She misses a very important, and stupidly simple point - sure it's "bad people" who commit these acts, but guns amplify the damage exponentially. We've had numerous van/knife attacks across the world since isis came onto the scene, but the death counts are single digits (not including the attacker). The worst might have been the Toronto van attack, and that barely hit 10 people. Compare this to mass shootings in the US - this list doesn't even count it if there are less than 10 fatalities:
Just like the old saying goes. Guns don't kill people. People kill people......with guns.
And faster and more effectively. Imagine the energy needed to chop 20 or 30 people to death. I get tired even thinking about it.
Not much, once that rage starts swelling up inside of you, the adrenalin kicks in, and before you realize it, you're covered in blood. Of course, it is harder to do with a dull implement.
And you never will, that's why they're assholes too. Neither side is worth the snot it takes to fill a Kleenex. You guys can rag on the right all you want, but the left is just as fucking bad, and no one wants to point that out. You see, the republicans aren't really the problem, the government is the problem, and the lack of rules WE AS THE PEOPLE, have failed to impost upon them. You're a smart enough guy to know, both sides get fat contributions, and make secret promises, and atrocious deals at our expense. and since I'm to lazy, and not quite skilled enough to search the world wide web for all of the democratic scandals, and fuckery that the democrats pull, so I can start a "lets hate on the republicans" thread, I take my shots where I can. I hope you enjoyed your experience doing business with EDB.llc. Please come again.
No, the Democrats have a lot of problems and have a lot of corruption. I will readily admit that, but your statement is just a gigantic false equivalence by playing the bothsidesism card. They reason people here don't rag on them to the same degree is because they aren't as bad. It's that simple. That's not an endorsement of them as much as it's and indictment of how far gone the Republicans are. The Democrats, on the whole, are a standard crappy political party and have been for decades. A lot of them don't give a damn about their constituents, but the Republicans have moved to outright bat shit insanity not seen since well before anybody alive today was born.
I have been ragging on the left less over the past few years. You are correct about politicians taking the cash - at our expense.
I will definitely come back.https://www.rawstory.com/republican-josh-mandel-against-constitution/
