"We have met the enemy, and they are us...."

No single one. 2 Cor 1:4; 1 Peter 10-11

By the way: If the licenses don't support a legal lawsuit ... well, I'm afraid of an executive power that wants to silence the media....

What are the licenses for? Where does it say in the license that the news agencies will only report truthfully? Frankly, today's news stations -- ALL OF THEM -- remind me of the one news source, "back in my day," we always used as the benchmark: The National Enquirer. Inquiring minds want to...

Ya know, Hank, if anyone's ever seen the Japanese film Battle Royale, or a Korean horror film (yes, I'm one of those types that doesn't mind sub-titles; but because I'm half-deaf, I keep the closed-captioning on for *all* programs, not just foreign ones) -- well, they might take a step back...

Starting with the newest Star Trek movies, and culminating with Discovery -- it seems to me these producers/creators are "trying to do Star Trek better than Gene Roddenberry." And not succeeding. Orville? I've watched it. It's failing because of the stupid middle-school humor, and because it...

Matt, you're being obtuse. We have communists in America; we have wiccans; and yes, we have people who believe in the principles of nazism. They are all Americans; and are represented by their congresspeople and other *elected* officials--including the vice president. That doesn't mean they're...

Um...apples and oranges? National Football League - entertainment industry paying grown men millions of dollars to play with a ball. National Socialist Party - political party in a country that encourages the freedom to vote your conscience. Should the vice president, who is supposed to be a...

Good point. Population of Great Britain: 65.64 million. Population of America: 323.1 million.

Actually, isn't the answer: "No one was killed by a gun"? They were killed by someone using a gun. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/jan/21/england-wales-homicides-rise-knife-gun-crime

As do most, if not all, of us. Pish posh. By trying to create such a point, one implies that other societies are not violent. Acknowledging that other societies are violent, too, doesn't negate your point; it merely places it in perspective for proper comparison.

Texas Tech shooter was too young to have gun under campus carry law, police say Reason I bring up this thread, in relation to the recent Las Vegas shooting: Laws are in place. Daniels violated those laws. Since they can't determine how he obtained the weapon, a ban on guns wouldn't have...

No, no you didn't. I tried to be fair; I clicked on and read through each of your links. There's nothing you've provided that supports your statement that Florida's stand-your-ground law basically only works for whites.

Your logic isn't logic, Matt. Everyone's a law-abiding citizen...until they're not. That's your logic. So, because by your logic, anyone/everyone could commit an illegal act at any time, you want to take away their ability, as much as possible, to inflict harm. Your logic requires that we take...

Fertilizer bomb. Pressure cooker bomb. It was outdoors, on the Strip, so see if I could high-speed ram a vehicle into the crowd. Shucks, in that dense a crowd, grab a knife in each hand and slash everyone I got close to. That dense a crowd, start shucking acid balls. I may not get too many...

The fact that you can't see the error in this post is amazing. You just admitted that it's the use, not the weapon, that defines legality.

Well, to be honest, our obsession with guns started 250 years ago, when the king trued ti take them away from us. As for American tyrannical governments--the second amendment hasn't been put to that test; but it seems like every time the Dems get into office.... By the way -- when are you...

Of course the number of mass shootings went down; but how many mass killings have there been by other means? I lived in England for three years; there was a report *every day* of crimes being committed with illegal guns (because, other than over/under shotguns, they're all pretty much illegal)...

His point was NOT that making it illegal isn't worthwhile; the point is that if making such things illegal hasn't stopped them, then they weren't the cause in the first place. Why haven't we banned cars? They've been used several times in the last couple of years to plow into crowds of people...

Oh, please. You're a pastor; isn't your *first* duty to speaking truth?
