    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    This is what I have been getting at with others in this forum - there are significant shortfalls in the system. My question has continually been: how do we fix these? In additional; sex offenders (who I believe should be prohibited persons) are able to legally acquire a gun in some...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    As mentioned previously, I am not supportive of a utopian approach to this. Some people may accept the cost, however this doesn't mean the status quo must remain. There are shortfalls in a lot of road regulations which could be improved, notably a significant improvement in the policing of...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    So you are now accepting my point and acknowledging shortfalls in the system - thus a constructive discussion around regulatory change can happen. What does your hypothetical crime bring to this discussion exactly? We have established the following; 1- There are shortfalls in the system...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    Lets actually look at my 'entire claim' and correct the record: - You are claiming that I am false in saying there are age restrictions for people wanting to drive a car? - You are claiming that I am false in saying that your driving record can restrict your ability to get a license? - You are...

    I appreciate your rational and logical approach to this - there are very few people who can actually debate the substance of the matter. So thank you.

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    Once again you have proven incapable of reading my response - it is quite frustrating when I answered your question and then you blatantly ignore it. I will repeat my statement - No - I have indicated that I believe guns are weapons. In addition, I have said that a projectile from a gun can...

    [W:252] Most American households have gun owners, poll shows: ‘Stunning number’

    You have ignored everything I have said - do you support proactive or reactive measures to domestic violence? Happy to have a debate about this, but what evidence do you have to support this claim? It is easy to make any sort of statement to support your view, but if you have no evidence to...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    You still haven't answered my question and thus prove you are deflecting any sort of accountability here - I ask again: What is stopping a violent felon from purchasing a gun from a guy in an alley or from another private seller? You are comparing different scenarios - that is a criminal act to...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    Thank you for your flippant remarks - however I will correct my wording and say 'to use a motor vehicle' and acknowledge that the statement was inaccurate. This still underpins my claim that motor vehicles are more regulated than guns.

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    No - I have indicated that I believe guns are weapons. In addition, I have said that a projectile from a gun can either miss an object/living thing, injure an object/living think or kill an object/living thing I haven't seen this - happy for you to post it in the comment and I will respond. No...

    [W:252] Most American households have gun owners, poll shows: ‘Stunning number’

    I made this statement to highlight the ridiculousness of another claim, that arming domestic violence victims would save their lives. I also said the following in addition to the above: Rather than unjustified reactive responses, lets put in place services for those subjected to domestic...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    I didn't compare it in this way - I was drawing a distinction between regulated activities in society and pointed out that guns should be regulated differently to cars. As I said in another post: There are restrictions on who can own a car, let me run through them for you: - Age restrictions -...

    Yes, I am sensing this ridiculous magic trick of misdirection. It is representative of political spin; reword the function and the problems will disappear.

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    It is written in this thread, and I repeat you quoted part of my response. When you quote part of someones response, you can morph their words into anything. You have disagreed with me and made misleading statements. Yes they can, I don't disagree with you - this doesn't prove anything...

    Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds

    Once again, you have refuted it with no evidence, laws, court rulings or expert analysis - how difficult it is to back up what you are saying with something? This is simply wrong - you cannot just make these broad statements founded on baseless claims. I respectfully say, you must be living in...
