Maybe if there weren't so many shooting ranges aka gun free zones there wouldn't be as many dead. Again look at the Seattle Mall shooter when faced with an opposing gun. No shots were fired by the legal carrier and he still offed himself saving many lives. What would have been the result in Sandy Hook if a teacher, armed and properly trained, were there to take out that scum sucker?

What facts the media choose to leave out or include however slants the results.

It all comes back to the facts......the media are drama whores anymore.....they'll say anything that sells...

Woulda coulda shouda is also a mute point....he never should have even got those weapons....

Legally he wasn't able to own or have any guns Jon. Again, the gun control laws only apply to those who follow the laws. That shooter didn't follow the law Jon. If he did there would have been no shooting.

QuoteTwo people were killed and a third was seriously wounded at Clackamas Town Center near Portland, Oregon when a rifle-toting gunman opened fire in in the busy food court. Nick Meli, a shopper in the mall, drew a personally owned firearm on the gunman, who immediately retreated to a service corridor and killed himself. Meli did not fire his weapon for fear of striking bystanders yet authorities say his actions caused the gunman to cease his attack and end his own life.

QuoteBill, have you watched the Nova episode Extreme Cave Diving? Where they dive into a blue hole in the Bahamas and cut off a stalagmite then cut it in half and analyze it for climate changes? Where they theorize that in the past, pre human, temps rose a lot in about 50 years?

I saw that one. Did you have a point?
How about some details that might be relevant to your stupid point? How much did the temperature rise?
Or maybe you are expecting someone to sit through watching an hour show to find out how it is your not making sense this time.

I thought you said you believe in global warming.
Or have the mental winds blowing through you brain disturbed you thoughts once again?

Here is an interesting little article that seems to explain a certain person's inability to rationally discuss things:
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/trump-supporters-appear-to-be-misinformed-not-uninformed/

For example:
QuoteAs Kuklinski and his colleagues established, in the U.S., the most misinformed citizens tend to be the most confident in their views and are also the strongest partisans. These folks fill the gaps in their knowledge base by using their existing belief systems. Once these inferences are stored into memory, they become ?indistinguishable from hard data,? Kuklinski and his colleagues found.

No but we can mock the soundness of his arguments and his disconnect with reality, which is pretty fun!

Jon, he did take the guns from his mother. After he murdered her of course. That made the guns illegal.

The point is Jon, all of these unconstitutional gun laws don't pertain to criminals. It won't stop them. All these unconstitutional gun laws do is keep guns out of law abiding citizens trying to defend themselves Jon. And it's really tough when the government puts the guns out there themselves ala fast and furious for one example.

You really don't pay any attention do you Bill?
I have stated many times that I do support global warming. What I don't support is the insane liberal belief in man made GW.

The point of the show Bill is they stated that we have warmed. Seas have risen. We have cooled. Seas have dropped. It is in fact a natural occurrence. And there is the probability that in the past the warming has happened in as short a span of 50 years Bill. And it happened when there were no men around Bill. That's the point Bill.

Bill the relevant part is in about the last 15 minutes Bill.

You do favor the personal attacks though don't you Bill?
