Gun manufacturers are still liable for defective products. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2016 #6

Rather than liability resting with the manufacturers, guillaumeb Jan 2016 #31

We've been through this many times before. Insurance doesn't work the way you believe, branford Jan 2016 #35

Let us get to the point: guillaumeb Jan 2016 #37

Did you even read my whole post? branford Jan 2016 #39

You still don't understand how insurance works. ManiacJoe Jan 2016 #40

There were two posts with such very rare accidents today. guillaumeb Jan 2016 #41

You are getting there. ManiacJoe Jan 2016 #42

Or you want that percentage to be much higher to justify your feelings guillaumeb Jan 2016 #38

Human nature (and my nature especially) could go that way. We rationalize Big_Mike Jan 2016 #46

Or you want that percentage to be much be much lower to justify your feelings as normal. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2016 #47

It could be, just as well as the other. Big_Mike Jan 2016 #65

Your comparing two groups zipplewrath Jan 2016 #9

My post merely mentions the administration because of the claims made by advocates. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2016 #12

And the advocates are right zipplewrath Jan 2016 #16

Your posts are all over the place. This is too tedious to care about. Nuclear Unicorn Jan 2016 #17

A failure to communicate takes two zipplewrath Jan 2016 #18

"Advocates..." Beyond a declining MSM, who are they? Eleanors38 Jan 2016 #50

In 45 years? zipplewrath Jan 2016 #53

Very reasoned and I hope true. randr Jan 2016 #26

Which part of the demographics do you dispute? zipplewrath Jan 2016 #52

The issues you mention discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2016 #55

Based upon what? zipplewrath Jan 2016 #56

I acknowledged an influx of people... discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2016 #58

Over time zipplewrath Jan 2016 #62

I would take surveys with a grain of salt discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2016 #63

We're talking decades zipplewrath Jan 2016 #66

I think my skepticism points out the possibility... discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2016 #68

And you have evidence of this counter trend. zipplewrath Jan 2016 #71

That is about the only poll that shows a decline gejohnston Jan 2016 #64

So you have data to back this up zipplewrath Jan 2016 #67

you have a flawed survey gejohnston Jan 2016 #69

Why do you want to use an attack helicopter on people? DonP Jan 2016 #77

Reading is Fundamental. stone space Jan 2016 #78

You brought up using an attack helicopter DonP Jan 2016 #82

Aparently, you haven't watched the video. (nt) stone space Jan 2016 #83

Why are you fixated on death spewers like an attack helicopter? DonP Jan 2016 #84

You are behaving strangely, now. stone space Jan 2016 #85

My father died when I was a child, and my brother died many years ago. stone space Jan 2016 #93

Whose brother did I attack? Whose father? What did my dead father and brother do to you? stone space Jan 2016 #97

Did someone say you did? beevul Jan 2016 #99

That militant pacifism is useless... beevul Jan 2016 #103

You haven't demonstrated your point. (nt) stone space Jan 2016 #104

He has, you simply didn't get it: Militant pacifism only works against those with a conscience friendly_iconoclast Jan 2016 #105

I read an article once that pointed that out graphically DonP Jan 2016 #107

That merely indicates that the point can be easily demonstrated... beevul Jan 2016 #106
