"Let's ignore reality" ping.

[EagleUSA]

Another moron speaks out -- and again, people are not responsible for killing people. Maybe this leftist fool should be selling a bumper sticker that says...

** PUT GUNS IN JAIL, NOT PEOPLE **

[mywholebodyisaweapon]

Yes, and I blame cars, alcohol, knives, pencils, and long, boring lectures for the deaths that resulted from their use, rather than blaming the persons who controlled these effective means of killing.

[Lockbar]

I wonder if Jeremy Burnside is willing to personally come to my front door to take away my guns?

[Lazamataz]

Regardless of who pulled the trigger, I blame the gun.

Freakin' moron.

Without a gun, it would be a can of gasoline and a lighter.

Murderous intent kills; inanimate objects do not.

[Disambiguator]

Regardless of who pulled the trigger, I blame the gun.

Jeremy, professional help is available. You may want to consider committing yourself.

We all realize that reality is hard to take sometimes, but in the long run we are all better off when we come to terms with it.

[CholeraJoe]

Yup. It's the guns. Just last week, I caught my pistol trying to sneak out, headed for the playground about a block away.

[Redleg Duke]

Idiot alert.

[misterrob]

Hmmm, not all guns kill people, just the ones used by people. Why not consider who pulled the trigger. If it was from a group that commits a lot of violence then why not just get rid of them?

Same logic

sorta

[Boston Blackie]

Guns were invented with the specific purpose to kill. People were not.

...and the proof is that NO murders took place before the gun was invented. /dripping sarc.

[goldstategop]

A disturbed gun banner nut. The truth is its people who kill people. But hey, folks like him never talk about criminal control. That's what's really needed to bring the senseless violence under control in our counry.

[mainepatsfan]

Yeah no one was ever murdered prior to the invention of firearms. /s

[DungeonMaster]

I'm just speechless.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

Because of nonsense like this I belong to the NRA and invite everyone to join.

[Mad Dawg]

The message: The Mandarins of the Law will tell the common people what the law means, even when the law clearly means somethng other than what they say. We lawyers have a duty to pervert the Constitution is we don't like what it means.

[eyeamok]

You sir are an idiot, The People Decide what the Constitution means not the courts, The Constitution is written in language for the common Man, not Scumbag lawyers in dresses,

The Jury shall decide on the Law as well as the facts in controversy.

John Jay
1st Supreme Court Justice

if the government controls the law as well as the facts permitted into evidence, then guilt or innocence is irrelevant

[rhombus]

Regardless of who pulled the trigger, I blame the gun.

Regardless of what nation launched the missile, I blame the nukes. Ban the bomb. Just send Iran, N. Korea notices that nuclear weapons have been banned. Uh, huh, that'll work. If nukes are outlawed, only outlaws will have nukes.

[MarkL]

Yes, guns are sometimes used by disturbed or evil people to murder innocent people. However, guns are used far more often by innocent people to defend their lives and the lives of others against disturbed or evil people. Are these peoples' lives any less precious or important than those who've been murdered, simply because they're still alive?

[MBB1984]

Yes, people are all good, they never do anything wrong. Human beings should never be responsible for their actions. The gun made them do the shooting! Stop the guns from forcing people to use them as a weapon.

[ctdonath2]

In United States v. Miller, the U.S. Supreme Court interpreted this provision to mean that citizens do not have an individual right to bear arms unless they possess “some reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia.”

SCOTUS was referring the the arms, not the person.

Despite Miller being a maker of illegal moonshine, and being caught with the sawed-off in the process thereof, SCOTUS never raised the question of whether Miller was connected to a militia - being a citizen, that was a given.
