    Well we did have one case of an insane pilot....but he didn't use a gun so all of those dead passengers were safe.

    I can imagine making America great again. An America free from gun violence because every law-abiding American citizen - would be carrying a firearm anywhere they go.

    Taco bell. McDonalds. Work. School. the Gym. Trains. Planes. Automobiles. Hospitals. Post offices. Concerts. Movies. Rallies. Protests. White House tours. Speeches. And of course - bathrooms!

    Imagine if guns were everywhere. Criminals would never be able to avoid the hammer of justice. Imagine not one Zimmerman, but 10 million. Watching over us. Chasing suspects into their rat holes. Dominating insane shooters. Intimidating the weird who are all probably pedophiles. Imagine such a citizen show of strength. Mexicans would run back home. Muslim Terrorists would think twice and instead fight their wars in Syria. No, not here, they would be scared of the guns - in the hands of Americans!

    Imagine if the runners of the Boston Marathon had guns? Imagine if Rockets games were filled with fans with guns!

    Our streets would be safe. People would be able to relax and take a deep breath. We could be comfortable speaking our minds again. We can be free without the intimidation of criminal agents. If there was a dispute, why, all people had to do was show their guns to remind everyone not to take it too far.

    Imagine what a wonderful place it would be.

    "Gun free countries" make you safe though. See most of Europe.

    And I completely support anyone who would want to live in a "gun free country" to move to one. It would likely make for a better political climate here.

    So you'd rather live in a police state where every person is armed, wild west style, over a European-like, gun free society. If that isn't the best example of how much of a lunatic you are, I'm not sure what is.

    Actually when everyone but the police is armed, that's how you get to a police state....it's okay though, feel free to move to your European paradise, I'll be happy knowing you won't get a vote anymore.

    lol can't argue with a crazy person. If everyone in the country was like Bobby we'd all be dead right now, I am fully confident of that.

    Does Trump allow guns at his various buildings?

    And by somewhat safe, you mean zero gun violence of course.

    I'm pretty sure you just said this.

    You mean to tell me it's the presence of a cop for every 300+ people at a game, with probably half the cops OUTSIDE the stadium, that stop gun shootings in MMP and NOT THE FACT THERE ARE NO GUNS IN MMP? All those cops are preventing the gun murders THAT LITERALLY CANNOT ****ING HAPPEN in the stadium. I mean, seriously just stop. Per you usual, you just keep furiously typing without knowing what the hell you're talking about. Talk about sad and stupid and a waste of everyone's time.

    Is this a serious question? Are you REALLY that feeble minded? Of course it is the security that matters. LOL c'mon man.

    I think at this point, even the dumbest mothe****er alive could understand you cannot commit a gun murder without a gun and then there's you.

    Let's review.

    By safe he means zero gun violence.

    Now it's not the cops that matter, it's the vague term "security". Like metal detectors ensuring a gun free zone is "security". First it was not possible, then it was possible with one cop per several hundred people, and now it's possible with "security". Keep walking it back.

    You meant to tell ME that someone with the desire to do so couldn't just take his AR 15 to MMP and open up on the crowd despite it being a gun free zone?

    Well if they're going to sneak their AR 15 in their anus after they get past all those metal detectors. I guess so, yep! Then of course it wouldn't be a gun free zone though. I think you guys are getting hung up on the theorectical rather than the actual because you're politically motivated rather than factually motivated.

    So what you're saying is that outside of MMP (also a gun free zone) a dude can't use his car in a drive by?

    SMH, yeah you really are that simple. Schools are also "Drug Free Zones".....and I'm pretty sure students still take drugs to school every day. A "Gun Free Zone" is no different, if you want to bring in a gun, you'll still do so unless there is enough security to prevent it. Even then, that didn't stop the attack in Paris.

    Honestly I can't imagine you being older than your early 20's with such naive beliefs.

    Well it's not a very good place to attack, there is a ton of armed security in the area. The amount of damage that could be done is limited so anyone looking to hurt people would likely seek a softer target to maximize damage.

    Outside of MMP isn't a gun free zone. A great hypothetical though, maybe we should limit the gun powder to civilian ammunition so that a bullet could not travel more than 15 feet. That's probably a winner there!

    No, they're not actually drug free zones or gun free zones. They're legislated as such and there's a difference. You really are that simple. You're welcome.

    Yes, preventing someone from bringing in a gun with "security" or a "metal detector" tends to stop people from bringing in a gun. Nice job there junior.

    Considering France has one fifth the gun violence of the United States I don't think that's your best example there junior.

    I'd be interested in seeing you try to wander among the fans right outside MMP with an AR-15. Something tells me the cops would give you a lot of attention.

    BTW, from the Astros own website...The real reason shootings don't take place inside MMP.
