    How many of those UK gun murders were committed with guns?

    Outlawing firearms will prevent people from having firearms.

    Why is it the rate of firearms deaths is reversely correlated with gun control laws?

    Of course you are failing to mention the increase in the U.K. is still infinitesimal compared to the U.S.

    Your argument has one serious flaw in it - it's completely not true.

    Now the liberals are trying to use these NYPD deaths to promote their gun control policies... utterly disgusting. If the liberals couldn't get this through after "leveraging" the Sandy Hook tragedy, then it's definitely not happening now. Never let a crisis go to waste, right Rahm?

    The foundation of this problem still traces back to a deterioration of family values and personal responsibility in the black culture and the lack of prioritizing education in this community. It's not PC to say it, but these deficiencies feed so many problems in America -- crime, drugs, children without two parents, abortions, violence, incarceration, hostility towards police, etc. This is where Obama can make a big difference both now and after his term ends. Addressing these issues help boost him, so others should look to his example.

    In either scenario the guy is just as dead, but the bat is probably more satisfying than the uzi.

    OK so let me get this straight....a crazy guy kills his girl then decides before he's caught he might as well off a few officers....then his actions become representative off an entire movement of peaceful protest against the status quo....Who didn't see this lazy brain dead narrative taking hold.....LMAO:rolleyes:

    Obviously this is why people should not complain when cops make a mistake or demand change. Because it escalates things. Better to just accept that cops are going to kill a few darkies here and there for being darkies, and that's a small price to pay for security.

    So the real tragedy here is that you're inconvenienced by having to hear that the common factor in gun violence is guns.

    Sorry FV we regret the imposition. :(

    The common factor in all knife violence is knives, the common factor in all bat violence is bats, the common factor in all taser violence is tasers, the common factor in all of these is violent people.....but lets focus on the tools because narratives.

    Let's focus on tools, because one tool is substantially more deadly.

    Why do you think nuclear weapons are strictly prohibited worldwide?

    So, if Ismaaiyl Brinsley hadn't offed himself, and was arrested and put in front of a grand jury which decides not to indict for lack of evidence, would you think justice has been served?

    So in your mind there should be a strict prohibition of firearms....despite that whole constitution issue? Even if we ignore the constitution and assume that you could get enough politicians to go along with the prohibition to make it pass, do you really think the people would go along with it? I mean, it's pretty foolish to think that a prohibition like that would work given the track record with unpopular prohibitions.

    There should be strict prohibition not despite, but because of the whole constitution issue.

    So are you basically saying they should violate the constitution because "F the constitution"?

    A prohibition on keeping and bearing firearms is pretty obviously against the constitution.....is it that you just don't like the constitution?

    yes because there is a long history of cop killers going unpunished :rolleyes:

    I don't defend the looters but context is important.

    Well I agree that context is important, you are comparing a cold blooded triple murder to an accidental death and a case of self defense.
