    ...and the massive cock he has to suck. Ouch!

    Better, IMO, to repent and walk the path of Jesus rather than continuing to follow Satan as PmP always does.

So that proves government safety regulations can and do save lives. As of now, every automobile has to conform to no less than 90 different federal regulations in order to be sold.

    And comparing guns to cars is always a false comparison because in order to operate a vehicle, you need to be licensed, insured, and the car needs to be registered and inspected each year. So if you said that every gun owner had to be licensed, insured, and the gun needs to be registered and inspected each year, I think that's a reasonable first step to take.
    So why don't you give a fuck about banning all cars to save even more lives? For the children, LV.

    Mandate public transportation. Leave driving to the professionals!

    I just told you why in the response you quoted.

    I would love that, but you oppose heavy government investment in public transportation, don't you?

    So you're like..."heh heh, I'll troll you by calling for a mandate for public transportation."

    And I'm like..."jokes on you, I'm into that shit."

    So now you look like the asshole because you oppose spending money on public transportation, after hyperbolically going to an extreme position in order to sink the debate because you have no way to defend gun ownership from a practical standpoint.

    That’s an evil take


    How about the state can’t force people to gestate if they don’t choose to gestate

    I support the Feds staying in their lane, doing things the States cannot such as TransContinental Railroad, NASA and the Interstate Highway System. I support Feds wisely investing in the nation's infrastructure. In that regard, I do support Federal investment in interstate/transcontinental public transportation systems. What happens inside States and cities is up to them. I also support Texas investing in itself with better public transportation.

    Unfortunately, a lot of us live in the boonies, so it's more of a major city thing unless it happens to pass through a town like I-35 or I-30 often do.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_...ental_railroad

    That said, why do you think an accusation is more effective than simply asking a question? Is it to derail away from uncomfortable questions like your hypocrisy on what should be banned and the limitations of Federal government to only ban the stuff you don't like and never the stuff you do like?

    That means nothing.

    You're just saying things to sound good, but there's little substance.


    What happens inside States and cities is up to them.
    But you JUST SAID that Feds should do things States cannot, and wouldn't national infrastructure happen INSIDE of states and cities?

    Example: The #1 gun used for over 23,000 Suicides (47,511 total suicides) and over 10,000 murders is NOT an AR-15. It's a handgun. Yet your political party has a massive hard-on to ban AR-15s What is the fucking logic in that except to stick the camel's nose in the tent?

    Same for "high capacity magazines" too even though the average number of shots in a suicide is.....wait for it...one. A single shot pistol does the trick. How many annual suicides would be saved by banning AR-15s?

    How many murders take more than a couple of rounds? One the back of the head or two in the chest. Game over. So why the massive fear-mongering by your political party to ban things that would have negligible effect on suicide and murder? Unless it was a first step to banning all guns. Sure, then it makes sense. LOL

    Disagreed, but I'm a big believer in Free Will and know that others can read both our comments, if they give a shit, and decide for themselves who is most or least coherent.

    FWIW, I think most will vote along party lines instead of for themselves or what is best for the nation in the long run. Hopefully I'm wrong about that.
