See, that's what I love about conservatives. You believe it's bad to kill children just like I do. We agree on that. It's not a bigoted idea. Where your bigotry comes in is when you assume only you can have that feeling it's wrong to kill children. I said liberals don't get off on the idea of killing children. I didn't say liberals don't get off on killing children but conservatives do. I am saying that the idea of killing children does not have the same effect on a liberal mind as it does on a conservative mind. For example, liberals don't leap to the absurd notion that schools should be surrounded by gunmen because their brains didn't get all high on crack from being stimulated by fear and loathing. We look for rational solution, not hair brained, hair trigger ones. You don't want to send a conservative mind to solve a problem the evokes emotional fear. Your cingulate is too shrunken to moderate the effects of your overgrown amygdala. You are going to respond irrationally. Let healthy brains deal with the problem. You will only make it worse, but you are a bigot so you won't see that. You can't accept the fact you are defective and will insist on defective solutions. You would hate yourself if you could see how you are so you remain how you are and hateful to all who can't see the fact that you can't help being who you are. Try to see that you can't be blamed if you are helpless to help yourself.

Wrong asshat, you are the one who said "For liberals, the idea of killing children just has no natural appeal. A liberal just doesn't get off that way," so stop projecting your hatred onto others. With that much hatred towards Conservatives inside you the truth about your feelings is bound to slip out here and there.

I’ll take the Conservative Brain Defect over the bullshit that goes on inside your head any day. That much hatred will eat you up boy.

Untrained civilians...lol. So you have to have a uniform or be interviewed on TV to be an expert on on anything right ? :rolleyes: Most civilians I know with guns have more experience, practice, and training than you average budget constrained police department.

This is truth. Your average cop shoots one box a year for qualifications. Most civilian shooters do that and more every weekend. Even the so-called specialist cops are usually woefully incompetent.

I was at the shooting range when the Salem PD (Oregon) "sniper team" showed up to qualify. Many barely managed to hit the 5x5 card with their taxpayer funded fancy custom rifles. Pathetic. Also watch the video of the Jose Guerena murder and observe the keystone cops sweep each other, discharge their guns recklessly without even aiming, etc. And that's the SWAT team, supposedly the most well trained cops.

Agreed. The OP got owned badly in the other thread and now he is coming back for round 2

Bullshit. After idiots posting idiot shit time and time and again and taking the time to show how idiot they are I just decided to let our fanatical, ignorant and uneducated members just circle jerk themselves as they keep trying to find a link on the internet that "proves" their right. Really the only thing left for those idiots was to claim alcohol was illegal because of the 18th amendment.

When I was growing up, there was an actual, armed cop stationed at every school. His car would always be out front. He had his own office. We all knew who he was, and he often walked around the school. I'm in Florida, but do other states do this?

Oh you mean those idiots that find links to Congressional Websites where the law is clearly spelled out rather than going from some bloviated liberal media source to create forum sigs.

Our High School actually had a full time Narcotics Officer/Depty Sheriff. Our Vice Principal as well as one other faculty member were Reserve Deputies so odds are there were 3 armed cops at any one time.

Sometimes I just feel that people need to use common sense. Hmm. If I were a cop I would be damn sure I could hit what I was aiming at because I kinda want to stay alive.
Claiming cops are apparently not as interested in marksmanship as the average person doesn't pass my common sense meter.

Now don't pretend to be stupid. I didn't have to invent some why out of what I said. The idea of killing kids isn't thinking of killing kids, it's the subject of kid killing, thinking about that subject, having to deal with it. I know exactly the f what I meant and you have no f'ing idea. Please have the human decency not to tell me differently than what I know I meant. It's terrible manners and disgusting. It makes you look very very hateful. That much hatred IS eating you up. So there we have the issue all plain for everybody to see. You wanted to express your hatred for me, but to do so I had to violate one of your rules. You got to express your hate when you pretended I called you a lover of, I can't say it, but you know what. Sad really, but to be expected because you don't know yourself. You are just a little hate bomb waiting to go off. I told you that you will have to forgive yourself for your own hate to stop projecting it on others. It's your own self loathing for feelings you actually do have that filths up the world. It's the fact that you are riddled with guilt that makes you mean. And look what it lead to. You want to assassinate me. I am only as mirror. Try not to kill what you see.

The bull shit that goes on in my head is your ticket to freedom from your brain defect. Don't settle for one or mock the other. Go for a cure. Let go of your ego opinions.

You were born perfect and have been forgiven, no? Be happy and let God sort everything out. My understanding is that it's not your job.

You are still projecting your hatred onto others. This not a onetime thing with you, it is glaringly obvious from your post history. You try to blame the exact thing you said on me by saying “you assume only you can have that feeling it's wrong to kill children.” What are you, 5 years old? The sad thing is when you are not blaming others for the exact thing you do you are a one trick pony. You use the same line over and over like a bad comedian telling the same joke to the same audience hoping to get the same laughter. Brain Defect, Brain Defect, Brain Defect, Brain Defect…….

Your common sense meter is completely broken: http://confederateyankee.mu.nu/archives/316833.php


Many people assume that the police are generally expert shots. Not so. Many officers aren’t particularly fond of guns, and a surprising number own no firearms other than their issued handgun. Because ammunition is expensive, particularly when one is equipping an entire police force, most Law Enforcement Organizations (LEOs) tend to hold qualifications only once a year. The courses of fire for such qualifications tend to be relatively easy, require less than 50 rounds, and qualifying scores are generous. Officers are often allowed to shoot as many times as necessary to achieve a barely passing score

Could you possibly have found a less reputable website? Or an article that quoted less facts? I mean SERIOUSLY I went through the first 6 huge paragraphs and can't find ONE fact.

Just shows you don't know anything about guns or the gun community. Confederate Yankee is a well-known gun blogger and a former SWAT member. The fact that he is politically conservative doesn't undermine the validity of his firearms and police tactics commentary. That article is an apolitical analysis of the Guenera shooting which I cited to prove the incompetence of cops.

Not all civilians are trained shootists, but most cops are incompetent or worse (due to assumed competence).

The author has not one citation nor link nor survey, nor study, etc. He just rambles on telling us what is going on IN HIS OPINION.

There is a difference between fact and opinion.

Here's a big HINT. If it says immediately under the name of the web page:
Because liberalism is a persistent vegetative state.

You also might want to find out what a paid blog is because thats your source. A paid blog.

You might want to assume people will make fun of you for thinking its a reputable website designed to be fair, accurate and factual.

LOL, you want surveys, links and studies to prove cops are incompetent shooters. Because the well-known annual qualifications process, coupled with the well-known fact that shooting is a perishable skill, doesn't lead to the conclusion that most cops are incompetent shooters?

Do you really think commentary on firearms, guns and shooting must be qualified by political views? Like how Jewish science was not valid in Nazi Germany? Read the article and tell me where the author's political bias affects his analysis of the police shooting.

Here's more proof:

Training for something out of mandatory need vs. doing it all the time because you enjoy it?

It wasn't a blanket statement for all cops, many of then are also gun enthusiasts in their civilian life. Majority of good cops out there had the know how, self discipline and training, and mindset as a civilian long before they decided they wanted to be cops and do something they already enjoy for a pay check.

My point wasn't to discredit police training so much as dispelling the fantasy that civilians can't do anything and everybody should always defer to "the experts" as the media has so brainwashed our society into believing.

I think I am beginning to understand the delusions of the gun nuts.
Apparently they disregard things like the vast majority of Americans living in cities. And that the vast majority of gun owners have them for home protection. And the vast majority of those maybe go to the gun range a few times just til they get the hang of how to use it.

I guess when you live in the backwoods and have to shoot varmints to eat it is easy to think that most people go down to gun ranges a few times a month and fire a few hundred rounds.

In fact, that delusion fits in nicely with the idea that having a gun will keep the government from going out of control.

And not only taking as facts stuff written in a paid blog with no studies, facts, surveys or ANYTHING is undeniabley true but a valid form of argument is just the icing on the cake.

Of course, every overthrow of almost all 1st and 2nd world governments is done by people marching in the streets of cities and being civilly disobediant. Or that all those gun nut heroes would wet their pants if the Army showed up with an APC or a tank or even a 50 cal and said surrender or we'll cut your house in half.

It really makes sense. The idea that everone is a gun nut and primarily practices shooting fits in nicely with all the other weird tin foil hat shit.

You were given current links to the current law on the site of the US Congress.

You're a liar. Period.

You know what? You came back with bullshit 4 times in that thread. Posting crap from old laws that were changed more than once since they were passed.

Who the fuck has time to debate someone who is too dumb to understand what a fact is? I am not even going to look at the "site of Congress" Hell, I can read in the Congressional record thousands of things that are NOT true. Congress is not where I go to find out the laws. Congressman put tons of bullishit in the Congressional record. Heck they can even have what they said changed before it is published. The laws are in the Federal Criminal statues, regulatory decisions and court decisions.

You can argue that black and white people can't get married because you read the "law" in some southern states codes. But they can because the Supreme Court says they can.

So, the fact that you are wrong, and even the mod who you complained to like a whiny bitch agrees, tells me you are either mentally deficient or psycho or just playing games.

I am not changing my thread because it is factually accurate, I proved it, and YOU LOST YOUR COMPLAINT.

Nah, you just have no fucking clue what you are talking about because the most shooting you've ever done is a couple pot shots from some relative's .22lr, if at all, and yet you still have the audacity to sneer at "untrained civilians".

By the way, city-dweller here, and I still shoot at least 200 rounds weekly between handguns and rifles. I'd say my assessment of firearms and their capabilities means more than your bullshit guesses.
