I propose strict fuel tank limits.

We need to outlaw high-capacity fuel tanks. NOW!

We actually just had a high speed chase that ended peacefully after 10 minutes when the teenage dickhead in the Nissan Skyline ... ran out of fuel.

We simply must have armed guards in every car.

We simply must have car-proof guards on the roofs of all skyscrapers.

Why would anyone need to go more than ten miles?

Only to kill someone. Only to kill someone.

What's your proposal to reduce mass shootings?

It sounds as though your perspective is "since people's deaths result from cars and water, we just have to accept mass shootings".

footfootfoot · 01-18-2013, 08:50 AM

No. My perspective is to be a smartass every chance I get. Please don't be sincere with me.

I really don't see gun control as limiting mass shootings. There is no "Sound bite" way to address what is essentially a cultural problem.

Since this thread is clearly no place for even semi-serious debate...

Guns don't kill people, people kill people.

So why do they always give guns to people when they go off to war? Why not just send the people, and save money on the guns?

sexobon · 01-19-2013, 12:46 AM

Conversely, if guns kill people, why not just send the guns and let the people stay to enjoy other pursuits?

I have solved the mass shooting problems. We can limit the gathering of people to no more than 10 at any location to include schools, churches, malls, .etc

I think I deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for this

Drones, sir. Then armed autonomous drones. Until they turn against us. Then it will turn out that guns don't kill people, and people don't kill people, giant laser-wielding rocket-shooting transforming battlebots kill people.

Brilliant, but the penalty for exceeding the 10-person limit will have to be very very severe for the proposal to work. The only option is summary execution by firing squad. Fortunately, this will keep employed all the gun and ammunition manufacturers who would otherwise end up unemployed, causing them to go on gun rampages ...

Of course, it's so simple a child could see it, suicidal programmers kill people.

ZenGum · 01-19-2013, 01:58 AM

I guess that proves programmers aren't people, then, doesn't it?

DanaC · 01-19-2013, 04:21 AM

Programmers arent people, they're corporations, silly.

ZenGum · 01-19-2013, 05:43 AM

Thus proving that corporations aren't people!

Holy shit, we did it.

DanaC · 01-19-2013, 05:47 AM

Whoomph! We did at that :P

Trilby · 01-19-2013, 07:45 AM

of course it's people who kill people.

Now let's talk about the 560 billion (or is it trillion?) we've spent "rebuilding" the shithole that is, and will remain, Afghanistan. Wouldn't that be better spent on the crazies here?

just a random thought.
