  • It was just an example of highly exaggerated “news” pushing anti-gun opinions. It’s also extremely obvious so I thought it was a good thing to point out. It’s all part of the won’t someone please think of the children angle to try and convince people to give up their rights. Don’t get me wrong Fox News is absolute shit but that doesn’t excuse the other side telling lies.

    What? I think you might be confused. The only ones hiding their true intent are those trying to ban all guns while claiming “reasonable restrictions”. The Second Amendment is historically significant to the founding of the US and is based in the ability of a nation to defend itself with or without a standing army. Human nature has remained the same. Recent failures in “catch and release” or soft on crime prosecutors has shown that despite trying to be progressive and change the way we treat criminals the criminals haven’t changed. They’re still the same as they’ve always been.

    Human nature being what it is, until we have perfect mass surveillance and zero freedoms we will continue to have a need to protect ourselves from bad actors.

    I’m also of the belief that once a person has served their sentence and been released there shouldn’t be any additional future punishments stemming from prior convictions. They should have all their rights restored. It certainly could be kept as a record to affect their future criminal punishments were they to reoffend, but if the punishment they received wasn’t enough and they have to be punished more then it should have been a part of the initial conviction sentencing.

    Dude. He was found not guilty. If there was evidence of him being there for no reason other than to kill somebody then I’m sure he would have been convicted. I remember fairly well that he retreated but got attacked by a guy trying to hit him in the head with a skateboard (weapon) and shooting the arm of a felon brandishing a handgun at him.

    And yet it wasn’t illegal. If it was he would have been found guilty. I said nothing of the intelligence of his plans, just what I remember of the facts. I remember he wasn’t doing anything wrong, but was targeted by some shitstains who chased after an armed guy. That was ultimately the stupidest decision on the day. One of the shitstains was a felon with a gun, and the dead one was a sex offender. If I got some of the details wrong it’s because I don’t care enough to look it up because it’s a decided case.

    Sounds a lot like FAFO to me.
