Is that English?What's 2/3? The suicide gun suicide rate? I believe it'a about a 389% increase, to answer your rhetorical question that blew up in your face.
2/3rds of the 30k gun deaths in America are from suicide.

How many of those were in liberal democracies?Governments killed over 250 million of their own people in the last century. How many did heart disease kill?
Sys, what is your solution? Give me yours or anyone else who believes like you their best solution. I'm willing to listen but I'm tired of idiots saying "ban guns" and thinking that's a realistic solution.
Some how Romania manages to have one of the lowest firearm death rates in Europe despite having a long and porous border with Serbia the country in Europe with the highest firearm death rate. Also Serbia is more "third world" than Mexico.Countries in Europe don't have what you described as a third world country next door. Take every gun in the US and nuke them in one pile. And guess what. The Mexican cartels will be right there to step up and supply the criminals all they want.
And according to the statistics you like to refer to, if you take guns away from all black people including the bad ones, gun crime will be cut in half. Not racist, just the facts syskatine.
Also I bet the UN wants an unarmed America makes it easier to control the citizens and easier to invade if need be.

Any comments on the higher rate of suicide in Japan where nobody has any guns?Any comments on the notably higher number of gun suicides in the states with lots of guns?

You actually posted this stupid rant after declaring you own probably 2 dozen guns. Doesn't surprise me in the least by other idiotic stuff you've posted.No, not racist at all, is it @Medic007 ? The "I'm not racist, but...." line has become a national punchline.
I just figured out what pisses me off so much about the gun control issue. As is, a total fvcking loser has the ability to randomly just end someone's life if it's really easy, just squeeze a trigger.... and they do, quite frequently. Some loser walks in and destroys great lives -- in this case, two productive, likable, smart people were up early, being productive, working on their career and some loser walks up and shoots them. Most of these losers don't do it another way - take away the guns and they literally don't have the ingenuity to destroy as effectively.
The people that tend to defend the loser's access to guns really make sure their fellow losers can take a gun and kill their betters. I think that's what is so unsettling to me about it -- we empower losers to very easily destroy and impose pain on dozens of people with a trigger pull. It's like there's a subconscious desire from losers to defend their fellow losers' ability to wreak carnage and grief on more successful people. Nobody on here is changing their mind, but I'm glad I'm not the one that is enabling total losers to go ruin great people's lives. You guys are defending the loser's ability to destroy. You'll cloak it in some lofty second amendment argument, but the truth is,the ability of just some fvcking loser to shoot someone and be a big deal gives you a hard-on on some level. You sure defend their ability to do it.
The second amendment argument is tailor made for losers in life. I think the last people I can remember that really used violence to square things with the government, like you think the second amendment contemplates, was David Koresh and McVeigh. I'm sure they shared your view of second amendment rights. I have to work... praise God and pass the ammunition, two more great people killed by another violent loser.
Countries in Europe don't have what you described as a third world country next door. Take every gun in the US and nuke them in one pile. And guess what. The Mexican cartels will be right there to step up and supply the criminals all they want.

Guess she should've been packing heat. She probably had it coming, rabble rousing with that chamber of commerce piece....
'Murica, where everybody gits a gun! Yeehah!
Inky, I have in other threads, and I need to get to work, but the short version is I would allow civil liability for enablers of gun violence. If you have a gun, you're on the hook for whatever happens with it. If you sell it to someone and they do a columbine, you're on the hook. It basically extends strict liability (like if your tiger gets loose and kills someone -- you want a tiger, you own whatever it does in your neighborhood) I think the effect of allowing civil liability would be more effective at keeping guns out of wackos and criminals hands.
Well, it's selective facts,Mr. I'm not a racist but I blame blacks. Have you checked for socioeconomic status, or just focused on race? I'm sure you cross-checked the data to make sure there weren't equally or even more compelling groups to isolate and blame. I suspect if you backed out middle class blacks and looked at poor, uneducated whites, you'd have some pretty compelling data, too. Did you check that, or just stop with "black?"
I must have missed your condemnation of the people making political hay over the Kathryn Steinle murder.You're a complete tool bag. Let's make political hay from a tragedy. The only thing I take solace in, when it comes to you, is knowing what a miserable existence you must live. No one can be this vapid and emotionally vacuous ... And be even one bit happy about their life.

About half way down the first page of this thread http://oklahomastate.forums.rivals.com/threads/trump.10599/ of course it wasn't obvious within minutes of her death that hay could be made, but once the opportunity revealed its self, people jumped.I'm sorry ... Point me to the post that happened within minutes of Steinle's murder.
I question whether either of you have a soul. Say this was your son or daughter this morning. How would you feel about sys' post then?
When you view your political viewpoint, and winning an argument, more important than people, you should just perform a postpartum abortion and honestly ... I don't care if you use a gun, a rope or draino.
That stat was a response that ducked my question. Further, that stat came from a study by authors who have been widely criticized for selectively using stats to push an anti-gun agenda. Furthermore, I don't think that stat, if true, helps your argument. In fact, it hurts it. People who commit suicide are not innocent victims of gun violence.I knew you'd duck the statistic.
Sure -- they should be happy they don't have guns or it'd be 382% higher, if the data extrapolates to that culture.
So if I have my guns locked up in a gun safe (which I do) and some one breaks in and steals them then commits a crime then will they punish me? How far do I have to go to secure my guns? I am a very responsible gun owner and I think people need to take guns serious as they are a very powerful weapon that can end an life. What the loser did today is sick and wrong but your over reaction is nuts. So the fact I stand up for the Bill of Rights makes me a loser? I never once defended this nut job. You sir are the only loser here now get back to that elder law. I am sure there is some old lady out there you could hood wink.

You're wrong about everything you wrote, including the bullshit sanctimony. You don't get to enable losers and crazies to decide who gets to live and die, and then whine whenever the predictable consequences of your enabling is pointed out. And if I was that girl's father, I would blame her shooter and the mouth breathing losers that enable people like him -- you, in case there's any ambiguity here -- to do it.
@syskatine why am I a loser for defending the Bill of Rights which you seem to take advantage of being a gun owner? Either answer the question or shut up forever.
I, for one, rejoice anytime some one commits suicide, since they are not innocent.That stat was a response that ducked my question. Further, that stat came from a study by authors who have been widely criticized for selectively using stats to push an anti-gun agenda.

If that is all you have taken from my posting I see why you are such a dipshit. Keep owning them guns then telling us all how we are losers for defending our right to own them.Jonny, buddy no offense but I have better things to do than explain obvious answers to someone that thinks we need guns to defend against the UN invading.
The reason its ok for me to own guns is because it's legal. The reason you're a loser is a combination of shitty genetics, ignorance, and lack of virtue.
This guy needs to GTFO @PDT816

I see it. It would be best if everyone kept it to the issue instead of making it about other posters from here on
Romania is no United States in a lot ways. You're being intellectually dishonest.Some how Romania manages to have one of the lowest firearm death rates in Europe despite having a long and porous border with Serbia the country in Europe with the highest firearm death rate. Also Serbia is more "third world" than Mexico.
Where do you think the cartels get their guns?
Nice deflection and once again completely ignoring the facts. Poor uneducated whites aren't increasing the statistic of black gun violence. At first I thought you seriously can't be this dense, but that position is waning.Well, it's selective facts,Mr. I'm not a racist but I blame blacks. Have you checked for socioeconomic status, or just focused on race? I'm sure you cross-checked the data to make sure there weren't equally or even more compelling groups to isolate and blame.
