FIRST, a blog is NOT a credible source, but given the nature of my question I will accept it, kudos on avoiding answering the question yourself though ...and Im a sheep...

that blog says, states with cities of greater population than the WHOLE of vermont and maine, thereby having a much greater population of impoverished city dwellers (those most likely to commit gun crimes), have higher crime rates than vermont and maine, I honestly never would have guessed that... you people are seeking to make invalid correlations between two geographic land masses without taking any other variables into account, more people die of old age every year per capita in boston than in bumfuck maine too, but we arent trying to abolish health care

and saying that because gun registration doesnt solve ALL gun crime and therefore should be thrown out is ludicrous, thats like saying I need to install a light fixture for which I need a several tools, these wire nuts wont install the whole thing by themselves, better just throw them away... (if that metaphor is too obtuse let me know and I'll come up with another)

then they go on to use the old slippery slope fallacy, first gun registration, then knife registration, then gun and knife BANS, THIS IS MERICA, I GOTS ME A GUN AND COLD FINGERS AND YOU ARENT MY HUE, FUCKING LEARN THE LANGUAGE, GOD ISNT A CHOICE, DRINK BEER...

this is ludicrous too, all politicians love the slippery slope fallacy, but its flawed logic, if it worked than people in Massachusetts would be trying to marry goats by now

I am not anti-gun (nor am I liberal), most of my best friends own guns, if they need to pay a little extra for that right (much like the whole freedom isnt free thing that you people have such a hardon for...) then they should do it and quit whining (none of them do), and PLEASE tell me that if your gun was stolen and then retrieved and returned by police who knew it was registered to you you wouldn't be jerking off at that legislation

why is it a crock of bullshit for you to be questioned by the police in a murder investigation? are you pro murder? what do you have to hide? if you havent murdered anyone you aren't likely to be considered as a suspect, what if you match the description of the murderer, you'll be questioned, is it a crock of bullshit because you're white and he's white? should all murderers automatically be assumed to be taller or shorter than you? maybe just a different color so you will never have to be inconvenienced by our police force...

it's Nazi to BAN guns, no one has done that here and only douchey idiots advocate it, it would never fly and you and I both know it, so dont bother bitching about it or making false correlations
