  1. Hathor Ray Tell us about yourself. Well I'd like to start off with I am an asshole. Anyone who knows me knows this. I dont beat around the bush(except for gore's Bush) and I dont pull punches. For those that are sensitive I might not be there person for you, approach me at your own risk. Now I like playing osrs, I strongly dislike rs3. I also play league on occasion. I'm a very active person and I keep myself in good shape. Yes yas I have abs, no you cant touch them. Clan history. Ddc- merged our active member with wg. Wg- left for rl Wg- left (I dont remember why) Wg- left because of school Zt- left due to inactivity Wg- left due to inactivity Wg- hot booted for being an asshole How did you hear about us? I honestly dont remember Do you plan to join? I already joined back in 04, and I'm currently a member Any last comments? Despite the events of the last 24 hours I am still here, even if someone is trying to get me kicked. Thanks slump for actually looking into all the details even after you had kicked me and I k ow you learned a lot from this (though you already knew I was an asshole) much love to our staff. And those who fought on my behalf I thank you from the bottom of my heart (if I had one that is) and it means a lot that you guys like me so much that you would fight to keep me around.

  6. Its not 2 or more people dying, its 3 or more shot in a given context where a gun went off. But, I think I said something similar to you in my post above as well; just wanted to correct us both. We are both in over our heads in this debate; the statistics get misused so often, on both sides, that it is hard to have a solid ground to stand on. But I do think if we proceed as we are now it is worthwhile to share our thoughts and try to sift through the data. Again, its not two people dying but 3 shot; and I am not arguing for less action; I am warning that the statistic was being used inappropriately and, therefore, the conclusions that followed from it were flawed. But, we do need to do something. I am arguing against taking all guns, or severe restrictions on the guns allowed. I am pro magazine limits; pro automatic weapons ban; pro most explosives ban. I am against assault rifle (semi-automatic, accurate, well-designed rifle), bans for the reason given above against corrupt government. Yes, the government greatly overpowers the general population. Yes, technology is now to the point where drones could be used to take out citizens. But, given a population armed with assault rifles I think you are being dishonest if you don't see that as being a deterrent for many forms of physical oppression by the government. This would mean that should a government decided to use drones, or greater means against the citizens, it would show to the world just how corrupt it is. And perhaps the UK or other powerful nations would step up to help an oppressed population. These measure do not get at the psychological problems listed in an earlier post: mental illness, anger, division, despair, and most likely others. I am really unsure of what we can do; I do think, to move away a little, that the division between right and left in this country is more than a little to blame. Our population is becoming extreme on both sides of the aisle. We then isolate ourselves to groups who are like minded, with the aid of the internet, within the larger groups traditionally known as Democrats and Republicans. Within both these groups are extremists caught up in emotion and hate. I would venture to guess that a good percentage of mass shooters are in extreme sub-groups such as these and are not good representatives of the larger traditional political parties; take these thoughts with care as this is pure armchair philosophy and hard to prove. Just my opinion. The fix would be to make an honest effort to come together and give opposing group's ideas charity and try to understand the causes for those ideas. I think we will always have extremists, but we can try to limit that number through reason and understanding.

  8. From a Englishman: I live in a country where it is illegal for a civilian to buy or carry a gun around. I think for Agricultural workers and in some animal sports you can get an air rifle, and that's about it. Has there been mass shootings? So rarely, I don't even know. Geneuine question. What is so hard about looking statistically at countries with strict gun control and their gun crime rates? From a statistical standpoint, strict gun control would massively decrease gun crime. I understand that because there are SO many guns in the US, stricter gun control would not stop someone who really wanted one to get a gun. But giving someone the option to legally and seamlessly acquire something of that power, is ludicrous. A lot of recent mass shootings have been caused by young adults, if you cut out of ease of purchase, it would be an extra hurdle for someone with dark thoughts and major mental health trauma to jump through and be able to act on such hate and in turn, i think, WOULD reduce gun crime and mass shootings. Now, if you really wanted to stop seeing mass shootings on the news, it would be a matter of seriously considering that the only way would be to have strict gun laws and have some kind of roll back on currently legal, automatic, human killing designed products of war. But of course that is ridiculously resource heavy and an unpopular opinion. But just remember, if carrying a gun for you is for safety; that in turn is putting a gun in the hand of someone capable of such evil.

  9. I just had to stop by and say what a well written and thought out post @WG Townsman. Personally, I tend to usually stay well clear subjects like this, even though I have very good friends and even family that are Americans, and have visited several times myself and plan to continue to do so in the future. It is a very touchy subject and at the end of the day I'm not a citizen so despite how many links I have and how much data/statistics I can read, there's still elements I'll always be missing as someone who isn't a citizen. We've all got to admin, as Townsman alluded to there's certainly no "easy fix", and banning weapons won't suddenly make them disappear, the types that are willing to go out and do such atrocities won't really have a problem trying to acquire a weapon on the black market either. It's a really tough situation but I think both sides can agree something definitely needs to be done, what needs to be done unfortunately I think will get bogged down in red tape and legislation for many years to come either way and it's unfortunate that innocent victims will have to bear the brunt of that.
