THE NYCEO 17 hours ago I continue to say this and I will never stop saying it. GUNS are the problem here. Yes, throwing leaves and eggs on someone's car is vandalism BUT if guns weren't involved here then this situation likely ends with everyone being alive. GUNS are the reason a retired policman murders a man who was texting in a theater. GUNS are the reason why Jordan Davis was murdered by Michael Dunn because he was in a car playing loud rap music. GUNS are the reason why a neighborhood watchmen in Florida had the courage to go chasing behind a stranger at night in a gated community and murders him. So yes, kids vandalizing a car is wrong but whatever happened to just calling the police and letting them handle it? GUNS, that's what happened.
Cobra 16 hours ago I will continue to say this and I will never stop saying it . . . guns are "NOT" the problem here. Your post makes it sound like this "GUN" just got up on its own, went outside and started blasting away.
Got news for you. The irresponsible person BEHIND that gun is responsible for what he did with that object! Just like the irresponsible people who get drunk and kill far more people with their vehicles than are killed with firearms, should be blamed for those deaths. Those CARS didn't just drive off by themselves drunk and run over people. The irresponsible people behind those wheels did that.
We need to focus on what is REALLY behind the problem . . . irresponsible PEOPLE in our society are the problem. Autos, knives, guns, etc. are the items used by KILLERS. Stop demonizing the objects and start demonizing the monsters behind them!
THE NYCEO 16 hours ago You don't have the intellect to understand this so let's just agree to disagree. Every time I post on this subject there is always at least one person like you who seems offended by it. So be it. One day you will up and see the larger issue here.
Older Wiser 15 hours ago Intellect? This man's life has been destroyed. He is being charged with a Terrorist Act? What about these 5 feral youths who were terrorizing him? It was 1AM and these people were out terrorizing their community and destroying property. So you even have a clue what the acid in a raw egg does to the paint on a car?
Markus Csak 14 hours ago Wow, aren't you a piece of work! Resorting to name calling because someone doesn't agree with your view? You are no more superior than Cobra, just because you feel you have a valid point. Debates are good, but not when it is reduced to 3rd grade name calling.
SuperWitty Smitty 15 hours ago When irresponsible people have access to a loaded gun: that's a BIG problem. No gun + no killing. When irresponsible drinkers want to drive, we stop them, because the car is what will kill. Same logic: the angry person gets a gun, the gun does the killing. Regulate guns (similar to how we regulate cars) and we will have fewer shootings. 2nd amendment my eye.
