Yeah, nah. None of that will ever happen. Never ever ever. It's just some propoganda get get you guys all riled up. It works pretty well too.

Maybe, but the way gun control advocates advocate for Australia style gun control (which resulted in more guns in circulation than before their ban), it definitely creates that possibility.

Also, I’m hoping “it will never ever happen” is hyperbole. Voluntary gun buy backs have already been tried at the local level.

Policy solution: all guns registered.  If not reported stolen and a crime committed with your gun, you are partially liable.  Gun owners must carry insurance against their gun causing harm.

I'm sure we are not the first to think of this, but this has been rolling around in my head as well. If your gun is used in a violent crime you will be charged with a crime. If your kids grab your AK from under the couch and kills someone, you will be charged too (x degree Murder). If it is stolen, you don't report it and it is used in a violent crime, you will be charged. If you want to have guns. Great. Lock your shit up. Don't let anyone have access to them. Or spend time in pound town.

Seems pretty simple.

I'm wondering why, amidst all these wonderful ideas to further regulate guns, that would have a questionable impact on future criminal gun use, I hear little or nothing about how the EXISTING laws were overlooked/not enforced, despite multiple neon red flags concerning the kid in Florida, that, if heeded, would have totally prevented that tragedy.
Seems fixing what's already in place would be the more  immediate and productive way to start.
....and shit canning that clown of a sheriff in Broward County would seem to be a good start.

I would use it as an example of the long game being the priority for gun control advocates. I believe stopping gun violence is just the vehicle used by them to get what they really want.

If you look at one of Dwags' previous responses to my post... my post being something approximately along the lines of "I'm not making the argument gun violence has plummeted because the amount of guns in circulation has sky rocketed in the past 30 years... just that it doesn't matter how many guns there are." He stated "good, so let's get rid of some."
Most gun control advocates reveal their true colors after enough questions. They don't like guns and not owning any isn't good enough. They don't want anyone else to own them, either. But, while that opinion becoming trendier, it's still not quite there to being politically feasible yet.

Honestly? If you remove police who very often prove not to be a good guy it’s probably not as large a disparity as you think.

You think the disparity between bad guys with guns being stopped by good guys with guns and bad guys with guns being stopped by good guys without guns isn't as large as I think?

What do you think I believe the disparity is?

I can't let that statement go unchallenged. There are millions of police interactions every year, we hear only about a very small number of those that are questionable.
It would be like saying air travel is unsafe because on the rare occaision there's a problem, it's huge news.

Something smells fishy, like old red herring. Wink
That's not the issue I'm responding to, Roc said 'very often' police are the bad guy, which is not the case.
When, on the rare occasions they break the law, by all means throw the book at them. Don't try to paint me as defending criminals, with or without a badge.

I didn't define very often.  And I said not the good guy, not "the bad guy". And not being the good guy isn't limited to shootings.

No one throws any book at them. That’s the unaccountable part I mentioned. They say it’s okay because they were scared of the man with the cell phone (insert whichever excuse for murder they used.)

I have a ton of friends with a shit ton of guns.  Respectful of them.  I'd say 90% of those guys think assault shit is so out of line.   But they won't get on line and bitch about it either way.  I don't know, they're just kind of quiet/cool.  One of my friends gives me shit cause I buy meat.  Thing is, those guys are so good with guns, and so safe about them, and so respectful of them.  I just find the guys who scream about the second amendment and bitch about h.s. kids and think they need to have assault weapons if they want them, well, to be kind of pussy.   I don't know, they seem like spastic pussies.  I know that's my problem not theirs.  I have to get over it.  

Whatever.  H.S. kids seem to be kicking the NRA's ass.  Good for them.

Alright, Travis. I'll share them with you. I didn't mean to be rude I'm just very particular of who I give this sort of thing out to.

Priorities for Research to Reduce the Threat of Firearm Related Violence: Defensive Uses of Guns

National Academies of Science Engineering Medicine wrote:Defensive use of guns by crime victims is a common occurrence, although the exact number remains disputed (Cook and Ludwig, 1996; Kleck, 2001a). Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million (Kleck, 2001a), in the context of about 300,000 violent crimes involving firearms in 2008 (BJS, 2010). On the other hand, some scholars point to a radically lower estimate of only 108,000 annual defensive uses based on the National Crime Victimization Survey (Cook et al., 1997). The variation in these numbers remains a controversy in the field. The estimate of 3 million defensive uses per year is based on an extrapolation from a small number of responses taken from more than 19 national surveys. The former estimate of 108,000 is difficult to interpret because respondents were not asked specifically about defensive gun use.

A different issue is whether defensive uses of guns, however numerous or rare they may be, are effective in preventing injury to the gun-wielding crime victim. Studies that directly assessed the effect of actual defensive uses of guns (i.e., incidents in which a gun was “used” by the crime victim in the sense of attacking or threatening an offender) have found consistently lower injury rates among gun-using crime victims compared with victims who used other self-protective strategies (Kleck, 1988; Kleck and DeLone, 1993; Southwick, 2000; Tark and Kleck, 2004). Effectiveness of defensive tactics, however, is likely to vary across types of victims, types of offenders, and circumstances of the crime, so further research is needed both to explore these contingencies and to confirm or discount earlier findings.

Even when defensive use of guns is effective in averting death or injury for the gun user in cases of crime, it is still possible that keeping a gun in the home or carrying a gun in public—concealed or open carry—may have a different net effect on the rate of injury. For example, if gun ownership raises the risk of suicide, homicide, or the use of weapons by those who invade the homes of gun owners, this could cancel or outweigh the beneficial effects of defensive gun use (Kellermann et al., 1992, 1993, 1995). Although some early studies were published that relate to this issue, they were not conclusive, and this is a sufficiently important question that it merits additional, careful exploration.

Counter point- 

Doesn’t anyone else look at the fuckin sources or is that just me? Gary Kleck? That’s what you brought here? For fucks sake. Didn’t we all go to MSU or no? You know there’s a reason all those professors made you provided sources for your shit.

Anyway here’s a link about how that three million number is extremely ludicrous. Enjoy your reading, don’t care about your reply.
