    Hey gun folk here, what’s the solution brehs? If you seriously don’t think there’s an issue then say that. There’s no issue gun laws are fine. If you think we need to arm country music crowds with Anti-Sniper Ballistic Missiles then say that.

    Don’t answer with a non answer like “now is not the time” or “bad guys will still get guns”. So....gun dudes...what’s the deal?

    The big event occurs every day in America where we lead the first world in deaths by homicide, bigly. EVERY DAY is an aha moment. Many of you just don't give a ****. Just tell it like it is.

    Seriously he wants to make an excuse that he didn't know this at his first glance.

    It was extremely obvious at first glance that these numbers were ratios. I mean why would anyone make a graph of totals for gun deaths when each country has drastically different populations?

    Simple common sense but I'm the "bum".

    I've been studying Trig for about 5 hours today. I think you're a bum for being math into this. Math needs to die.

    Again you are making the same mistake you 2nd amendment haters always do. 'We have lots of gun homicides therefore pass gun laws I want' is incredibly uncompelling. Try explaining why you think your law would reduce homicides in the US and then try sympathizing with those affected by your proposed law. Instead you try the same shtick and insulting those you need to convince.

    There is something really terrible about this situation... And everything about this story is just not right. There are unverified rumors that have popped up on the net about if this may have been an FBI mishap gone bad...Not gonna elaborate, but this is very interesting perspective. The truth is we really have zero clue who Stephen Paddock is and how he 'supposedly' had a homicidal outburst. There are also leaked pics of the crime scene showing the dead body of Paddock and pictures of the presumed weapons used. This was too elaborate, too organized, and very detailed for me as a casual observer. Camera's, numerous rifles, etc...Paddock wasnt a "wealthy" nobody...Today afternoon's presser by the LVPD, the sheriff indicated that the gf is now a person of interest...Time will tell us a clear and concise motive.

    The leaks of a crime scene indicate that there is some sketchy stuff happening behind the scenes with the LVPD and FBI.

    Just look at this crap. What could justify allowing the sale of these weapons? See the big pile of magazines? Just look at the size of the magazines on those assault rifles. How could those possibly be for sale?

    Why don't you justify instead that the status quo WILL PREVENT this mass shootings? Will it, ever?

    Pass new restrictions = may prevent/may not = Theoretical.
    Status Quo = will Not prevent = Fact.

    I say roll the dice with new restrictions.

    2nd amendment haters, lol. I carry a gun every day. Do you?

    I don't have to convince you of anything. It's self-evident. We lead the civilized world in gun murders. Period. That's not a schtick. It's math.

    The gun nut solution is to do nothing which is what we're doing because of the obstructionism. Any rational person knows the status quo is ridiculous but you're not rational. You're so irrational that you can't even contemplate how irrational you are.

    Congress tried to outlaw this slide fire mechanism in 2013. Guess who was against it?

    I don't support status quo.

    But in a free society here is how it works. If you want to take away a liberty of the people you have to justify such an act. A person doesn't need to justify their liberties to you or anyone else.
