I think people are driving this **** intentionally to meet nefarious goals.

You think they're unintended consequences.

Unintended consequence or not, it's happening.

It's hard for me to see some sort of nefarious plot when guns laws have been getting more lax if anything.

No. Not particularly.

Do you earnestly believe these two are analogous at all?

I ask so I can tailor my responses to the appropriate level of English.

Just to wrap this **** up:

So DBL respects Wookie, blah blah blah. Yet when he posted that racist ass billboard, it was DEFCON 1 flipout about how liberals always call everything racist.

I thought the point of the "boy who cried wolf" story was to get me to shut up, with the implication that if I wasn't so mean to Ron Paul I'd still have my credibility.

But even though Wookie had that credibility, once he posted that billboard, he got exactly the same reaction from DBL as I would've. If you don't think wolves exist, it doesn't matter how many times the boy cried out.

But lists like this, and NeBlis posting,
That's all for "the cause", how else would you rile up the troops against a non-existent foe?

If rednecks don't stay paranoid about the black helicopters taking their guns and leaving them helpless against the encroaching gang activity after the collapse of civilization, how will the NRA be able pour millions and millions of dollars into campaigns to elect Republicans?

I also loves how he trots out the 'can you read/do you speak english' lines too.

From the guy that was just switching back and forth between something being an unintended consequence and nefarious plot. Good stuff.

I think cars and guns are useful machines that can easily murder death kill folks in the face in the hands of untrained ******s who dont know what they are doing. How are the two not analogous?

I know what's in the mind of a person that breaks into my house at 2:00 am. Either they intend to do harm to me or my family, steal my property, or are so screwed up on drugs they don't know what they are doing. (the latter is unlikely because they couldn't have got in the house)

rjoe, sorry you're not good with the social cues.

I'm not going to get into a huge debate on whether you guys meant to disproportionately affect minorities with your gun laws.

If you'd like to do your own research, start with California gun control.

Keep trying to insult your way to victory champ.

Ok, well if you're ok with people leafing through a government provided booklet, then managing to fire 5 rounds downrange without killing themselves, and charging $10, go for it.

You're not.

Georgia must have some insanely lax driving tests if you think the equiv of it in a gun license is leafing through a booklet then firing 5 rounds downrange without killing themselves.

DB's doing the gun control = Jim Crow thing again?

The costs I mentioned earlier are only handguns. Iowa doesn't require anything for purchasing rifles/shotguns. Huge burden for sure.

In Washington it is a multiple guess exam (leaf through a booklet for a bit and you'll pass), and drive a few miles with the instructor. If you manage to always use your turn signals, stay in the correct lane, and parallel park you've passed (about equivalent to putting a few rounds down range and hitting somewhere on the target board).

Again, this is wrong, but it's completely unsurprising how the idea of violence used in this method gets you giddy. You're like Scott Farkus's little newsboy-hat-wearing toady.

I've never had to take the driving test

I don't know why the cops would kill his family. His dog is ****ed though.

can't wait for 24 hours of xmas story.


oh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudge

This is essentially everywhere.

Do you think the roads are safer with this mandatory test than if you could just get in car and go?

AFAICT only one state has any permit requirements on buying a shotgun (CA requires you to buy from a licensed dealer, so I'm not counting them). Much simpler than any state's drivers exam IMO.

Yes rjoe, we're winning.

We haven't won.

Victory will be when they're carrying concealed legally in NYC, Chicago and LA, and it's career suicide for the Mayor of Chicago to so much as suggest restrictive gun legislation.

Compromise: allow ammo purchases with EBT. All sides' jimmies are rustled.

I for one support this.

Ammo can be used to harvest game animals.

Game animals can be eaten.

Surprising since there is a small but influential minority who are irrationaly fearful of cars and will do anything they can to block access to cars.
