Oh so our mass-shootings committed by lunatics and racists aren't bad enough? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Las_Vegas_shooting On October 1, 2017, a mass shooting occurred when 64-year-old Stephen Paddock opened fire on the crowd attending the Route 91 Harvest music festival on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada from his 32nd-floor suites in the Mandalay Bay hotel. He fired more than 1,000 bullets, killing 60 people[a] and wounding at least 413.
You damn sure got that right. If an unruly domestic mob of 4 or 500 individuals without weapons was able to almost " destroy democracy as we know it ".... Even well-armed and fairly well trained terrorists could have taken the place
Of course they're "bad enough".... This is why we shouldn't be importing people from around the world willy-nilly especially from regions of the world that detest the American way of life.
When something happens outside the US, the pro American gunners always claimed, "Now if they had a 2nd Amendment, it wouldn't happen". So America gets invaded at it's Southern border from illegals, you get terrorists destroying buildings, you have horrendous gun stats, you have mass shootings, the list goes on. So as soon it's said, "So why didn't your 2nd Amendment not stop.............in America?", your answer is that a 2nd Amendment will work for everyone else, but not America? If you think the 2nd Amendment is so fantastic, why's it not working in America?
It works excellent every time a criminal is stopped by a firearm. Nothing causes a person to cease their hostile actions quite like staring down the barrel of a gun. Why do you think the police are such a big fan of the effectiveness of firearms? When you have a gun, you don't have to be bigger faster stronger and meaner than your opponent.
I don't care about statistics... I care about the personal safety of me and the ones that I love. When I go to work all night long at 10:00 p.m. and don't get back until the sun comes up it gives me great piece of mind to know that my girlfriend is home with the dog and a loaded gun.
So, once in a blue moon. And you view others as an opponent. A phrase that shouldn't allow someone to own a gun with that mentality. And you're confused by the high gun stats in America?
Ground attack on multiple cities? Very unlikely, which is why 911 terrorists resorted to other tactics.
No it's not once in a blue moon because it happens frequently...... And yes if someone is trying to attack me or make a victim out of me, I consider them my opponent. Perhaps the word attacker or criminal would be better?
It would appear that you are trying to refute an argument no one has ever made. The second amendment is not a cure all. The baby-killing rapist terrorists did encounter armed resistance on one kubutz and they fended off the attackers without taking a single loss. Gun laws provide killers with easy victims.
I suspect it'll be more of the (eg) cowardly car bomb attack that the style of attack perpetrated on Israel.
If we do have Hamas-style attacks against the population of the United States it will probably be on a "skirmish" basis, but not an all-out assault. Disturbing is the very real possibility that the attacks will be aided and approved of by way too much of our population -- including all the trash we've imported as 'migrants' from all over the planet, and, a surprising number of younger Americans who have absolutely NO knowledge of history (or much else) at all....
Because American pro gunners tend to claim other countries wouldn't have xxxxxx problem if they had a 2ndA. Just change xxxxxxx to the relevant topic.
Yes, and because we are a fearful nation, that's all it would take to terrorize and paralyze the US. Heck, this thread shows some people are already terrified even though nothing has happened. The US is openly "all-in" with supporting Israel, and that might increase anti-US sentiment among Islamist terror elements around the world, so something might happen in near future. I know populist factions are told to not support allies, and not aid anyone, but I believe we are doing the right thing supporting Israel even given the increased risk.
Oh it is. The left and establishment would have been emboldened and taken over decades ago is we didn't have it. Almost all mass shooting takes place in gun free zones.Usually blue states where gun violations are rarely prosecuted.
No one there, except perhaps under the age of 10, is innocent. They consented to be run by Hamas and by the time they are ten they are thoroughly and intentionally indoctrinated to hate Jews.
I suspect that unless there are suddenly large populations of radicalized muslims in the US somehow colocated near jewish concentrations, no, we won't have these kinds of attacks. Can you imagine pockets of radicalized muslims trying to hide rocket building and deployment systems? And absent someone like George Soros, who's going to fund their weapons building?
Europe has guns, unless on private property, it's a gun free zone. But it doesn't have your level of horrendous gun stats. Could you try again please.
