The gun used in Vegas might not have been an automatic!

WOW, if that is the case, then they had better be watching Rick Harrison very closely.

He has a lot of guns and he also lives in Vegas.

And I have little doubt that a visit to his shop and home would resolve any questions.

Could we same the same about the Vegas killer?

I don't know, can we?

Does anybody know?

Unless we try, we will never know about the next one or the one after that or the one after that or the one after that or the one after that or the one after that or the one after that.
 

Or entertainment, which is how most guns are used. 300 million guns in the country, and relatively rarely are they used to kill people or even hunt. Most people probably dont even fire them, they just like collecting. In fact, theres only 11k or so murders by firearm in the country every year. That means theres hundred of millions of guns not being used to murder people.
 
So that is a NO - the Court is not infallible and is sometimes not correct.

Not what I said. I said you and your ilk believe they are infallible when they decide in favor of the stupid **** you promote.

That is not an answer. Is the Court infallible? Are they always right?
 

I know several people who own over 40 firearms and not one single one has ever shot anyone. There are a lot of deer, elk, moose, ducks, quail, chuckar, geese, etc. that have died, but not one single person has ever been shot by these folks. They are stable family men and women, with good jobs and are a positive influence in the community.
 

The question is even if you could somehow ban guns, would he have done something else? Use a truck or a bomb or poison or some other means. Maybe kill people one at a time using mailbombs or anthrax?
 

I am sure that is true. So what? What should be the warning sign of too many guns? A hundred? Five hundred? A thousand? Ten thousand?

If there is roughly one gun for every American that means a person with 42 guns (and that is all we know today) has 42 times the average number. Should that not trigger at least an inquiry?
 

Not together I hope... :shock:

So we do nothing because there is always an alternative?

The reality is that guns like the ones used by the Vegas killer make it easy to kill large numbers from afar.

lolz... Not as a habit, but I can't say it never happened either...hehe.... It can get boring up North when you're a teenager...or when you've been sitting on the side of a trail for a couple days and have only seen chipmunks and blue jays....
 
God directed Noah to kill all the people on earth except his immediate family and a couple other animals. The largest mass murder in history. Noah did as told. Probably not the best role models.

Noah didn't kill anyone... :roll:
 
Just shows you how much atheists know about the Bible. Noah didn't kill everyone on earth but his family. Learn something today if you can.

Only Noah, his wife, his three sons and their wives were safe on the Ark. Except these 8 people [1 Peter 3:20], every other person died.

That's my understanding. Why don't you enlighten me?
 

Your premise is faulty. Owning more guns than you think a person should own is not a warning sign.

Could it be a warning sign? Is it possible it is a warning sign?
