And this is why I don't understand the US mentality. If someone is ready to cause mayhem, why do I give him the option to arm himself up to his teeth. You will have these kind of people in every society on this planet. What you can do is to make it difficult for them as far as possible so they can't take many lives. Try going on a amok with just a knife. You won't get that far. But if people have access to submachine guns and the like, the kill count will be obviously higher. Preventing it by arming the other side also with guns is just ridiculous. Stricter gun controls and registration should be common sense aswell as psychological tests for the people who own a gun. If you are determined to get a gun and have the knowledge to do so, then you will eventually get one. But the risk of getting caught will also be higher due to higher controls. |
Well there's a difference between crazy and someone with malicious intent. There are sane people who want to shoot other people. And you can't weed out all of those people. As for "arming himself to the teeth," depends on your state really. In some states you could certainly buy a lot of hand guns but you can't go out there like Rambo crossed with Iron Man. And automatic weapons are really freaking hard to obtain legally in the United States. Every purchase of one requires a lot of paperwork and waiting and that's just the federal level. States have their own rules and regulations, some have made them totally illegal on any private level. And various states require special licenses to own them at all, a regular concealed carrier permit won't cover an automatic weapon. And then on top of that, they are not cheap. As in REALLY not cheap. Good odds are, any submachine gun murder you hear about was done with an illegally obtained weapon. Assuming it was an automatic weapon and not limited to a subautomatic mode. And owning an unregistered submachine gun is very serious offense and will get you thrown in federal prison.
Like I said, more regulation is not necessarily a bad thing. But I am against disarming large segments of the police cause that won't help anything either. And I firmly believe any person in their right mind has a right to have a fire arm for defense. Doesn't mean I think peeople should own riot shotguns and M16s but I have no qualms nor do I think the government should prevent the ownership of, say, a Glock or a Sig Sauer by law abiding people.
Without knowing if the officers are at fault.... someone took it upon him self to get justice? by killing alot of cops?
W T F!
Seriously america needs to get rid of all the guns... to many crazy's.

The guy(s) shot them from a vantage point while they were just patrolling near a protest. They weren't at fault, they weren't even threatening anyone at any point. It was a nonviolent protest and a run of the mill police presence.

This would happen even if having a gun wasnt easy to get/find.Dont fool yourself:This was a planned hit.Finding/buying a gun from someone willing to sell it is the easiest part of it.
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

and?
The video is joke. We don't even know when it was taken. Before, after or during the shootings.
I am sorry, but I am not gonna blame police officers protecting themselves in a country where every individual can go out and buy a gun. Inlcuding someone like the Orlando shooter who was investigated by the freaking FBI and was under their watch.

1. There is no "the police" or "the black people!. All people are individuans. If 2 police officers do a crime, the police at all did nothing wrong. If a waiter kills a black guys, its not the fault of "all waiters" either,.
2. It isnt even known if the 2 cops that shot black people really acted wrong. Both blakc guys carried guns, we dont know what happened exactly (at least in the very short video). We are all not judges and we all werent in the situation, so we should stop prejudge people.

The drug dealer who was told not to move yet was still trying to reach the gun in his pocket.
