YOU made the statement. I'm taking you task for it. Don't like it? Tough.
Remember that the topic here is specifically about me and the gun I might buy for my daughter. Your statement references me, specifically, as did the "that's sick' statement you responded to.
Show that I will not lock up my gun and that my daughter will have an accident, or retract your statement to that effect.
I did. Several times. In the context that they were made.You are strawmanning me. You are misrepresenting my words. Quote my statements that you accuse me of making.
The thread didn't drift that far. -You- weren't paying attention.Threads drift. Sorry if I wasn't focused on you.
Statistical significance.I'm not for banning the AR-15.
I don't know how many. What is your threshold?
I don't think anyone here would agree that gun use while intoxicated is a good idea.

Deputy's child accidentally shoots himself in face : News : KRCG

2-Year-Old Boy Shoots Mother, Father Charged - wcco.com
There are many stories out there like these. Like a year ago there was a thread here about the 2 year old shooting and killing his father who was a police officer after he had taken his belt off and laid it on the table.
This one is really old, but interesting.
1914: Child accidentally shot by playmate | AspenTimes.com
if you could pull statistics ts for children deaths with linkin logs i am sure you could find a few.
How about power outlets, how many children have stuck objects into them and have died ... we can't ban power from houses if you have children.
just because a child could hurt him self, does not make owning a gun unsafe. Like i said earlier lots of things in a home could be considered unsafe.
Without a firearm in the home, you have no protection from criminal elements. The police are a reaction force, not a protection force.
How many more children would die from accidental shooting if all guns were painted like toys?
I don't have any studies to cite that children are more inclined to play with a gun painted like a toy over one that looks like an actual firearm.
I think it's a dangerous thing to paint them that way. I know enough drunken hillbillies that don't practice gun safety. I see no need to add insult to injury so to speak. People may disagree with me.
That's okay too.
Should power outlets look like toys?
Speculation
i think it is not smart either. but your hysteria over accidental shootings is unwarranted....
in 2004 there were 189 I believe. and that included suicides and cases of abuse.
tragic, but statistically nill.
Yes, I am being so hysterical. :roll:
How many civilian Americans were killed by terrorists on U.S. soil in 2004? Statistically nil.
How many would make it statistically significant enough for you?
949 died of drowning last year. Let's ban drowning.
Twice as many kids died from football than guns, Lets ban footbal.
yes you are being a little hysterical my friend.
You are being intellectually dishonest by calling me hysterical.
Do you think we should have hard liquor and cigarette ads on TV again?
How is my opinion of your position being "intellectually dishonest"? I await your explanation, maybe we can all learn from this. Thanks!
We have hard liquor ads on tv.
Now should we ban Football?

yes you are being a little hysterical my friend.
Another drive-by posting, eh?Typical of the ironic refusal of the gun lobby to accept responsibility for their firearms. If anything causes the banning of guns, it will be the gun owners' obstruction of reasonable firearms control.
Which post am I being hysterical in? Thanks.
We don't have hard liquor ads fully. Up to a certain percentage of alcohol they permit. Smirnoff Ice and Jack Daniels wine coolers aren't hard liquor.
No we shouldn't ban football. It is regulated with safety in mind though.
Should we go back to leather helmets with no face masks like the founding fathers intended? :rofl

If you're SO right on this issue, why don't you stand and actually debate, rather than spam and run?
What are you on about? :rofl
Why don't you address the issue of gun owners demonstrating the least responsibility over the control of firearms?
Is English beyond your comprehension?
That's your claim. Its for you to support.Why don't you address the issue of gun owners demonstrating the least responsibility over the control of firearms?
Yes, but not during prime time. I believe advertising is a paid form of expression and is therefore protected, if you don't want to drink or smoke the ads won't shouldn't have any sway on you.You are being intellectually dishonest by calling me hysterical.
Do you think we should have hard liquor and cigarette ads on TV again?
No, it will be sheepish morons giving other people's rights away.Typical of the ironic refusal of the gun lobby to accept responsibility for their firearms. If anything causes the banning of guns, it will be the gun owners' obstruction of reasonable firearms control.
