Gun Control

[Frizzle Fry]

I sincerely hope, for your sake and the sake of those whose life you might end up effecting, that someday you will find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time or on the receiving end of a false accusation that results in your rights being ignored or unjustly stripped. Maybe then you will gain a little perspective.

Anybody who doesn't have the common sense to stay out of fights or drive drunk has no business owning a gun.

So...a fellow here in Denver got into a fight with 4 people on the street...and now should not be allowed to own a firearm? Is this your determination?

So... no answer here?

Depends on the case.
Was he arrested?
Did he start the fight?

It's impossible to make a judgement, because you've provided no link to provide more information.

How long is a piece of string?

Heres a perfect example of a moron with a gun, who will most likely get off.
Should he be allowed to own a gun? Hell no.

And what happens if the FB player is ACTUALLY INNOCENT of the charges? Just because someone with a typewriter says this is the way things went down doesn't always make things fact.

We have seen first hand the lies of the media.

NO NO NO...your direct statement was:

Nothing in there about innocent, nothing about who started it. So arrest doesn't matter. Who started it doesn't matter. They should have the common sense to stay out of a fight. PERIOD.

As to this case...he got done eating at a resturaunt and was walking to his car to drive home and was jumped and attacked by 4 people he had never seen before. One pulled a knife and slit his belly wide open. His intestines actually spilled out on the streets. The police found that he hadn't been robbed, hadn't gotten into a previous fight with the others...that they did it just cause they could. But YOU feel that because he "didn't have the common sense to stay out of fights" that he shouldn't be allowed to own firearms.



Ya know...I have a music artist that I like. One of his lines talks about someone who is "so open minded that his brains leaked out". I am guessing he has met you.

The only answer you will accept on this is the one YOU are looking for. Doesn't matter what the facts are.

[wetwrks]

Do you think known and convicted criminals should legally be allowed to own guns?
A simple yes or no question.

You ever gotten a speeding ticket? Parking ticket? Ticket for a moving violation? Ticketed for anything? Fined for anything? Jaywalking?
A simple yes or no question.

[Henchman]

Never been arrested.

Your reading comprehension skills are severely lacking.

Its interesting to see which side the name calling and insults are coming from.

Don't get arrested. Stay out of trouble. Get your record expunged if t is such a minor thing.
Smart thing to do anyway, since employers will see it when they do a background check.

Traffic violations?
Any DUI's?

Actually you have TOTALLY missed my point.

I was not convicted of a felony it was a misdemeanor. Also in the situation I was attacked with no provocation on my part i was putting on gym shorts in a locker room and was sucker punched.

Traffic violations: Not examples but actual violations, several speeding tickets (5 total, 3 for 7-10 over the limit, and 2 for 15 over, and one ticket for having a tail light out ) so there is no misunderstanding.

But getting me record expunged. Well why is it that my record that is SEALED (by FEDERAL LAW BTW) is being used by the state? Am i getting my record expunged yes.

I was given my license by the state fully approved. Then I go to remain legal only to have them take it from me. After they decide to violate FEDERAL law and then punish me for it.

So yes you have missed the point.

Should known criminals who happen to have good lawyers that prevent then from being prosecuted after getting arrested time and time again, be allowed the luxury of legaly owning a gun?

Actually the answer to your question here on a legal basis is ..... YES.
They have never been convicted of a crime thus they ARE NOT CRIMINALS. No matter what they are suspected of they are still not criminals. Arrest records are not criminal records, only convictions count. Remember innocent UNTIL proven guilty.

[wetwrks]

Never been arrested.

That was NOT the question.

As you said...it is a simple yes or no question.

And while at it...lets add in have you ever paid a fine for damaged school books, late library fines?

This idiot reminds me of CGI Starbase, that guy who trolled around here after Shatnerball and ended up getting banned. His anti-alcohol rants were legendary.
