[OFFICIAL] Gun Control Thread

[Sicarus]

It's not that I do not like all the laws. I do not agree with Gun Laws here. However as of now they do not affect me either directly or indirectly it's not that big of a deal to actually pack up my things or serious enough that I should move simply because I have a different point of view then some people on a certain law. Why are you so aggressively suggesting I move outside of Texas.

Assault weapons are legal all over the United States. Texas just has a more relaxed position. It doesn't irate me to point I actually need to move because of it.

It definitely irates you to the point of having an absolute unwavering opinion on "ban all gunz!" despite saying you're "open to discussion", which, you've been proven wrong a lot, but still have that point of view.

Why do you aggressively suggest I not allow myself to be safe?

I haven't been proven wrong alot that is factually incorrect sole decider.

Secondly. I never said ban all weapons. I said assault weapons then I said at least background checks and High Capacity Magazines. Till this point the suggestion I should move outside of Texas because of my position on guns is different then some have been amusing. However I do not feel this is an actual debate on anything serious.

We're pulling the thread off topic and focusing solely intent on me. While I am flattered by the attention. It's throwing the entire debate off topic. I regret to inform you Texas is stuck with me. I believe it's my FREEDOM to live where I want.

You sure love talking about yourself, then claiming others are derailing the thread when you.... keep talking about yourself.

You actually have been proven wrong often. You kept saying how dangerous "assault weapons" are, yet you were proven wrong about that and the previous ban.

You said fully-automatic rifles were better for long range over semi-automatics.

That's blatantly incorrect.

Do you mind showing me the exact quote where I said that in detail. My memory is a bit foggy. If you can do so I would be happy to respond in detail.

[Wells]

A lot of people don't value the freedom of movement apparently. I never got that line of thought myself.

Force is a drug.

Who said anything about freedom of movement?

[Grizzly Willy]

We don't like your kind 'round here, so 'git

I take issue with this line of thought, at least at a national level. The whole point of our government is for the people to decide, if indirectly, what laws are put in place. You don't get to tell people who don't like the laws to just leave. They have every right to fight to change them.

[Reeve]

So you don't like the laws here.

You didn't start here by choice.

But you want to stay.

Have you been known to stay in abusive relationships? That's not mentally healthy.

So what would you say if I lived in California, have well enough opportunity to move, but stayed even though I don't agree with all their laws?

I'm a liberal person who moved from California to Texas. There are a lot of reasons to live in a place where the majority don't hold your viewpoint. This is especially true when it's easy to find places where you can find like minded people within that area. I live in the center of Houston in large part because I enjoy the culture of Houston's center more than the outskirts.

Who said anything about freedom of movement?

Anyone who thinks people should move because they're different from the majority would have issues with it I suppose

i have crossbow does that count as a gun?\

Negative.....

So you're not arguing that people should move if they don't like the laws?

[oxymoronic]

So you are attacking gays now all for wanting equality?

nah man just pointing out its human nature to want more, whether its good or bad...

[GreatOak]

So you're not arguing that people should move if they don't like the laws?

No, why would I?

[nyc81991]

I would support making guns ilegal if I thought it would actually do anything. However, making them ilegal only puts them into the hands of criminals and anyone who isn't a "criminal" but has a gun is turned into one.

It's really no different than drugs. Sure they are ilegal but that doesn't stop people from getting them. Infact it makes it an even worse situation by giving power to underground criminal markets.

FusedMass..I think I know the problem here.

You started from a position of opposing "assault weapons" before having even a rocky knowledge of the matter.

In the future, educate yourself before taking a stance.

Gimme a nice .308 bolt action for real range.

Expect the thread is not about me personally or even my knowledge on the matter. It's about the Gun Control Debate in America right now. Whatever I believe does not matter overall in regards to what they are doing. However I still do oppose assault weapons because the supreme court never had a national defined meaning what that means.

It could mean almost virtually anything.

You oppose assault weapons because the Supreme court hasn't defined what an assault weapon is?

Yet another fantastic reason to not ban a single thing.
