| Smarkil 02/17/18 12:38:12 AM #26 | https://www.politico.com/story/2018/02/16/florida-shooting-white-nationalists-415672 Following misrepresentations by a white nationalist leader and coordinated efforts by internet trolls, numerous researchers and media outlets spread a seemingly false claim that the man charged with killing more than a dozen people at a Florida high school belonged to an extremist group. Law enforcement agencies say they have no evidence so far to support this claim, and the rumor appears to have been perpetrated by white nationalist trolls themselves. The ADL traced its original tip to posts on 4chan, where researchers found self-described ROF members claiming that Cruz was a brother-in-arms. But many of those posts seem to have been written specifically to deceive reporters and researchers. --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |

| Smarkil 02/15/18 8:43:47 PM #363 | darkknight109 posted... A bunch of stuff You don't need to pass an exam to buy a gun. You need to fill out a permit and wait 1-2 weeks. Not unlike the three day waiting period in the US. The permit is only needed to buy the gun and to buy ammo. This is what needs to be renewed. Private sales are definitely not treat the same as sales from a store. Sales from a store require the Swiss equivalent of a background check while private sales only require notification of transfer of ownership be sent to one of their local political offices. Furthermore, not all guns are required to be held to that standard. Transporting a weapon in the US also has the same standard in most states barring personal carry. For instance in California... Pursuant to California Penal Code section 25610, a United States citizen over 18 years of age who is not prohibited from firearm possession, and who resides or is temporarily in California, may transport by motor vehicle any handgun provided it is unloaded and locked in the vehicles trunk or in a locked container. Furthermore, the handgun must be carried directly to or from any motor vehicle for any lawful purpose and, while being carried must be contained within a locked container. IIRC, every state in the country requires a gun to be unloaded in your vehicle. The only exception to that is when you are carrying it for the purposes of personal defense which, you guessed it, requires a concealed firearm permit in all but I think...eight states. A concealed firearm permit (which I have) requires taking a 4-5 hour class (in Utah) and requires fingerprinting, certification, background checks, etc. The only notable difference between the US and Switz. in this regard is a practical shooting portion. Tell me again how different Swiss laws are? Are you telling me the difference between a mass shooting every other week and not a mass shooting is registering guns? Because that would be the stupidest thing I've ever heard. That said, I'm also fine with registering my guns. I don't think it's going to do a damn thing, but I'm fine with it. I should also point out that the US has many places where we've adopted as strict or more strict laws than Switzerland. Illinois - Population of 12.8 million people (A few million higher than Swiss.) Purchasing a gun requires a Firearms Identity Card issued by the police. Must have pass a 21 hour training course to conceal carry and any law enforcement agent can object to the permit with reasonable suspicion. In private sales, the seller has to check the FOID of the buyer and keep a record of the sale for 10 years (just like Swiss.) etc. It still hasn't stopped gun deaths. Arguably, it hasn't even helped. When you rule out suicide, there is no statistical correlation between relaxed ownership of gun laws vs. strict gun laws when it comes to curbing gun violence. At least not in the US. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/table-20  And would you look at that? DC tops the list. Guess what their gun laws are?  Now I'm not making the argument that gun restriction is inherently bad, I'm just making the argument that it may not help. And when you're talking about altering a document of fundamental rights afforded to us, it's probably worth making sure you're actually correcting the problem. --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |

| Smarkil 02/15/18 1:26:38 PM #320 | RCtheWSBC posted... Approaching social problems as black or white isn't reasonable. It's not the problem, it's one of the many problems plaguing our society. The number of guns per capita doesn't matter. Having two AR-15's doesn't make you better at killing people. The amount of guns per person is a far more important statistic because every one person with a gun is a potential threat. Furthermore, the amount of guns owned really doesn't matter. The point is that Switzerland has gun laws roughly equivalent to the US. Anyone without a criminal record or mental disorder can buy one, yet they apparently don't have problems. Jen0125 posted... The problem is a variety of factors that need addressing including guns. But the reason people are going out and killing people isn't because guns exist. We've already established that. It certainly helps disgruntled people in their disgusting goals, but it's not the root of the problem. Gun ownership in and of itself does not necessitate an increase in gun violence. We've had virtually unrestricted gun control for the ~250 years this country has existed. Why is this only a problem now? People are angry. People are disturbed. People are unhappy. People are depressed. Why? --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |

| Smarkil 02/14/18 11:43:04 PM #46 | Doctor Foxx posted... People should know what a liar he is. And someone that cannot tell the truth should not be leading a nation. Everybody already knows he's a liar. We've had a million and one situations where that's been the case, and that's lying about current events - not some shit that happened years ago. Besides, every president lies. Every single one. Your president does, ours does, Germany's does, they all does. Even Lincoln lied and he was literally nicknamed 'Honest Abe'. It's a necessity to the office. If you're not lying about something, you're not doing your job as a leader. Roosevelt lied about us not going into WW2 Kennedy lied about Cuba Reagan lied about Iran etc. Lying is not a good metric for determining leadership. Moreover, lying about some stupid affair a fatass had years ago is even less important. --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |

Gun violence in both countries has been going down for decades now. Conversely, gun ownership has been going up for decades in the US. In fact, the rate at which gun violence in the US has gone down is greater than the rate at which gun violence went down in Australia since the gun ban. Furthermore, gun violence had been going down at a roughly unchanged rate prior to their gun ban. So yeah, let's go ahead and say 'muh australia'. If you/they want to compare to Australia then I'll compare it to the myriad of countries or cities with gun bans and we'll go back and forth until nobody cares anymore. --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |

There are plenty of beginner programs out there, so you can do a little research to find 'em. It can be intimidating, but I would suggest taking someone who knows what they're doing or alternatively going late at night so you can get a feel for how the lifts work without feeling self conscious. I prefer to lift at night myself anyway. Most of the time the gym is cleared out by about 11:00. --- "We're not even close" - Romans building Rome at the end of Day 1 |
