Hey, just because I consider myself a democrat doesn’t mean I just blindly believe in whatever they do, I have my own opinions too.
I believe in the right to own a weapon, and i think you should be able to defend yourself for the most part.
I’m Pro-choice and i believe in the death penalty.
And I don’t care if you’re offended by my use of free speech, that’s why it’s called free speech. I care when an asshole in the movie theatre uses their free speech to scream “Fire” and people are trampled to death trying to get out in a panic.
the one about freedom of speech & not caring if anyone is offended….is wat their doing rite now.
so since there is freedom of speech : I voted repulican because im a hypocrite !
I believe in the right to own a weapon, and i think you should be able to defend yourself for the most part.
so Toby, how come in countries like canada, they don’t have guns and there aren’t nearly as many deaths on average per year than the states, no other country has anywhere near them
STATS
Australia 65 shooting deaths per year, England just over 300, United States over 11,000
that’s from bowling for columbine, plus in Canada they are the United States’ neighbor, and they only have a little bit more than 100 killings every year
If you say that it’s only because Canada is soo much smaller, let’s do some grade 8 math…Ratios
America 305,000,000: Canada 33,000,000
that’s 9.24
9.24 times let’s say about 120(Canada’s shootings)
1109…that’s about 1/10 of America’s shootings
So is the gun law really that good?
I’m Pro-choice and i believe in the death penalty.
Another thing
If they are not alive, why are they breathing? if they are not human beings, what kind of beings are they? Since they are human beings, why is it legfal to kill them?
and you say death penalty, sur eyou treat others as theyd want to be treated, but two wrongs do not make a right
And death with the babies, what did they do to deserve death, did you know when the iem that goes in is in there, they sense the danger and they run away from it,
by the way, how would you have those views if your parents chose otherwise
by the way again, im fifteen and yuove just been told
i gotta say the death penalty is dumb because after waiting all that time they want to die anyway. not much of a punishment
i also hate the world and this country so whoever dissagrees can go die.
I agree with John here. Democrats talk with their feet in their mouths and their heads in their butts.
protecting oneself from criminalality is a no brainer….dc outlawed most ownership in the 1970′s…..and became murder capital of the planet repeatedly over a fifteen year period…..
crime control is not the objective of the dems….control of “we the people” is
I read some of comparisons to Canada about owing guns. First off, This is America, not Canada.
Second, its our Right, as in Constitutional Right to own and posses a gun, for protection, or for hobby.
Third, Canada’s crime rate is obscene, gang violence, drugs, shootings. We also know that most shootings in America are inner city, gangs, robberies,drugs. If they don’t have guns, they will use knives.
We also know people in Canada own guns just like we do.
If we do away with one right, then we must also take your other ones away too. Including hate laws, abortion protection, and any civil laws that have been added to the Constitution.
Guns and ownership of guns are what makes America unique, independent, and Free!
You can scream all day about guns, they will always be here.
I do not own a gun, never have, but I respect the Constitution, all of it!
the constitution was made back in th late 1700s, so the right to own gun, i dont think they had ak 47s and needed glocks and sawed off shotgun, they had the little flintlock guns wen it was shoot, new ammo and they were crude devices, unlike the ones we have today
in england when you get a gun lisence, you have to wait two years until you can get one, and they’re bb guns, lol, airsoft
john! ur smart!
ok republicans rock! wow you go john!
The death penalty is a short way out for fugitive they deserve to serve.
lol, my names daniel, not john, lol, but im signed in as john all the time, lol
but nayways mr jones, even if you look at all the shootings, stabbings, crime rate in general, the usa has the highest of all countries, even if everyone had the same amount of people in our country
its mostly stabbings, drugs, and all those things in canada, but not nearly as much as in the states
u say we are america not canada, well guess what, i wasnt talking aoubt being canadians, i wa stalkiing about being like canada
being something, and beiong like sopmething are totally different, its like saying tht lightning and a lightning bug are the same
if the usa was more like canada(the peacekeeping nation), there would be nothign like wats goinon now
everyione thinks tht owning guns is a right, but its actually a privilege, if you want to bear arms, get flintlock pistols, or some musket or the actual weapons they had in 1776
John you are on idiot. The second amendment states that it is the right of the people to bear arms. Owning guns is not a privilege, it is a RIGHT.
John, Daniel, or whatever you’re name is don’t be foolish. What difference should it make, the type of gun. The basic principle of it is that a person must have means to protect themselves from oppresive forces (i.e. criminals, tyrants, ect.).
I don’t advocate everyone having military grade weaponry around for the off chance that it would be needed, but if the person is acting as no threat to anyone, why should he be subject to loosing the ability to decide what is the most adequate form of protection against those who would show no regard for the law.
By the way, I’m a democrat and you’ve just been told.
well if you want to live in a country and vote for the party where you can have an ak-103 or ak 74-U
be my guest
you said that there are people who show no regard for the law
those guns can act as placebos
placebos for power
people who have guns believe they have more power than another person
the first ammendment is
1.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
so you wouldnt really need guns if everyone follwed the first ammendment
why follow the other ones, why bear arms?
you wouldn’t need protection, you wouldn’t need to bear arms if everyone just acted towards one anothe rin the spirit of brotherhood
lol democrats are STUPID!!
The only reason the Founding Fathers included the second amendment was so that the militias could get guns and so that the people could protect themselves from the English. And everybody saying that they need guns to protect themselves should shut up; If the criminals had didn’t have guns, this wouldn’t be a problem. And if the eighth amendment says that cruel and unusual shall not be inflicted, why do we still have the death penalty? Oh, and when you abort an “unborn baby” you call it murder, but when it’s an “unborn chicken” you call it an omelet. If gay marriage laws are passed in the name of the bible, aren’t we putting church and state together? And don’t diss Canada. Sure their history is kinda lame but at least a desperate sick person can get treated or even a life saving operation without having to pay thousands of dollars.
An omlette is an unfertilzed egg. And in Canada you are put on a wait list. we have free hostpitals all over the country for sick people without insurance or money. So I don’t want to hear any whinning about how we have crappy healthcare… we have FREEEEEEE hospitals there are two in Dallas, Texas alone. so shut up
Hey “JJ” and “John” if you think canada is so great go move there….
When it really comes down to it, there are no demos and republicans. Only Liberals and Conservatives….
“The only reason the Founding Fathers included the second amendment was so that the militias could get guns and so that the people could protect themselves from the English.

First off, I have never once posted on here, but I figure this needs to be said. JJ, you’re a moron. What part of the word “criminal” do you not understand? They’re thieves, weapons dealers, militia leaders, etc. Not to mention, most don’t know remorse. They kill because they want to. They kill for the adrenaline rush and the high. Guns or no guns, murderers will be murderers. Do you really think just because we’re not allowed to have guns that they’re not going to get their hands on guns? Just saying…
Well mabey we should let some of these people go and run their own country and as soon as they pass laws saying no one can have guns and then the only people with guns are criminals then they are overthrown, imprisoned, and shot by a firing squad they dont need to come whining to us. im not a liberal or a conservative so i can honestly say i don’t agree with everything the government does however u must understand not one of the parties is doing anything for the people they are only doing what will keep them in power and “no” that does not mean making the people happy because without tolerance there can be no happyness in the public and the public will never be tolerant.
Republicans are fail.
Period
You guys are all fools. Get your facts straight before posting. Good thing teenagers don’t make decisions for this country.
Wait… These are jokes?
Interesting comments.It amazes me how little the public knows about each parties agendas.I was blind at one time and actualy thouhgt I was a democrat.Later I realized all these things the auther of this site says are true.And yes it is a constitutional right for all citizens to bear arms.It would also be foolish to think banning guns would make us safer.We can’t even keep drugs or illegals out of the country.Crime actualy increased in Canada and England when they outlawed guns.
I love how political parties have become nothing more than sports teams with people just cheering on a side and conforming with that side, instead everyone should care about what and not who and form opinions on there own. Politicians for the most part are all douchebags and south park somes it up perfectly in the episode with a giant douche and a tard sandwich
