Well, you certainly don't need guns to kill people. Just ask a Beothuk. :wink:


Dug deep for that one! They were killed off by the Europeans...but mostly by disease brought by settlers.

That was almost 200 years ago as well, I'm thinking times have changed somewhat. :D

The generally accepted explanation seems to be that they were forced to migrate inland and died of starvation, because some of their main sources of food were no longer available.

I just shake my head when people blame the trigger instead of the finger. Would anyone have felt any better if the guy lobbed a few sticks of dynamite or tannerite at people? Or if he mowed them down with a car (aka 2-ton bullet)? There's some logic missing from this equation. By blaming the gun, you're giving a guy like that an excuse. No, I'm sorry. It was ALL HIS FAULT.

i know this is not a place to discuss these things but i just want to put this fact out there to start everybody thinking....all the folks who have been elected are invested in a retirement package that also includes several stocks in gun companies. so when they start all this 2nd amendment B.S. and how they are going to ban this and ban that it's because they KNOW that we will go buy what ever it is they SAY they will take away. MONEY MONEY MONEY. as if those aholes need more. we are stuck in the middle. the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS. oh yeah, if they take the guns who is going to volunteer to do the taking? soldiers, cops, maybe a foreign army? i don't think so.

That's pretty prophetic, bluesdudet1d. I think you hit the nail on the head here if you consider the example how government officials handle it.

Gun control doesn't necessarily mean "they" will come around collecting your guns. They might grandfather you in with what you already have, but stop future sales.
