Title: NBC-calls for distruction of gun factories Post by: HK91-762mm on 07 13, 11, 07:43:28:PM YEP real civility by the Laim sttream media !!!!
NBC Chicago’s Edward Mcclelland: Burn Down Gun Factories NBC Chicago blogger Edward Edward Mcclelland (http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/There-Are-No-Legal-Guns-125393318.html)‘s not happy about the fact that ex-con Rodrick Dantzler got ahold of a .40 caliber handgun and killed seven people in Grand Rapids, Michigan. ”The only way to prevent this sort of thing from happening again is to track the weapon back to the gun manufacturer, then burn its factory to the ground. As long as it is legal to make and sell a product whose only function is to kill people, that product will be used to kill people illegally. A thug who’s planning a murder is not likely to worry about the penalty for stealing a gun.” At least Eddy gets that part of the equation right. And then he’s off again . . . As a society, we’ve decided that the free manufacture of firearms is worth the sacrifice of seven people in Grand Rapids, or five people in DeKalb, or 32 people in Blacksburg, Va. Did you hear any politician suggest banning firearms after those bloodbaths? I didn’t. Nor will Eddy hear any great chorus for gun control. Most people are well aware that a firearm offers them protection from . . . other people with firearms. But Big Mac has it only slightly wrong. Here, let me fix it . . . As a society, we’ve decided that the freedoms guaranteed by the individual right to keep and bear firearms are worth the dangers of living in society where criminals also have access to firearms.

Your Toyota and Smirnoff argument is a false analogy. Title: Re: NBC-calls for distruction of gun factories Post by: 1965hawks on 07 14, 11, 10:53:08:PM just-another-rightwingnut: I wonder how many people odumbacare will kill [sic]
Not a single death will be attributed to "odumbacare," because there's no such thing as "odumbacare." On the other hand, we don't have to wonder about how many people firearms kill. The numbers speak for themselves. http://www.bradycampaign.org/xshare/Facts/Gun_Death_and_Injury_Stat_Sheet_2007__2009_FINAL.pdf (http://www.bradycampaign.org/xshare/Facts/Gun_Death_and_Injury_Stat_Sheet_2007__2009_FINAL.pdf) Title: Re: NBC-calls for distruction of gun factories Post by: chuck_curtis on 07 15, 11, 02:39:48:PM It's not as if gun manufacturers are immune from prosecution. Their products work exactly as advertised.
When drug companies manufacture drugs that kill people --- well, somehow that's another thing. Don't burn Phizer down! 100,000 people die from prescription drugs every year. That's not an epidemic, either, but gheezus, you anti-gun wacho-nuts need to get your priorities and definitions straight. |
