Many, many trained military personnel who train for combat for years freeze up and $&!# themselves when they first come under fire. At $16 an hour to be a security guard there isn't a lot of room to be a &^@#ing hero... He was making over 100K CAD per year, that is not chump change. Also he was a 33 year veteran of Broward County law enforcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guns are so ingrained in American culture, that people are gone nuts. What do you propose for people that live in high crime areas and need guns for protection?

Hunting animals from hundreds of feet with a gun while the poor animal can't defend itself or see it coming doesn't prove anything...Go hunt it with your bare hands or even a spear at least and you would prove something. Your "hobby" and love for guns doesn't mean it serves a purpose. It serves no needed purpose. Why do I need to hunt? Cause I enjoy it, and I love the meat from it. You are really on a high horse aren’t you? I don’t hunt to prove anything. I don’t keep trophies, I don’t ever take risky shots, and I would never kill anything that I’m not going to eat. I only hunt for food that feeds me, friends and family. I have no love for guns, but guns 100% do serve a purpose, you just disagree with the legitimate purpose I gave you.

If so, how is that any better than me eating meat from something that I personally harvested, and butchered? I enjoy the hunt, but I get zero enjoyment out of the kill. But because I prefer to eat meat that I got myself rather than a cow that had a bolt put into its brain, I’m a caveman? Okay bud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay bud! you take a weapon, go outside, kill an animal that's unfortunate enough to be walking near you, skin it, cook it in enough oil/seasoning so as to give it some flavour you enjoy, then act satisfied sounds kinda cavemanish to me. but at least i get the smug satisfaction of thinking this sort of thing is really just a class/generational thing and will be dying out soon enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So because you can turn a blind eye to where your meat comes from, and how it’s killed that makes you better than me, and every other hunter out there? Get a grip, you aren’t better than anyone. Oh, and I don’t need to add a lot of seasoning to the meat I shoot, cause it tastes a lot better than the mass produced meat you can buy from a grocery store.

You can very well eat good and get meat if guns were outlawed. You don't need them at all. You act like your life would be over if guns were outlawed and that to me is mentally unstable.

You know absolutely nothing about me, so stop with the mentally unstable BS. I never said anywhere that I would act as if my life would be over if guns were outlawed. I told you that if the Canadian government ever tried banning guns that a lot of Canadians would raise hell, and they would. Me personally, I really wouldn’t care as I haven’t been hunting very long and I don’t have any memories of doing it as a kid, since I didn’t. If the Canadian government wanted to buy my guns off of me, then I would sell them. It will never happen, and until it does, I will enjoy hunting, and target shooting, and being a very responsible gun owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to him, I live in a very low crime area. In the US, most legal guns are in the hands of a minority of the population, and I would be royally p*ssed off if all guns were outlawed in my lifetime. At worst though, semi-automatics will be banned in the near (within 10 years) future. I doubt I'll live long enough to see the day where all guns in the US are outlawed.

I get the low crime area, but not everyone is lucky to live in one. County that I live in has a population of close to 1 million. Murder rate on average is less than Europe and 3 times less than Canada. What about people that live on the border where narco cartels run the show? Or inner cities across America, since 1957 Chicago has recorded 39 000 homicides. As far as guns being outlawed, that is a pipe dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone really think that having a gun will protect you from crime ? More likely someone will target your home and terrorize your family trying to steal you gun collection. If you live in a high crime area... your best safety tip would be to have the police on speed dial. I doubt having a gun in gun safe will really protect you.

Sweathog Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 In my opinion, this arming a member of the faculty plan to deter shooters would not likely work unless that faculty member had previous combat experience. Giving an untrained or inadequately trained faculty member a gun, and asking them to deal with a crazy with an assault rifle is just asking for trouble.

As far as guns being outlawed, that is a pipe dream. You're preaching to the choir. Like I've said here for years on CDC, I'm for the second amendment. I just think there needs to be tweaks to the law like keeping the mentally ill away from owning guns. I don't want semi-automatics banned but I do think that it's coming sooner or later.
