@JohnInCarolina if you seriously think that the top democratic leaders aren’t accepting money from company’s then you are nuts. Both sides do it. It’s done at the lowest level of politics. Just because a politician tells you they are good doesn’t mean you believe them. Look at Maxine Waters in CA. Her salary is 175K a year and lives in 4.3 million home. The list goes on and on. Same thing with Obama. Talks all bad about big banks and the first thing he does is give speeches for them for millions. His salary is $400,000 a year being president but somehow him and his wife net worth is 25 million.

Not really just common since. I still like you though John even if your a fruit cake. Most are off the wall crazy but you are a smart cat.

Came hear for a recipe and stumbled into this discussion. Surprised at how civil the discouse is, even though there are differing opinions. My take is that there are some things that can be done to reduce the deaths. I saw a list above from one member showing gun deaths way down the list, but most causes in the list were health related. Very misleading. Clearly gun deaths are higher per capita in the US than most any other country. Common sense laws my not guarantee to solve all the problems, as the politicians use as an excuse, but it's a matter of statistics. Provide reasonable background checks, eliminate guns for those on no fly lists and with mental issues, and monitor those that buy dozens of guns. It should not be easier to get a gun than to by Sudafed or a prescription drug. The point is that by enacting these laws you'll have a reduction just based on statistics and common sense. Perhaps if the politicians were not funded by the NRA and could communicate as well as we can on this board, we'd make some progress.

I love these kind of debates on this board. We all have a love of grilled meat, but politically are very diverse. Socially people tend to stick to people with the same views as them, so this place is a chance to discuss stuff outside our bubble.

@Toast I’d rather live in the US and carry my gun and take my chances on a mass shooting happening rather the live in the UK and worry about not having a way to defend myself against a Muslim terrorist refugee roaming the street trying to blow me up. I guess you can throw rocks at the terrorist if you had to.

Funny thing is, you are far more likely to be killed in a mass shooting or random act of gun violence than you are by a Muslim terrorist.g8golfer said:@Toast I’d rather live in the US and carry my gun and take my chances on a mass shooting happening rather the live in the UK and worry about not having a way to defend myself against a Muslim terrorist refugee roaming the street trying to blow me up.

Actually you are far more likely to be killed in a car crash.

I really think then that we should all be able to buy the sort of weapons that would allow the civilian populace to really fight back and destroy - M1 tanks, F-16/F15/F35 aircraft. Some claymores would be nice to have as would some SAW's. Oh...I'd like to have a CIWS gun so I could mount it on the back of a Toyota pickup and make me a technical. Scratch that - those are way too big to mount on a Toyota.pgprescott said:

If you believe that evolving and adding laws to keep pace with the evolution of society and the challenges of keeping it civil to be tyranny, then a gun isn't the right tool anyway, your voter registration is.
I'm not sure how many terrorist acts have been diffused by johnny-on-the-street with a gun, I think that's a fallacy. If people with concealed carry permits are not committing crimes with their guns, then maybe there's a good screening model there for legal gun ownership in general. -
There have been two mall shooters stopped by CCW'ers. One in Oregon, and I believe the other was in TX? Then the church shooter just a few months ago. Not sure how you define "terrorist", but these "mass shooters" were stopped by your so called "johnny-on-the-street" good guy.Legume said:

CCW screenings usually go under the exact same background check system a gun buyer would go through......NICS check. In fact, in some states, if you have a valid/current CCW permit, you can bypass the background check for buying a firearm since you already went through it recently.
There are a few states that require more checks or use their own system (IL is one of them.) But in most states now, if you can legally possess a gun, the issuing authority SHALL issue you a permit to carry concealed. And that's if your state even requires a permit to carry concealed anymore--more and more states have gotten away from that. Missouri passed permitless carry years ago--nothing has changed. The newspaper freaked out, and just like when CCW originally passed 14 yrs ago, you haven't heard much about it since.

No, not incorrect to my understanding @pgprescott, but that's the contextual challenge of when that language was created. The threat at the time was governmental tyranny, I don't think that's the threat of our time (some disagree I'm sure). Also, as has been pointed out, the kinds of weapons we can legally possess now are not really up to the task vs what an army would have.
Someone also pointed out the states' rights to form a militia - I'm not well read on all of this, but I suppose that's part of the argument.
I just don't think it's an argument that is terribly valid for not addressing gun control in some way. I am not an advocate of take away all guns, but I think an all or nothing argument isn't particularly an honest one. Compromises have to be made somewhere along the way. -

The terrorist comment was mostly a response to the comment someone made about UK vs US and terrorism, was thinking more busses and trains being blown up. I do see the good citizen with a gun stops a crime stories and love those. I'm not against concealed carry at all. More suggesting if it works, then how can that benefit be expanded. But...

...if the concealed carry screening isn't any different than purchasing a gun, then that won't help. I believe it's different in Tx, you need 8 hours or something of training. I'm not sure if that includes the ability for someone to deny or escalate for additional screening or if it's just pass/fail of a test. -

Most states require some sort of training to obtain their state issued permit. A lot of times it can be hunter's safety, any NRA approved course, a course taught by an NRA instructor, military training, or evidence of another state's CCW training course.
I'm still an instructor for MO and IL. Each course is required and unique to the state's permit. They both cover firearm safety and operation for revolvers & semi-automatics, marksmanship, federal laws, state laws, etc. Then there's a live fire session. It's changed over the years, but when I was active you had to hit 15 out of 20 rounds inside the silhouette of a B-27 target at 7 yards.....pretty easy. Now that MO doesn't require permits to CCW, and you can take the info portion of the basic course online, not many people do the 8hr course. MO also honors anyone else permit, so you can get a AZ, UT, FL, or any state's permit as a non-resident and it's valid in MO. IL requires you have their non-resident permit, but there's only a handful of states they'll do it for--Missouri residents can't get it, but Hawaii residents can!
Training isn't going to weed out the bad guys though......they're not going to take it in the first place; and if they do, chances are they can shoot.

According to this data, it only takes $3.2 million to buy the US law makers. You know, since the NRA controls the government and all. Surely there are some rich people in this country that could pull their money and out bid the NRA........

For those who do not think an armed citizenry couldnt prevent a government bent on tyranny you're mistaken. Do you think if the majority of the population took up arms against the government that it couldn't be effective? LOL some guys with AK's and pick up trucks wreaked havoc and that was in another country. The JV team wasn't destroyed, still survives. Now your superior weapons that the US would use in a major conflict, do you think they can turn that on the general population without destroying our own country in the process? It would be the end of the USA as you know it. I'm mean all the rebels aren't going to consolidate to some state you dislike and let the gubberment drop a bomb on them cleanly. It's urban warfare on a house by house level, they're ain't no win for tyranny there.Jacksonville FL
