QUICK! Lets pass a Reichstag Law!!! |

Reading Cicero's twisted logic, you can understand why he hates compulsory education. If he didn't learn anything... he doesn't want anyone to learn anything.
Twisted logic? You said all weapons aren't equal. You don't think it would be best if everybody could protect themselves from violent people if they only had access to an equal weapon? |

It's the entire argument that is flawed. I and many others would be very capable of 'defending myself with an AR15. Many Americans would not. So everyone having the same weapon would not create your illusion of 'equal weapons. If a dozen of us were threatened with one person with a chemical weapon... it's likely our weapons would be useless... if our opponent had only a chemical weapon and a gas mask. An expert with a bow and arrow could take out 5 or 6 people with machine guns if that 5 or 6 didn't know how to use a machine gun. YES TWISTED LOGIC. As if every American having access to all weapons would some how create some kind of "weapon equality" and we'd all be safer. |

Sure it would. Not flawed at all. It's actually very progressive and supports equality. One class of people shouldn't have greater access to weapons than others. I believe in equal access to equal weapons, not equal skills with the weapon. You're a public education guy, give everybody equal access to training on the AR15 in gubmint skoolz. |

Or eliminate the weapon... also equal access. |

For EVERYBODY, including gubmint agents? Or do you still believe there is a special class of Americans that are exempt? |

Before Henry jumps on the Military yet again, don't forget that most of the crazies are not let into the military or if they do manage to get in, there is a good chance that they will be rejected once in the military. As to military training... Most of those who went to Vietnam never fired their weapons. There were 8-10 in the rear with the gear, for every actual infantry man who engaged the enemy. Do you consider those who were "well trained by the military" to pump gas, or clerks who worked in an office to be "deadlier" than a civilian who did the same job?
As stated already they were trained to kill, it doesn't matter what job they take after boot camp, he didn't need to see action when the art of death was already engraved into his head. |

they don't have to be 'good' at firing the weapon....they just need their brain to tell their muscles to do it.... do you consider a bow hunter who is good at gutting a deer deadlier than mommy in the kitchen with a steak knife... the military HAVE FU(KING GUN CONTROL LAWS...... the police HAVE FU(KING GUN CONTROL LAWS....... you can grow your brain to accept shooting as a norm by playing any first player shooter games and be 'good'....

Follow Cissy's silly logic further... "Why Should the Cops Have All the Fun Speeding... I WANT FLASHING RED LIGHTS AND A SIREN TOO!"OR "WHY SHOULD ONLY COPS PUT THEIR LIVES IN DANGER ANSWERING DANGEROUS CALLS... WHY SHOULDN'T ALL CITIZENS BE FORCED TO DO THAT DANGEROUS WORK." (Equal opportunity)Cissy's point of view is so ridiculous it doesn't even warrant a reply! |

You false analogy logic is incorrect. I didn't say anything about speeding and sirens. Cops aren't forced to do dangerous work, they choose to do it and get paid. You suggest citizens be forced to restrict their weapon options while a select group of citizens have access to more powerful weapons. I do not suggest restricting weapons for government agents, but giving them the same access as the rest of the citizens. You still never answered why one class of citizen gets access to more powerful weapon than other citizens? Why does one group need more powerful weapons? |
