The background checks are fine, it's everything before that , that is screwed. Dude should have been committed long before.
You should probably clarify... you are not talking about "Dude653"....... are you?

The Reality of "Gun Control" in the US
There is none!

Your politicians are complicit in your murder rate toll because they're in the NRA's pocket!

It would be wise to know your facts before you made a sweeping generalized statement. The cities where gun control laws are the harshest are the cites with the highest murder rates.

The places where citizens can defend themselves from violent criminals are the places that have the lower murder rates.

The question we really need to be addressing is,

Whether it be by gun, knife, bomb, truck, or any other means - why are we as a people so intent on killing each other?

This country was founded as "One nation under God," but not so much any more: Now, it's one nation under many gods. On Easter, I had Christians from Russia at the door. This Sunday, it was JWs.

Let's not forget the weak and unprincipled politicians of Western Europe who have all betrayed their countries and brought in murderous Jihadists to attack innocents. Not only that, but they have provided arms, ammunition, and technology to terrorists worldwide so that they can do their murderous deeds while the politicians look on.

The statistics show that wherever there is strict gun control anywhere in the world, the ordinary citizens pay the price while the criminals are free to do their evil deeds.

And this is a basic principle that the founders of this nation fully understood... which is one of the primary reasons for the 2nd Amendment. An armed populace will always be free. as long as they wish to be.

My county has about 80 cemeteries. I just Wikipedia Harris county Ga. It has 3 times as much land as mine, and about 130% more population, so it's very possible.

I'm not from Georgia, but where I'm from, many families have a family cemetery. I'm pretty sure this means there are more than 356 cemeteries in the county.

I just read where London has over taken New York in the number of murders.
That gun control works really well in London.

Cries of "One gun death is too many"! "Think of our children"! Now, using children as the mouthpiece for the left's agenda. This is not about "Gun Control". Its about population control. Having children promote the message of gun control is not new. In 1933, The Hitler Youth paraded the streets pushing the gun control agenda of the Nazi Party. In 1966, teens and young adults paraded the streets in China, waving the Little Red Book, and pleading with the populous to disarm. This trick is as old as Communism. Yes they want the guns, but only because they want the power.

The entire idea of which America is founded on is the ability for the people to keep from being suppressed by an oppressive government.

Violating the Second Amendment is a violation of that idea.

I think it is the music these youngsters are filling their heads with. Most Rap and some Hip Hop have cursing, dissing, hitting, shooting and cop hating pumping into their brains. Like pornography, there are demons attached to this music. The devil knows he has but a short time, and he is working extra hard perverting our youth.

How does any town have room for 356 cemeteries?? :confused:
I want to know who did the counting. I just tried to find how many cemeteries in my county and couldn't. Kind of a famous county/city too -- Philadelphia.

How many in your county? lol
