The quote: "Six people were killed in a shooting early Sunday morning during a birthday party at a Colorado Springs, Colorado, mobile home, according to police.
The suspected shooter -- believed to be a boyfriend of one of the victims -- is also dead, police said."

The comment: Guns again. 6 more dead in a single incident. Our daily rate is still almost 100 dead from gunshot.

Guess what? The governor tweeted 'thoughts and prayers'.

Regards, stay safe 'n well ... 'n un-shot.

There doesnt seem to be much that's more dangerous than a rejected or jealous man. Or just an angry man. That story hasnt changed since prehistoric times.

Maybe males should learn to manage their emotions better? There will always be weapons for them to act on their loser shit...we need them to control themselves, period.

Some weapons make it much easier to kill large numbers than others

Men have always been able to efficiently wipe out their families and competitor males. No firearms required.

Young men seem to struggle more about being men than young men used to. If there was ever a rite of passage for young American men I doubt such a thing exists anymore.

I'm not sure "Man up and deal with it" is a ready option for young men today in a world of gender confusion, social extremism, shite jobs and shite pay, monumental education debt and living with your mom and dad after high school.

Guns are not the way out. That much we know, but unfortunately gun violence is very much an option for emotionally challenged young American men.

If you look at history, men have always been violent and always wiped out their families and competitor males. In other countries with fewer laws re: violence and gender equality, that violence is still very common. (I cant say it's not very common here in the US either).

IMO civilization needs to advance to the point where men learn to handle their emotions and stop abusing and killing other people because they cant.

Except now they have easy access to guns to help them take many more bodies with them as they go out.

As the stats bear out, no weapon is as effective at murdering thousands as are guns.

Colorado, infected by an influx of coastal lefties, became a gun hating haven. Apparently that didn't help, so I am sure the bannerrhoids will want more and more gun laws

what nonsense. Bombs can kill thousands in an instant A gun cannot.
 
Seems people have lost their minds and / or their self control / respect for laws and / or society and / or others.

Firearms only require him to move a finger and point. Other "traditional" methods require physical work, skill, or planning.

Ah, so reading about six dead people only brings out the "bannerhoid" quotes.

well we did have your post (#7) using the deaths to advance your anti gun agenda

Except people by the dozen each day are not using bombs, Now, are they?

I'll answer for you. They don't. They murder thousands with guns. Deaths for which the rabid gun advocates are not faultless.

Ah, but at least I am not lying. You were.
sure you were lying. Claiming thousands are killed by thousands of guns, does not prove that A GUN is good for killing thousands, unlike a bomb. cars kill more, are you going to claim cars are better for killing thousands than a bomb?

There were at least two guys in my county who came home from a night of cheating that their woman let them go to sleep and then shot them in the head.

Jealousy is an evil thing...

Our criminal justice system needs to be focused more on achieving justice for the victims of those who are incarcerated.
The quality of life of those who are imprisoned should be no more than what the collective means of those imprisoned are capable of providing.
The cost to taxpayers should extend only to the construction of the facility and the wages paid those to run it.
Prisons, and life within them should be the last place in the world anyone would want to be, and those who serve less than life sentences should leave them with great fear of returning.
I have no problem with a death penalty for those who during the commission of a crime in which they were a participant, results in the loss of a life.
Execution should simply be carried out by anesthetizing, followed by blood-letting.

The spending on our prison systems could/should be redirected to our school systems.

The deflection to cars is pathetic and stupid. Cars serve a purpose other than to kill. People need cars to get to work and home. So, of course their use is more widespread in society since they are a necessity to get through life. Guns are not needed to get through everyday life and they have a different purpose. So, your deflection to cars is a transparent attempt to redirect the conversation away from gun control, a proven method of reducing gun violence.

guns serve many purposes other than to kill so your entire argument is worthless.
 
Wound/kill what else?
are you that ignorant of all the shooting sports from Olympic Free Rifle to 3 Gun action shooting?
