ya, perfect reason to not even try to do anything about it.... /s

OK Shakey, if it is passed you can volunteer to collect all of those AR-15's from the survivalists in Montana and such places. Oh an if you don't know , to change the US Constitution requires a Constitutional convention which has to be attended by delegates from 38 States. Obama cannot change Gun Laws without it.He can try but he will be impeached for it.

What makes you think they deserve respect? These people are paranoid, unreasonable, unwilling to compromise, irrational and driven by fear and cowardice. They show little sign that they value human life over their ability to buy guns that they don't need. They're generally far-right delusionals relying on conspiracy theories to justify their poorly thought out arguments.

Calling them gun nuts seems mild when you consider the type of people that they are.

So how is this any different compare to how African Americans were treated back then :rolleyes: Thats how we use to see them soo its the same as these people you speak of..

Also: What makes you think they deserve respect? These people are followers, unreasonable, unwilling to compromise, irrational and driven by control and manipulation .

Gun control != no guns to civil people...

I live in Germany and it's quite easy to get a gun here legally if you a) are not totally nuts and b) care about storing your weapon in a responsible way.

in a government sanctioned holding facility. I lived there for 12.5 years and yes it is government sanctioned or controlled.

Where do criminals get guns? don't they steal them?

They buy them. Most criminals start off as ordinary citizens. Others are given to cartels by our government. Most are acquired from improper containment of the gun by a family member. Our society is not ready for it's people to have guns. But since you can't get rid of people, it's easier to get rid of guns.

    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
