RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - SIXFOOTERsez - 02-12-2016 Wow, Glad she and cat are ok. I support your intentions and hope they are successful. I have never believed "warning Shots" were wise or should even be legal and this is precisely the reason why. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - BigMark - 02-12-2016 BlueTiki, I really don't believe the bullet went under her keyboard, could you post a picture of her in a bikini to prove it? RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - Maggot - 02-12-2016 When I got married I moved into a place that had about 30 units in it. The walls were paper thin and I could hear everything going on, people fighting, fucking, laughing all kinds of crap. I called it "the anthill" I hope justice is swift and just. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - HairOfTheDog - 02-12-2016 Oakland, California The National Rifle Association and its state chapter, the California Rifle and Pistol Association, are threatening to sue the Oakland City Council to prevent implementation of new firearms safety laws. Attorneys for the NRA and the CRPA notified the Oakland City Council in two separate letters dated January 4 that they intend to file lawsuits to stop implementation of the new laws. One would require firearms in people's homes to be secured in a locked container, or disabled with a trigger lock, while the other involves a citywide ban on gun magazines that can hold ten or more cartridges. The Oakland City Council approved both laws in early January. Councilmembers also approved a new law that prohibits storage of unsecured firearms in vehicles parked on public streets. "Adoption of such an extreme and unconstitutional law will result in litigation against the City to enjoin enforcement and have it declared invalid," attorneys for the gun lobbying organizations wrote in one of the letters sent to the council. The pro-gun groups argue that both laws infringe on gun owner's Second Amendment rights, and that both are preempted by state laws. Councilmember Anne Campbell Washington, co-author of the laws banning high capacity gun magazines and the home gun storage rules, said she is confident that the new laws are constitutional and enforceable. "We cannot be held hostage by gun radicals," Campbell Washington wrote in an email to the Express. "Not only do recent court decisions clearly support the power of municipalities to institute commonsense regulations regarding firearms, but responsible gun owners agree with these commonsense regulations." Mark Selmi, the chief public affairs officer with Michel & Associates, the law firm representing the NRA and CRPA, said that the pro-gun groups didn't take a position on the new city law that requires firearms stored in unattended vehicles parked on public streets to be secured. Regarding the other two new gun control measures, he said he could not comment on potential litigation. http://www.eastbayexpress.com/SevenDays/archives/2016/01/07/nra-says-it-will-sue-oakland-over-new-gun-laws ============================================= I don't believe the NRA and CRPA have a legal leg to stand on and won't be surprised if the threat to sue never converts into action. None of the new Oakland laws infringe on individuals' right to bear arms, in my opinion, and city laws often expand/exceed state laws (this I live first-hand).

Yeah, because those rules are just so fuckin' difficult to abide by. Whatta bunch of drama flakes.

The Skagit Valley Herald reports the man and his girlfriend were photographing themselves with the weapon on Sunday at a residence when he shot himself. Skagit County Sheriff's Office Patrol Chief Chad Clark says the woman reported that she and the man had taken photos with the gun several times that day and that the man had loaded and unloaded bullets multiple times. Clark says a bullet apparently remained in the gun the final time he fired.

RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - BlueTiki - 03-03-2016 Legislation and regulation won't cure stupidity . . . a bullet is faster. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - F.U. - 03-03-2016 I'm kinda glad this shit happens. It gets the stupid fuckers out of the gene pool. I say hand everyone a loaded gun and a camera and let the cleansing begin.

Yeah, I'm not glad when anyone dies like that -- but I'm not concerned about trying to prevent aduts from killing themselves (using guns or any other means) by choice or idiocy either. For some reason, I really want to see the selfies the geniuses took. Bet they're to die for. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - Duchess - 03-03-2016 I don't get the appeal of posing with a gun unless they want to be viewed as a hick or a thug. Faux tough guys. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - SIXFOOTERsez - 03-03-2016 A little bleach for the gene pool is a good thing.

I think it's a lot different when someone poses with a weapon in order to present themselves as a badass as so many of those thugs do. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - F.U. - 03-04-2016 So if you take a pic with your car does it make you a wannabe nascar driver? Or with your horse you are a cowboy? Its just showing off something you own. It makes no difference just because its a gun. Edited to add a pic of this bad ass woman. I sure hope I don't run into her in a dark alley. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - Duchess - 03-04-2016 When i get back to my desk ill show you exactly what i mean. Had i known it was going to be so difficult to grasp i would have included a photo at the time i posted that comment. RE: GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY? - sally - 03-04-2016 I think most people who pose with weapons are trying to look tough. But I'm sure there are also people who pose with their weapons just because they like them and want to show them off, like a new car or something.

It makes no difference? Is this how you see yourself? I want to be clear on this so I don't offend you further. You want to be viewed like these guys? |
