Artful Dodger: Just watch, the next news story could say something like 'Farting causes painful asteroids.'

Iamon lyme: cow farts!

(V): Ahhh, PJ media is great. BTW, did you hear any feedback on Obama's State of Confusion speech?

Artful Dodger: I guess this pjmedia lot rely on preconceived right wing hysteria alot then!!

Iamon lyme: I'm sure there are, but the trade is just not worth it. eheheheh

Artful Dodger: dude .. that line is so old... it makes you look young!!

" The politicians don't care about dead kids. Example: Chicago and Detroit."

What about Texas.. One of the worst states in the US for child deaths and abuse.

Iamon lyme: yeah. People get fired but don't kill innocent people. What a sick jerk. He's in hell now probably.

Artful Dodger: Dorner claimed his termination was unfair, then went and proved to everyone there was probably justification for his termination.

Iamon lyme: Alex is a bit of an over the top nut. That's why Morgan picked him. Ratings. Nutty people sell.

Artful Dodger: I've never even heard of the guy until V mentioned him... but now I know why V mentioned him. I should have known it meant something, but the truth is most of the time I don't care. I don't follow a story just because "It's been in the news!!" Good grief... I have nothing but time on my hands, but that doesn't mean I want to waste any of it on goofy news stories.

But "the left" is still crazy


http://pjmedia.com/andrewklavan/2013/02/10/the-truth-about-dorner-leftism-is-violence/

Iamon lyme: lol and I've never listened to jones. No one I know takes him seriously except Jesse Ventura.

from The Telegraph

"Earlier this week Morgan invited radio host Alex Jones, a gun advocate, onto his show. Mr Jones, who claims that the US government was involved in the September 11 terror attacks, repeatedly screamed at Mr Morgan and went on several incoherent rants in which he blamed "suicide pills" for gun violence."

Okay, so Morgan went out of his way to get the nuttiest guest he could find for that interview... no big surprise. So what's next for Morgan, finding someone who blames the September 11 terror attacks on aliens from outer space? If Morgan wants to conduct his program like a trashy tabloid rag, then what's the big deal? Most of the major news shows have sunk to that level anyway, so as far as prevailing standards of newscasting go he hasn't actually broken any taboos.

(V): Maybe we can work out a trade. You got any US citizens over there you don't want?

(V): "No way!!!! He's your problem now."

Aha, I knew it! But other than being an annoying prig what did he do? On what grounds is anyone saying he should be deported?

Sharon Osbourne is okay, she can stay. Howie Mandel is Canadian but I don't hold that against him, so he can stay too.

(V): It's mostly the hype from the left that's driving the gun debate. The gun lobby is simply answering the critics. There are bigger problems that the US is facing and those problems are being ignored. It's all political. The politicians don't care about dead kids. Example: Chicago and Detroit.

The Col: He did a series of 'life stories' where he gets to interview celebs on a one to one basis, aka PR stunt for the celeb... he only got religion after he started working in the US. He lied regarding the phone hacking and his involvement, wouldn't even come back to the UK to lie face to face.

He's as sincere as a fake tan.

(V): If only I believed Morgan was sincere, and his gun assault wasn't just a desperate attempt at being noticed/ratings

Iamon lyme: No way!!!! He's your problem now. We don't want him.

HA HA HA.... we tricked your tv people into signing him up, payback for the tea party!!!

lol

And the Gov'nment has been spanked over back to work schemes that are unpaid.

Not that people do not want to work... but if they are willing to work as a volunteer at a local museum for free... it does not mean they will work for Poundland for free under a scheme known as the "sector-based work academy".

... to ask a person to work 30 hours a week for six months in a "Community Action Programme" for free.

A mate of mine in the past use to get extra to take into account of his expenses for doing a degree via the OU... 20 odd years ago that was £10. It use to be part time workers on obtaining a full time job would get a lump sum based on a 50/50 split of the money the social deducted from any benefits to make the jump to full from part time easier.

... kinda covered any travelling expenses, etc till that first pay check.

(V): "Some pro gunners tried to get Piers Morgan deported. It's been in the news!!"

If Piers Morgan is the dude I think you are talking about (I think he was a judge on a talent show in the US) then I won't interfere with anyones effort to deport him.

Now... it appears to places in the UK could have deliberately processed horse meat for use in food products in the UK.

The Romanian PM is angry abattoirs in Romania have been linked to supplies of horse meat. Romanians are unhappy that horse and buggy's are banned from the roads.

... It's not the horse meat that is the real problem... but certain items given to horses that is not good for humans.

Iamon lyme: I guess you get annoyed by silly left wing just like I get annoyed by silly left and right wing stuff. Of course the 2nd was not about the right to hunt... that was just how it was back then, people hunted game... as they do still now. N' no it in some places is a necessity. People make a living out of it.

..... dude

(V): "I've seen people who treat guns as a tool.. hunting, etc"

I've heard people on the left who believe the 2nd amendment addresses the right to hunt. Seriously, is loving ridiculous rhetoric any less nutz than someone 'loving' their gun? The 2nd amendment has nothing to do with people obtaining food for their families. Granted, today it's more of a luxury than a necessity, but does anyone really believe a right to gather food for themselves (hunting) would need to be included in any list of rights?

The 1st and 2nd amendments appear first and second on the list... they were not afterthoughts. To suggest the second amendment had anything to do with a right to hunt is tantamount to assuming it addresses the right to eat... ?

It was assumed that weapons would be used for hunting, so I doubt it occured to anyone back then to include a right to obtaining groceries in the constitution.

Iamon lyme: No... I was commentating that the NRA and pro gun groups have been just as vocal as the anti gun groups.

"Membership in the NRA grew by a quarter of a million people in the month following the massacre of innocent school children... it had nothing to do with the NRA promoting anything. It was a reaction by people who were horrified by the mass murdering of children"

A knee jerk reaction by people who are horrified it could happen to their children. I get that, I get people joining the NRA... 250K over the whole country... ok. The NRA have been defending the 2nd amendment. Some pro gunners tried to get Piers Morgan deported. It's been in the news!!

...promoting the 2nd is nothing? Saying assault rifles are normal is nothing??

Dude..... don't make me dude you!! as in Basketball duding ;P

(V): [ "If they keep this up, more people will own guns than ever in the history of the US. People who have never shot a gun are buying one. And bullets are being sold like crazy. All thanks to the hype from the left."

All the hype from the left, no-one else... like the NRA and right wing fear/love the gun promoters. ]


Membership in the NRA grew by a quarter of a million people in the month following the massacre of innocent school children... it had nothing to do with the NRA promoting anything. It was a reaction by people who were horrified by the mass murdering of children, but it was also prompted by the Presidents lame efforts to captalize on this tragedy. It's bad enough that it happened, but the President unwittingly fanned the flames of indignation by trying to use it to promote one of his political agendas. So once again, you underestimate the "unwashed masses" ability to think for themselves.

Artful Dodger: No... That's how the gun lobbyists see it. N' of course no one is going to end the 2nd amendment.


"Anyone can search the internet and find numerous examples of mass murders with weapons like knives, cars, trucks, axes, - you name it- "

Yes, but I stated before... a gun does make it easier to kill more people.

""True that a gun is easier to kill with. But so what? That's NOT the argument being put forth.""

It is part of my argument.

"If they keep this up, more people will own guns than ever in the history of the US. People who have never shot a gun are buying one. And bullets are being sold like crazy. All thanks to the hype from the left."

All the hype from the left, no-one else... like the NRA and right wing fear/love the gun promoters.

" When they talk about banning a certain semi-automatic, that particular gun experiences record sales! Way to go lefties"

Why is it always the lefts' fault? I've seen people who treat guns as a tool.. hunting, etc.. state this love of guns is .... .... nutz

"Nurse Stanek was horrified to learn that some premature infants born alive had been placed in a dirty laundry closet to gasp out their young lives. Jill Stanek rocked them and sang to these poor little ones as their young lives ebbed away."

And the hospital/clinic has not been put under investigation? It's a blame it on Obama moment?

"And do any of you on the left see the conflict in opposing waterboarding (Obama opposes it) BUT favoring killing suspected terrorists without a trial of any kind? (Obama supports killing suspected terrorists but not waterboarding them)"

Killing in battle, killing them because they are in a place they shouldn't be.

So many no real meaning bits....

American Thinker is not very lucid. ;)

How many people are YOU willing to let die so you don't violate your expressed values?

And do any of you on the left see the conflict in opposing waterboarding (Obama opposes it) BUT favoring killing suspected terrorists without a trial of any kind? (Obama supports killing suspected terrorists but not waterboarding them)

So lets see if I have this straight:
Waterboarding is bad.
Killing (it's an assination) is good.

Where is the outcry lefties?

*crickets*

This was in a gun control speech. But is Obama REALLY concerned about the life of EVEN ONE child?

...

Nowhere does State Sen. Barack Obama's greatest achievement in Springfield get attention these days. But he made it his business to take a stand on Illinois' Infant Born-Alive Protection Act. On many controversial matters, he voted "Present," but on this one bill, he led the effort to kill the measure.

That bill would have required protection for a child born alive following an unsuccessful attempt to kill it through abortion. The bill was intended to protect newborns like those cradled and comforted by Chicago nurse Jill Stanek. Nurse Stanek was horrified to learn that some premature infants born alive had been placed in a dirty laundry closet to gasp out their young lives. Jill Stanek rocked them and sang to these poor little ones as their young lives ebbed away.

Now, when State Sen. Obama killed that measure, it was a most doubtful constitutional matter. The Fourteenth Amendment was passed in 1868, shortly after President Lincoln had succeeded in freeing the slaves through his Emancipation Proclamation, and just three years after the Thirteenth Amendment formally abolished slavery throughout America.

Why would the Fourteenth Amendment be necessary? Because some states were still denying "the equal protection of the laws" to freedmen and women. This amendment stated that "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Barack Obama was a teacher of constitutional law at the University of Chicago. Surely, he had read the text of one of the most important of Civil War Reconstruction Amendments.

And yet, he voted to deny equal protection of the law to infants born in the United States.

He led the fight to strip the citizenship rights of these children born in Illinois.

So, for Barack Obama, abortion through the entire nine months of pregnancy is not enough. The lives of children already born must be pursued. The license of abortion he defends would extend to the right to a dead child.

(V): Everytime there's a mass killing the phony politicians try to dismantle the 2nd amendment. It's not gonna happen.

In Japan: At 10:15 that morning, 37-year-old former janitor Mamoru Takuma entered the school armed with a kitchen knife and began stabbing numerous school children and teachers. He killed eight children, mostly between the ages of seven and eight, and seriously wounded thirteen other children and two teachers.

Akihabara massacre: At 12:33 p.m. JST, a man hit a crowd with a truck, eventually killing three people and injuring two; he then stabbed at least 12 people using a dagger (initially reported as a survival knife[1]), killing four people and injuring eight.

Anyone can search the internet and find numerous examples of mass murders with weapons like knives, cars, trucks, axes, - you name it- !

True that a gun is easier to kill with. But so what? That's NOT the argument being put forth.

BTW, people who have been arguing FOR gun control, they have been responsible for the HUGE SURGE in gun sales across the US. More guns are being bought and sold than ever before. Not exactly what the left was hoping for. If they keep this up, more people will own guns than ever in the history of the US. People who have never shot a gun are buying one. And bullets are being sold like crazy. All thanks to the hype from the left.

So instead of limiting gun ownership the left has managed to create a situation where people are buying more guns than ever before. When they talk about banning a certain semi-automatic, that particular gun experiences record sales! Way to go lefties!!!!

And like I said, I don't own a gun. But I can knock you over with a deadly fart from ten feet.

Artful Dodger: Is their some relevance to such info? Suicides and murder being different things.

"The no thinkers don't realise that reducing the number of bullets in a magazine only means that a killer intent on mass murder will need to take more magazines with him."

More reloading slows down the killing. More chance people will escape or be capable of taking the killer down.

OMG...... It's like Alex Jones all over again..

Wales is part of the UK. So is Scotland and Northern Ireland... as is England.

Not sure if the channel islands are in those figures, or the Isle of Man... But seeing as they are part of the UK.... probably yes.

Btw I don't own a gun but I know from experience that my wife packs a powerful kick!

(V): in a perfect world no one needs guns. But...

Iamon lyme: exactly right. I must be smarter than I look because you say smart things and I agree with them!

(V): "Read more via your search engine rather relying on bad thinkers."

You can't find bad thinkers using your search engine? Why, what's wrong with your search engine?

The problem we have in the US isn't so much the bad thinkers as it is the no thinkers. The no thinkers don't realise that reducing the number of bullets in a magazine only means that a killer intent on mass murder will need to take more magazines with him. It won't do anything to stop a mass murderer from waltzing into a gun free zone to do as he pleases, until someone finally shows up to stop him... but most of the time that doesn't happen, and they don't stop until they decide to kill themselves.

And if the no thinkers understood how much hot air has been coming out of Washington they would realise that global temperatures will be rapidly rising. Within a few months from now it should become noticeably warmer. I predict this warming trend will begin peaking in June and July, and by August it could become unbearably hot.

Artful Dodger: "especially those politicians that are long-timers"

Without term limits there is always a strong motivation to do or say whatever it takes to stay in office. A lot of politicians start off with good intentions, but then are tempted to keep their cushy jobs. The same thing can happen to good teachers... tenure can become the goal instead of good teaching.

(V): It certainly wouldn't stop a liberal from having a gun, if that's what he wanted.

As a group liberals don't exactly have a sterling track record when it comes to obeying laws they don't agree with. In principle they would comply with restrictive guns laws because this is what they want, at least for the time being... unless or until they change their minds. When it's about laws they agree with they are adamant about compliance, but with laws they don't agree with they talk about and encourage civil disobedience.

Iamon lyme: Japan has more suicides than the US and they have no gun laws. So it's not about guns anyway. Obama claims it's about "the kids" and yet he never speaks up about the hundreds that die in crime ridden DEMOCRATIC run districts. Detroit was destroyed by the liberals. Moderate liberals are ok but the far left are enemies of all that is decent. I'd even go further and say that the far left are traitors to America.

As for the Right, MANY on the right, especially those politicians that are long-timers, are just as bad as those on the far left. They are incompetent buffoons and need to be first water-boarded, and then put in stocks.

Naked.

(And by the Right I don't mean ANY in the Tea Party)

(V): You didn't include Wales in your stats.

AD said "...the most recent government statistics show gun crimes in England and Wales have gone from 5,209 in 1998 to 9,865 in 2012 -- an increase of 89 per cent."

You said "Of the 30,470 firearm-related deaths in the United States in 2010, 19,392 (63.6%) were suicide deaths, and 11,078 (36.4%) homicide deaths."

It's not a good comparison because not all gun crimes result in death. And it's not clear if suicides are always included in stats showing gun crimes... suicide is illegal but the 'criminal' is also the victim, so whether suicide counts as a gun crime or not is unclear. Also, if gun ownership is almost completely banned in the UK, then how do you account for there being any gun crime? Where did the guns come from and who has them?

A complete prohibition against gun ownership would mean that gun sales and ownership would be illegal instead of legal... and that's all it would mean. It can't actually stop anyone from getting and using a gun.

(V): You'll never take the guns from US citizens without bloodshed. It won't happen.

USA .... 3.6 deaths per 100,000 gun related murder.
UK ... 0.04 deaths per 100,000 gun related murder.

UK
2010: 27
2009: 18
2008: 32
2007: 22
2006: 51
2005: 41
2004: 52
2003: 41
2002: 31
2001: 41
1999: 45
1998: 33

Of the 30,470 firearm-related deaths in the United States in 2010, 19,392 (63.6%) were suicide deaths, and 11,078 (36.4%) homicide deaths.

IE bad American pro gun stats are a straw-man argument.
Read more via your search engine rather relying on bad thinkers.
As shown on TV via Piers Morgan and Alex Jones who couldn't face how little actual gun murders are happening in the UK.

U.S. gun policies are most often compared to that of the United Kingdom's. Following the massacre at Dunblane, the UK enacted a near universal gun ban in 1998. Today the majority of police officers are not allowed to carry a firearm even while on duty, and even the UK Olympic pistol team must fly to Switzerland to practice. All the same, the most recent government statistics show gun crimes in England and Wales have gone from 5,209 in 1998 to 9,865 in 2012 -- an increase of 89 per cent.
