I see a comment button, but don’t see any comments. Worthless article.

Then either STFU already or strap on your SWAT gear and hit my door.

The statement/claim is a twisted argument. In the shootings he talks about how many of these happened where another person had a gun?

How about we just tell them that the science is settled. Guns prevent crime.

The science is settled.

The debate is over.

Self defense deniers should be prosecuted.

If the truth makes you sick, you must be a liberal, and if you don’t like the Second Amendment, repeal it, if you’re not too lazy.

Oh dear... liberals not only hate guns, they hate freedom of speech, too.

If they had it their way, they would amend the Constitution to eliminate our fundamental freedoms.

At heart, they’re feel-good fascists.

Amanda, thanks but no thanks.

So let’s see RS: by your logic, if you think “Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.” is a specious argument, then you also must believe that the people running the video cameras filming child porn have nothing to do with the lifetime of psychological damage done to the kids by that activity.

Moron.

This is the new meme. "We've been politely putting up with you gun nuts for a long time now but we're tired of it and now you need to admit that you all are wrong."

It's popping up in libtard publications all over the place.

The final pro-gun argument is simply BANG! Keep pushing and you’ll surely get sick if hearing that one.

264 ‘mass shootings’?

She is counting all the shooting in Chicago, Baltimore and Detroit where 2 or more gang bangers are shot. I'm surprised the number is as low as 264.

Daveinyork said: "... and if you don’t like the Second Amendment, repeal it, ..."

I can help with this.

Here is a proposed 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

1) The Second Amendment is herby repealed.
2) A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State but being too dangerous to permit, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall be infringed.

The point, of course, is that repealing the Second Amendment does not eliminate an unalienable right.

(Similarly, no decision by the Supreme Court can create one.)

The evil of human slavery in the U.S. was not eliminated by Constitutional Amendment, but by a Civil War which cost the lives of half a million people.

A civil war fought over the right to keep and bear arms could be incredibly more costly.

"I know not what course others may take ..."
