Yep, anytime anything remotely looks like it's anti-gun, the prices go through the roof as folks panic buy thinking they'll never get another chance.  Ahh don't you love the free market.  The joy of suckers born every minute :)

ahh... you all have the wrong perspective... its a buying opportunity(and I'm not talking about guns...)... spend away suckers!

so tell me, how many of you bought your guns on plastic?

   They should ban knives because as they are Assault Weapons and can be used too fast.

Had the same thought when I saw that article today. Didn't some politician in England propose a ban on knifes a couple years back? Seems that because guns were harder to obtain so death and assaults using knifes had skyrocketed.

politicians propose all sorts of nonsense all the time just to get airtime ...

we have fairly sensible laws for knives - if your going hunting or camping you're good. if you're walking through the local shopping centre with a machete, you're gonna get busted. however plenty of kinds of bladed weapons are illegal because they are only useful for one thing - trying to kill people.

same with guns - go hunting with a shotgun or rifle (assuming you've got a licence for it, which is pretty easy to get if your not a crim or insane) and you're good. if you're walking through the local shopping centre with an unsecured gun, you're gonna get busted. or more likely shot - we dont mess around here. however some kinds of guns are illegal because they are only used for one thing - trying to kill people.


and before 20 people pile in I'm not saying this approach is right for everywhere, just that its what we have decided is good for the UK.

A while back some woman was quoted in Britain about wanting to ban baseball bats because some whacko (pun intended) went off and assaulted a bunch of folks with one. She said there was no need of a dangerous weapon like that in Britain.

If making a law really did work and actually solved anything, this would have been a perfect world decades ago with all the laws on the books. For some strange reason folks just can't get their head around the concept that criminals really don't follow laws.

see there it goes again.  I never said he was a hero.  all my argument was that Melvin's statement that everybody is against the fast and the furious is not a truthful statement.

AND, a lot of people had no problem with what Hitler was doing.  And Stalin.

Just sayin

The fact remains that the agent WAS killed with a Fast and Furious gun, which may not have happened if the gun wasn't sold to the drug runners. Any other conclusion entails ignoring the facts....


no,  see guns don't kill people,  people kill people.   where the gun came from is irrelevant, the criminal would have gotten it from a different place.

I misspoke. What I should have said is that nobody should consider Holder or his flunkies as heroes for their implamentation and later bungling of Fast and Furious.
