ORIGINAL: Lucylastic There is obviously no death toll high enough. Actually, you are wrong. But then the same argument can be made for many preventable deaths. I just find it hypocritical of those that claim there is no comparison. what is high enough? I didnt claim a comparison so shove it up your arse What is the number Jlf? is it written somewhere or is it an unknown You wanna ignore it until it suits you? Trying to Prevent death is part of life, except....for gun maniacs. And Im not calling all gun owners maniacs either. Reducing risks is a good idea, but not apparently when it comes to a violent death by gun and its holder You want to prevent some of the crap that has happened in the US, then get the shit for brains anti gun lobby to first admit that there is a simple and easily fixed explanation as to why the present system is not working. There is already at least one documented case, Virginia tech, where the shooter would not have been able to buy the two guns he used to kill 32 people IF the fucking back ground check had that information that his therapist, the institution that kept him on a 72 hour observation had to send that information to the National Crime Information System database! When Virginia passed a law making that mandatory, the ACLU immediately filed suit on grounds of invasion of privacy and violation of doctor patient privilege. Thank god it was ruled that the right to safety by the general public trumps the right to privacy. That has not stopped Dems and lobbyists from fighting bills that would make it a federal law. So, basically what I am saying is FIX THE LAWS WE HAVE NOW BEFORE ADDING A SHIT TON MORE THAT EITHER LEADS TO AN OUTRIGHT BAN OR SEVERELY IMPACTS THE RIGHTS OF GUN OWNERS! Is that so fucking hard to understand. Evidently it is, because you, and the other anti gun members of this board have yet to address the problem, and instead want more laws, that if the original problem is not fixed, there is no way stricter background checks, multiple purchases being flagged or anything else is going to work, short of an out right ban on private ownership. Which, by my understanding, none of you want the problem fixed, you want the guns banned and all gun owners treated like potential criminals for owning guns.
