I'd be fine with examining, redesigning and/or actually enforcing existing legislation or adding some if someone could show me how what they are proposing would have actually made a difference in some of the shootings that have taken place. Usually there are people trying to get legislation in place that will jump on the misery and tragedy of a shooting event and when examined, what they are trying to get passed has no bearing on whatever tragedy has occurred.
Perhaps if proposed legislation could be described from this perspective of putting a real world solution into place more gun ownership advocates would have no problem agreeing. Of course this is just a comedian talking and I shouldn't take him too seriously, I know that. And negating the point of how long a magazine swap would take by that "fast-fingers-Graham" bit shows he is just being entertaining. It just makes it hard to take him seriously about 90% of the things he says. |

as George Washington wrote,
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."
and George Mason said, "I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people... To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them." |

Hi, 5Cats,
why would you propose such a low quality link?
We non-americans could watch the original and make up our own opinion about Jon Stewart..

5:50 Teh stupid! It never stops!
He calls for "small bore laws" but also supports banning the AR-15 which is... SMALL BORE!
6:00 It's perfectly legal to own a tank. A guy in London drives one around for fun! Idiot. A CANNON is illegal, already! A machinegun is illegal, already! No one is arguing that, except gun-banners!
6:40 So guns kill more people than cancer (smoking) car accidents (alcohol) fires (arson) ACCIDENTAL FALLS (accidents). It is FAR from America's #1 killer, nor it's #1 "problem" and the "solutions" the gun-grabbers offer WILL NEVER WORK, EVER!
7:00 Jon CALLS FOR gun grabbing, then claims "the gov't isn't trying to grab your guns" and pretends it's all a joke? srsly?
8:00 "30,000 Gun Deaths... every year" wait, what? Really? You libtards just give him a "pass" for this blatent lie? |

5:25 "A bad guy with an assault rifle and a bullet-proof vest."
Ok gun-grabbers! Name one mass shooting in the USA where the killer had both those items! I mean a REAL assault rifle, a "machine gun" and a REAL vest, not what the Aurora Movie shooter had (which was an ordinary vest, not the least bit "bullet proof".)
I can think of a bank robbery that featured 2 men like that, but aside from them no one died iirc. And the solution was to GET BIGGER GUNS for the police. They stopped at a gun store and "borrowed some" - truth!
Jon wants "large clip bans", then mentions technology at 5:35. Know those "3D Printers"? You can make a functioning 30 round clip for an AK-47 using one. Or make one in your garage! It's just a box with a spring FFS!
SO: Even if you rounded up ALL the large clips in the USA, AND stopped more from entering? Are you going to BAN 3D printers too? |

In one statement he claims more laws "might help reduce" gun crimes.
THEN he says: the fact that a 10 year stricter gun law had NO EFFECT was irrelivant: more laws are needed. (2:25 apx)
So the increased # laws has no effect, the solution is make more laws? srsly?
As usual, this "News Clown" is not only wrong, self contradicting AND condecending, he's also following the MSM line to the letter...

Interesting... I'm one of the right wing 'gun-nuts' and I agreed with Jon right up until his last point. History repeats itself whether we accept it or not. Yes, we need to find ways to keep bad people from getting guns. But don't try to take guns from good people. You'll never see a greater divide in the states... Thank God I live in Texas! |
