Guns should be re-tooled.
   
Guns should not be instruments of death. Gun should be neutralizers.

Flame Bait !

9. fit each gun with someone who knows what they are doing and are legal to own one
   
according to statistics. The grab a gun crowd are nuts if they believe that people are going to give up their rights when it comes to guns.

Cool, now the home invader can ventilate my skull, while I am busy punching the pin code into the trigger lock.

26. seems like a good idea, but i want my wife to be able to use any weapon i own anytime
   
it would mean both of us having to wear rings that im sure the bad guys could defeat anyway. i have found the best way to secure your weapon is to always carry it on you,

You must be a lousy Freeper Troll !

30. What about the guns that criminals already possess?
   
Just curious, does your fantasy include them marrily dropping their guns off at the local Police station?

Anyway, run your idea by the Military and get back to us, and and while you're at it, ask your local LEO. Hopefully he won't summon the men in the white coats to cart you off.

You forget that in the Magic Pony Kingdom criminals will hand back their weapons as they don't want to be seen as lawbreakers.  :lmao:

Rubber bullets are widely availible and already in use.  As for the "neutralizing agent", isn't that the whole point of a lead bullet?  :hammer:

I suppose it should shoot out happy feelings and magic pixie dust.

Ideally, one wave of the Magic Pony Wandâ„¢ would vanquish any opponent.

Rubber bullets....hmmmm....When they make a gun that'll throw a 4,000 pound earthmover tire at 2,800 fps, I'll be down for that.

'Rubber bullet' guns are like tear-gas greande launchers or attachments for other guns like those golf-ball shooters you can attach to an AR or other rifle.  The projos aren't exactly earth-mover tires, but they are pretty doggone sizable.

Poll question: Do you support cops using tasers as a means to subdue people?
 Edited on Wed Mar-11-09 06:30 AM by cboy4
I ask because this a television news sweeps month (it's usually in February, but was moved to March because of the anticipated switchover from analog to digital) -- and one of the favorite, and most mocked ratings stunts is for a reporter or anchor to be tased on camera to draw ratings.

...


Poll result (25 votes) 
OPPOSED. Seem dangerous & too many cops over do it  (16 votes, 64%) Vote
SUPPORT. Better than police batons and other means of force  (5 votes, 20%) Vote
Mixed feelings. Sometimes they're necessary. But I don't know  (4 votes, 16%) Vote
Other  (0 votes, 0%)

Are they even cognizant of what goes on beyond whatever thread they're raging in at the moment? They want safer alternatives but the "safer" alternaive is too dangerous even for the trained cops so we're left to wonder what Average Joe can use to defend himself.

Of course if tasers are too lethal what then are we to make of an officer's side arm?

I also like the phrasing "seem dangerous". I bet that never kept them from sniffing glue or dropping 'cid.

The Navy has a few of those, but you need a destroyer to carry it....

Definitely redefines "street sweeper"....
