Re: Gun Control
Maybe you might be suprised how many responsible gun owners and collectors have been in the military or highly trained for government contract work or just enthusiasts that went out and got trained. I know some verry smart people that collect and invest in firearms ( some are even Liberals). :wave:...

Re: Gun Control
I do remember a little something about a " well regulated militia" whippin the stuffin out of a bunch of stuffy Brit's! :monkey: :stoned: Those militia lasted less than six months before a the rebels could set up a proper army. Also, the English couldn't send their army in full force to f...

Re: Gun Control

It would be amusing that the ban was renewed and that grandfather clause was not included :mrgreen: Mao was a typical tyrant. He disarmed the Chinese people and then...

Hmm. I'm not sure everyone is accurate. Looking at that, a woman could not survive on breast milk alone for very long. Anyone have anything to correct that, or any idea how to calculate the starvation point? From your numbers, self consumption of breast milk has a roughly neutral energy balance. Lo...

Until then, have you been following the past 2-3 years of school massacres in China? Plenty of examples of more than 4 or 5 victims (children and adults alike). China is a strange strange place.

Re: Gun Control
Even if it's just the members of the same household? (that's a situation i can see that could be done with bladed or blunt weapons).Mass killings are typically classified as those incidents in which four or more victims were killed within a 24-hour period.
