When did I ever say "it's as simple as guns are bad"? I don't support the idea of private gun ownership,

Right there, you just did it. Ok, you didn't say 'guns are bad' in those exact words, but if you don't trust the general public with guns, then I am willing to bet that you do not admire or approve of firearms.

Yes. Privately owned guns represent more societal harm than good, after weighing the value of guns as entertainment and the probable amount and severity of crime stopped by them against the rate of wrongful death and injury by firearm private ownership just doesn't seem to be a net win for us. Note the weight of good against harm here because it addresses most of the common objections by advocates of gun ownership, namely the "why don't you ban cars" argument (because they have a large social benefit) and the "but you can still kill people with lead pipes" (true, but it doesn't change the fact that the world without gun ownership seems to be more peaceful than the one with, even if murder still happens)

Ahhh, collectivism. I don't give a fuck about 'a net win for us', I care about having the ability and option to arm myself if I see fit.

Wut? I mean sure I guess but you can steal a cops gun today if you really want to try. I think it's probably easier to steal guns from the general population than from a trained police officer.

A trained police officer isn't some superhero, it is just a guy, usually quite low on the intellectual scale. Criminals steal cops guns all the time, and even kill the cops with their own guns. It's such a problem, that police holsters are specially made to be resistant to being pulled from the holster by someone other than the officer. Criminals still get the guns even with the special holsters.

When it's the right decision, quite well. Compulsory education has been tremendously beneficial to society, playing a large part in our ability to organize ourselves in as large social structures as we do. Compare places without coercive law enforcement to those with. Certainly the criminal system in the US is not ideal but it's doing far better than places where vigilante "justice" is the law keeping force. Roads, public utilities, mandatory vaccination, dietary supplementation are among many examples of the populace being forced into making the right choice.

You have no way of knowing that our modern infrastructure is the result of being compelled to do anything, and you have no way of knowing what vigilante justice would look like in our modern society.

I know, your knee-jerk reaction is to portray 'anarchy' as a hotbed of rioting and murder, all you leftists do it, but I am not convinced.

'Forced to make the right choice'? Are you sure about that? Are you sure it isn't 'we ended up like this in spite of jackass socialists trying to turn humanity into a giant ant farm'?

How on earth does the latter follow from the former? "If people don't need to drink 30 gallons of water a day then they don't need water at all" if obviously not true, why is it suddenly a different story when we get to cops?

There is nothing a cop can do for me that I can't do for myself. Matter of fact, I have had my car stolen, and my parents house burglarized, and the cops didn't do a goddamn thing. They are too busy looking for drug forfeiture targets. I am pretty sure I know who broke into my parents house, but they are in prison right now (for drugs) so I can't do anything about it, The car thing, I have no idea who did that, but when the cops recovered my car, they had it towed by a tow company that 'doesn't have a contract with the city', so I had to pay to get my own fucking stolen car out of impound.

so basically you're calling me a pretentious faggot? my job is done here.

You don't even have the 'sophistication' to be pretentious. In other words, you are just a boring, attention whoring slob. Comb your fucking hair and take some penicillin before your dick falls off.

I have mentioned before that I don't like you, Bill Krozby, but I have never really went into why. Mostly it is because, when I bring it up, you act genuinely concerned about it, like 'why don't you like me?' and it touches something human inside me and I feel bad and never follow through. But this time, you didn't do that. You tried to be a hard ass, and tell me to calm down. You want to know why I don't like you, Bill Krozby? It's because you don't contribute. What have you ever contributed to this place? Everything about you is Bill Krozby, Bill Krozby, Bill Krozby. From posting pictures of you and your fucking cat, constantly, for years, to crowdsurfing your way into 'sophistication' without any discernable effort beforehand, fuck you Bill Krozby. All your posts are about you, the music you like, your opinion, the fucking nasty, fat bitches you are fucking, or whatever, And it's not like some big surprise or anything, I have been telling you this for years., But you are too fucking dumb to listen. I saw that you started posting less pictures of yourself, so I figured that maybe there was some hope. And then you showed your true nature. Remember tainted browser? How you ran there when you got banned from redfern and PMed me 'Is there anything I can do to help this place grow?' your exact words. They unbanned you an hour later, and you went back. It's fine, I don't care where you post, but its what you did afterwards. When you were back at redfern, someone asked you if you posted at TB while you were banned, and you said, 'Yeah, they tried to get me to post over there but fuck that place'. You are two faced, and you sicken me. I mean, after a while, looking at your greasy face and homeless guy haircut wears thin, once you find out there is nothing under the veneer, it gets old, Bill Krozby, it really does. Your posts bore me and you are a terrible person. Ok?

I just typed this off the top of my head, I bet if I thought about it, I could come up with several more reasons why I don't like you. I may post some later if I am up.

What, exactly do you think an example is? If I could provide a few more examples of countries with strict gun control and low incidence of gun crime would you admit you're wrong?

Even it that was 100% true (and it's obviously not) we would still have a compelling case for banning private ownership of firearms.

Only if you admit that the issue of weapons ownership isn't as simple as 'Guns are Bad!'

There are many compelling reasons why people need to own weapons:

black bears

niggers

rapists

niggers

wild dogs

cougars

niggers

mexicans

niggers

young niggers

Are you honestly saying that all guns should be banned from private ownership:?

I am not going to insult your intelligence by saying that 'we need guns to protect against a tyrannical government', because I think that is some fantasy land shit

but there are many practical reasons why people can, and should, own firearms, if nothing else, for protection against predatory animals or people.

And of course, you want the cops and military to be armed....like, what is wrong with you? God, I will never understand leftism.

An armed cop with an unarmed populace is an engraved invitation to steal the cops 'real' gun. All it takes is a simple ambush.

You're right, most people don't have time to treat a 200 year old document drafted by some ignorant motherfuckers like some kind of unquestionable source of divine truth, nor should they.

Except this, empirically, is not the case. However easy you feel it is to manufacture firearms, it's clearly hard enough that banning private ownership will cause a significant drop in rates of gun crime. Look, for example, at Japan.

there is no 'for example', japan is a singular case.

I think that the whole 'reduction in crime rates' thing when firearms are restricted, is singularly due to niggers not being smart enough to make ad-hoc firearms, and if they can't readily get ahold of a real one, they just go back to chucking spears or whatever. Niggers are the group that is responsible for 99% of 'gun crime', all over the world.

yeah well… anarcho capitalists are wrong there. Left entirely to their own devices most people could probably survive, sure, but mere survival of its citizens is like the "not-a-genocidal-regime" criteria, hardly desirable. Look at all the dumb shit you see people do every day in the news or even just functional adults who do fairly minor yet obviously harmful things to themselves. You can't entrust everyone's well being to themselves because making good decisions requires intelligence and exactly half the population is of below average intelligence. Under the rule of a powerful state it's possible to have everyone make the best possible decision on every subject where the truth of the matter is known.

So,if people are going to do stupid and harmful things no matter what, then there is no point in maintaining an unwieldy, expensive, and oppressive 'big government'.

If people don't need a cop looking over their shoulder every minute of the day, then ultimately they don't need cops at all.

Coercing people to 'make the best possible decisions'.....how's that working out for us? Not well....

So one way you could approach it is to say that firearm ownership is not a fundamental right, you can opt for privacy or you can own guns. Consider that many research institutes need to surrender their "right to privacy" to obtain controlled materials and that policy is largely uncontroversial.

The real answer is that the left proper (not moderates who get called liberals because of the US's skewed political spectrum) doesn't give a shit about privacy, the significance of Roe v. Wade is not privacy rights, which was simply a popular cover that worked at the time, but the obvious issue of abortion. The supreme court makes efforts to maintain some semblance of continuity with historical courts but the reality is that the legal justifications seem to be largely post-hoc. It would be a deeply disturbing fact about the political balance of power if not for the fact that they've made consistently better decisions than any other branch of government since the new deal era.

I posit that firearm ownership is more than just a fundamental right, because I can go out in my garage and make a zip gun anytime I want. If I had a lathe and some machine shop tools, I could make rifled barrels. You can't stop that. Ever.

Ban or restrict all guns,and I can go arm myself in a few hours. Then I will be a wolf among sheep.

2015-07-25 at 7:46 PM UTC in why is it legal

arthur treacher African Astronaut

Your government also doesn't trust its own citizens with firearms. Drugs are much easier to get on the black market than firearms, so I am fine with the status quo over here.

I have always wondered, why do all australians, well every one I have ever interacted with, are all social justice warriors and leftists of the worst stripe?

arthur treacher African Astronaut

I would always laugh at how the birds did things

they would sit on the telephone wires, looking down at the food, and then they would send one bird to investigate

first the scout bird would do a fly by

then it would land nearby for a second, then fly away again

then it would come back and land a bit closer, but only for a second

then they land next to the food and fly away again

if nothing happens, the bird comes back and starts eating, and all the other birds come

its pretty funny

just put the dog food in a pile on the ground

any dry dog food will do

a pellet gun isn't that loud, it sounds like a screen door slamming or something.

I forgot to add, you will need a 'blind', or some cover where the birds can't see you\

they like, send scouts to check the food, so wait until they get comfortable with the situation before shooting

we would sit inside a room and shoot outside through an open window
