But only old, obscure guns that you've probably never seen before.

Since movies, video games, art, and media are responsible for all criminal violent acts, one could argue that this guy's cover CAUSED the Colombine and Newtown tragedies.

I was into hunting way before you were.  I'm shooting shiat that you and the rest of the square community have probably never even heard of.

BojanglesPaladin: Carn: I'm more interested in requiring liability insurance as part of a licensing requirement.

Can you explain why you think liability insurance on a gun (which is readily available currently) would have any affect on reducing gun crime?


Criminal liability if a gun you own is used in a crime...make people responsible for the safe keeping of their weapons.
The military keep strict accounting and control procedures for their weapons, hold citizens to a similar standard.
/maybe limit the reporting procedures to military style weapons, high capacity capable rifles and shotguns,and handguns....keeping the hunting specific rifles and shotguns exempt.
/weapons designed for military applications (even if it isn't officially mil spec, absent the fun switch) are very efficient at what they were designed for,killing and maiming quickly and efficiently. If you want one then by all means it is your right, but it should carry responsibility.

Elegy: moothemagiccow: hinten: Insert a tasteless joke about missing the gas 40 years ago only to smoke himself to death later.

Spiegelman isn't a holocaust survivor

And the holocaust occured 70 years ago.


It's never too late to die in a freak gas accident.

If there is anything that this horrible tragedy can teach us, it's that a male model's life is a precious, precious commodity. Just because we have chiseled abs and stunning features, it doesn't mean that we too can't not die in a freak gasoline fight accident.

In the old timey days when my dad was in school kids took guns in on a semi-regular basis. If the guys were going shooting/hunting after school they'd ride their bikes to school with a rifle slung over a shoulder. Once at school they'd check the gun in with the principles office and get it back after class. And yet somehow with this going on there wasn't a single shooting at his school. The school never panicked and went on lock down expelling all the students involved. This was off in BFE Montana.

I'm not going to draw any conclusions from this riveting tale so I'll just finish with the story of the time so and so tied an onion to his belt. Which was the style at the time...........

All these discussions about guns have made me realise I am wrong. We *SHOULD* ban hi capacity clips. There is no reason ANYONE needs a clip that holds more than 10 rounds. So I am now in favor of getting rid of all hi-capacity clips, and I vow before Fark, that I will not use a clip that holds more than 10 rounds for any of my guns.

Frank N Stein: muck4doo: Hipsters are cool with stripping away your rights, as long as a Democrat is doing it.

My gf's brother is uber hipster. Last month when we went out to dinner for her family's Christmas party, me and the old lady's cousins were exchanging range and hunting stories. While left out, the hipster brother was interested in going to the range (as he's never shot a gun before). Moral of the story, I believe, is that some people just don't have experience with guns, so the issue is distant and simplistic.

/It was also funny when we were in the parking lot of the restaurant smoking and her cousin brought out his AR-15 from the back seat of his car for him to see.



the kids in Newtown and Utoya and all of those "hipsters" in Aurora got a lifetime of gun experience pretty quickly.

stuffy: I've said it before. The only way your going to get people to give up guns, is to make them feel that they don't need them.

I may be interpreting this wrong, but not allowing parents to give their 5 year old an assault weapon is wrong since it strips away your rights.
