot be above a certain IQ level, let me repeat that so you can talk about armed morons again. THE POLICE WILL NOT HIRE ANYONE ABOVE AN IQ OF 106 or so. just smart enough to be able to handle the equipment, dumb enough not to figure out and question their...

    Try not paying the illegal income taxes from an amendment never ratified, we'll see how quickly anyone learns to fear an government out of control. Before the income tax government had to learn to live on only on excise taxes and tariffs. If those conditions where still true the government...

    What's wrong about wishing you could do that and everybody around you wasn't so callow, weak willed and terrified of their own shadow that it would not be considered a big deal? I would argue you sir have gone insane by placing an infinite value on life, that has setup a paralyzing and...

    the automatic portion of the assault rifle is for the assault action where you close distance, for medium/short range fire. you are right though at most combat distances the single shot bolt action rifle is more effective, the Taliban for example early in the war had an advantage over NATO...

    Suggestion for amazing LAN games?

    that knight game chivalry was a smashing success at my last lan, it's midevil combat, the slow pace of combat allows for lots of drawn out battles and fighting your friends with large swords clanging with blood gurgling if it connects never gets old.

    yes I do know what it means, It fits the bandwagon way people argue for gun control perfectly. Megalomania is a psychopathological disorder characterized by delusional fantasies of power, relevance, or omnipotence. 'Megalomania is characterized by an inflated sense of self-esteem and...

    AL Qaeda doesn't exist like most people think it does. it's not an organization, anything that resembled an organization is dead in the mountains of Afghanistan, at this point it is an idea, that gives you street credibility in Arab lands and power when mentioned in western lands.

    that statement probably isn't true. Also you cannot place an infinite value to human life, In fact human life, even peoples own lives, is valued by most everyone in practice as rather cheap. There is a clear moral hazard when put a value on peoples lives. That's why this emotional...

    that's bordering on megalomaniacal to even say you even could take all the guns away. The Problem is violence crime and murder. And as such you wouldn't even treating the disease by taking all the guns away, just the symptoms. I cant understand the rational that on one hand says urban crime...

    Gun control

    There is a major point missed with gun statistics. if you take guns away. Deaths by means other than a gun go up, and theft goes up alot which can lead to deaths. none of those will show up on those charts. the gun wasn't called "peacemaker" and "the great equalizer"for nothing.

    How the hell do you know who made it or why, or that , that person drenched in propaganda isn't just willingly passing along the message. that's part of it too, people pick up the message from leader and pass it along.
