TheLegendOfMart is known for saying that he supports limited rights for guns and the going on to say that people, such as the criminal in this case, shouldn't have been allowed to own a gun. The laws required to have prevented this guy from owning a gun would mean nobody is legally allowed to own a gun which goes against what even the law in England allows for as well as what TheLegendOfMart claims he supports. TheLegendOfMart contradicts himself with his own arguments.

Funny how you think you know me, I have said SEVERAL times that I would prefer if all guns were banned, I do support highly restricted access to them in the first option isn't feasible, we have special cases for people that NEED them such as pest control, army, etc.. self defence isn't a valid reason to own a gun in a place where 99% of people don't have access to one.

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand.

Um, are you serious? The motto of police everywhere in this country is "To serve and protect". What "laws" are you referencing?

United State Supreme Court ruled that the police's job is not to protect any individual. No American has the right to police protection in any circumstance. This is what the Supreme Court had to say about it: "You, and only you, are responsible for your security and the security of your family and loved ones."

That's non-sense.

Non sense you say. So then explain to me how the Police stopped this shooting, Columbine, The one in Connecticut, The one at the theater or any other murder? I, as am ex police office can stand by this statement. If Police prevented crime, then there would be no need for prisons. Police respond after a crime is permitted. Sure a beat cop may prevent some shoplifting or some other minor offense but Murder-No way.

100% of Americans have access to guns, even if you ban them. 100% of Europeans have access to weapons, even with the bans. Fact of reality. Just because you ignore that you can make a gun very easily doesn't make it true. Just because you say it over and over doesn't make it true. Use facts when debating on the internet. Makes you look less ignorant.

Seems like the guy was messed up a little. And the people who got shot....well, sucks but why the hell would they let a dog **** and **** on the balcony? That is gross and really not a good environment for the kids....let alone the dog which obviously wasnt properly taken care of.

Why when I lived in apartments I never addressed issues with my neighbor myself. Thats what the management staff is for. I had one guy upstairs from me knock on my door once at 2am (I banged on the ceiling since they were making a lot of noise) I didnt open the door since I didnt know the guy and it was 2am.

Out of curiosity, do you have a link to that?

thanks. So the cops do not have a constitutional obligation to protect. But really if their motto is to serve and protect, they should either do what it says or change the motto. But the way these people were killed...calling the cops wouldnt of helped. The cops wouldnt of gotten there in time.

I had similar issue with one guy who used to walk his dogs by my house and let them **** on my lawn w/o removing it. When I confronted him, he always said it wasn't his dogs. So one morning I put pepper powder around my front lawn, and watched the show ahahah :) ... Didn't see him doing that anymore. Now he walks his dogs on the other side of my house.

We have a nut job living next store that lets his dogs run wild and poop all over everyone's yard. He has been told next time it will be by the Police.

^ The guy should have used some sense, and shot the dog.

Better yet, shot the poop :rofl:

Seriously tho, for as cruel as this may sound, more would've been accomplished if he had simply shot the animal

then show records for his ongoing ordeal and defend himself, than to justify murder

Makes me laugh how you always have some ridiculous answer to everything and you say it like you have won the argument, I can probably count on one hand the percentage of people who actually know and have the skills to make a gun. It doesn't change the FACT that gun control DOES work, Americans are too selfish to put it into practice.

Same problem but in a college town thats a bit of the norm. My management staff dealt with it. However, seems that in this case they didn't do their job.

Police WILL protect you, but they are a finite resource. They can't be everywhere at once. It's up to you to truly protect yourself and your assets.

When I first read the title, I thought thats what he did and I was appalled, until I found out he just shot some people.

Still ignoring history are we? Every single time there was bans in the US, violent crimes involving guns shot up against national averages which continue to fall. Nice try. Don't let the facts hit you on the way out...actually...do. Maybe then you will come here with truth and not lies.

You limit guns or try to control them, like anything else, people will want it that much more and will find a way to get it. Just like the drug war on the Mexico boarder.

Take your America bashing to some other place.

If 11,000 gun homicides a year is working, I'd hate to see what not working is.

Pro-gunners bash the UK just because we dare to speak up against the almighty home of the brave, land of the free, OH SAY CAN YOU SEEEEEEEEEEEEEE........

The police cannot possibility be everywhere. This is not a police state.

If 11,000 gun homicides a year is working, I'd hate to see what not working is.

So you are saying you want more gun homicides and to you that increase in gun homicides is justified because at least then law abiding citizens don't have guns? That makes sense in... well.. nowhere. Stop drinking the cool-aid.

Show me some UK bashing threads? Preferable try to stay on topic.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
