Mal has been unable to state how advocating for gun control is unconstitutional or would make Trump a dictator. He's been unable to provide reason to consider a single proposal for gun control we've had unconstitutional.

Because he's bad at arguing. We've covered that.

Would you like to take up his fight instead?

Sure why not

It's questionable whether or not gun control in America would stop mass shootings.

A lot of the shooters either bought guns illegally or stole them from someone who bought them legally.

At the same time there's a lot of "near misses." for example The Orlando Shooter was turned away at a gun store because he was a lunatic, as a reuslt he just went to a different gun-store and bought his stuff.

And the Elliot Rogers guy actually was flagged by the police. They visited his home and spoke to him (when he had guns and a manfiesto in his home) and said he was a quiet, nice boy and then left.

So how do we know for sure that increased background checks or banning the sale of certain weaponry will stop people willing to kill 16 children from getting a gun?

I mean sure it worked for the UK and Japan and France and Australia and Canada and etc etc etc etc BUT they don't have the same gun culture, they don't have the same guns already in circulation, they don't have the same black market for illegal guns.

You'd be violating the second ammendment for something we're not even sure would work AND a third of the population would oppose aggressively.

Anecdotal I know but if the schools I went to had armed guards or teachers with guns, people would have died.

Some of the kids used to drive the staff insane and some of the teachers were unstable.

One of the teachers got harrased and ended up being thrown down a flight of stairs (she was female BTW)

Another foreign teacher used to snap and beat children with sticks (she was fired)

Students used to get in fights, break into places (including after school was closed) and just generally be asswipes.

There would have been deaths and injuries. I cannot for the life of me see it working.

I also had metal dectectors too by the way and they didn't do a thing to stop people bringing things in. So I kinda laugh at anyone who supports them.

No. How would their drug trade die if it were legal?

Because people wouldn't buy illegal dirty dangerous drugs from gang members and backalleys if drugs were being sold by clean taxed means?

Look no further than California and Weed. It's currerently super-expensive and awkward to buy legally yet it's crippled illegal weed sales.

Colorado Illegal weed sales went from 100% (obviously) to 27% in under a year.

Imagine the Cartels made 27% of what they made now? They'd have to look for ventures elsewhere

And those numbers are going to get lower as Weed gets cheaper and more popular legally.

Now imagine if all drugs were legal. They would be even cheaper.

There would be no money in running them illegally, especially with the risk involved.

The reason why Cartels make so much money is that there is literally billions of dollars to be made in drug running. You can take out an entire drug running network and would be replaced within a week

Now imagine instead there wasn't billions to make but a few hundred million (if that) and you were competing against legal sellers?

You'd turn illegal drug smuggling into illegal coca-Cola Smuggling. There'd be no money in it and no reason to kill people over it.

In the context of Mass Shootings, especially in an epididemic that is unique to one single nation. I strongly disagree.

I reject your notion that a correlation between America (arguably the greatest country in the world) and lower homicide/suicide rates than some other nations proves that gun-control doesn't work and wouldn't help stop mass shootings.

A correlation doesn't imply causation. Mass shootings in Australia were already rare before the gun ban, which means fewer mass shootings afterward is pretty statistically insignificant.

And by thew way, the homicide rate in Australia dropped at a slower rate than America's did in the time after their gun ban. Shall we take that to mean a gun ban will result in slower homicide rate decline? It's a correlation, after all.

I'd note every correlation but not view it as causation.

That's logic 101.

The key thing is I feel like you're ignoring that this is a problem that is literally unique to America purely because you feel that it reflects poorly on values that you like.

That's where the rest of the world comes in. Not on whether or not guns are good or bad or whether or not suicides rates will be in flux. But on the fact no one apart from the US has this problem where the population is in fear and knows that every few months or so some nut (who is always male) is going to massacre a bunch of kids for no good reason.

And the logic of "Maybe we should have efforts to make it hard for that nut to get guns." does not seem unreasonable. Especially after it was successful elsewhere. Going "Well if we make those efforts people will starting killing themselves in droves." however is unreasonable.

Especially up against the other correlation that nations which did have mass shootings and then increased gun control ended up no longer having mass shootings.

Your argument entirely is "Gun Control will cause spikes in homicide and suicide of greater value of lives than these massacared kids because guys in the UK keep stabbing each other all the time like bunnies with knives instead of dicks."

And you don't view that argument as a non-sequitur.

Gun Culture is completely different.

The US owes (or at least the accepted belief is that it owes) it's existence and freedom to guns. So owning guns is literally part of the constitution.

As a result guns are idolized and worshipped. Have been for centuries. Families have them, some people's earliest memories are shooting with their parents.

This means there is an enormous amount of guns in circulation and a hundred million people who love them.

Meanwhile at the same time there is a constant influx of guns coming in from Mexico. And a generally drug/crime filled class of gangs and undesirables with guns also.

As a result guns are absolutely everywhere. Attempts to limit them are not taken seriously and there is a mass hysteria of both Gun Fear and Gun Worship that makes people unreasonable.

AS a result gun violence is really high.

This is not part of the history or culture of Canada Or Switzerland. And there is no Mexican boarder flooding guns in either.

Right-wing news outlet Fox News is facing a lawsuit after allegedly outing a man as gay. Silas Pierce is suing the Fox News Network, claiming that Fox outed him as gay during a previous lawsuit.

The Fox News Network (FNN) originally went to court during a legal dispute with the production company of the potential reality show. In 2014, the network arranged for a reality series about a father and son business with production company Leftfield.

Pierce, who runs Tropic Estate Sales in Florida, was cast along with his family which included two sons. During the course of this filming, the network cancelled production of the show due to concerns that Pierce had lied about his family.

Leftfield then began a legal case against Fox for breach of contract, reportedly suing the media giant for $4.5 million.

Initial concerns allegedly arose at Fox after Pierces sons referred to him exclusively as Silas, rather than calling him Dad. Similar questions were then asked about Pierces wife Barbara, as doubt was cast about her authenticity as well.

According to court documents obtained by the Hollywood Reporter, Fox asked Leftfield for proof that the two young men shown on the show were Pierces sons.

The network was told that Pierce was gay and had nine children, two of which were on the show.

However, this caused the Fox News Network to become even more suspicious, as gay and lesbian people could not adopt in Florida at the time. The network then reportedly asked Leftfield for paperwork to prove the sons adoption.

According to the court documents, the production company claimed that Pierce had legal guardianship over the boys after they had been adopted by his parents prior to their deaths. However, this was later proved in court to be false, and that Pierce was not the boys adopted father or brother.

The documents reportedly state: Silas had no legal relationship with Matt and AJ whom he falsely claimed to have adopted and that Silas parents were not dead but instead very much alive and living in Florida.

This lawsuit between Fox and Leftfield was settled privately out of court in 2016. Pierce is now suing the Fox News Network and Leftfield for allegedly outing him as gay during these proceedings.

The case, filed last month in Floridas middle district court, reportedly names former Fox News co-president Bill Shine and the estate of former Fox CEO Roger Ailes as defendants.

Pierce is suing the Fox News Network for publishing private facts, breach of contract and interfering with a business.

He is reportedly seeking damages of at least $15,000. Fox News has filed a motion to dismiss the case.

A recruitment consultant has been fired for telling a lorry driver that he wouldnt be given a job interview because he is British. Michael Fowler, 39, applied for the job eight miles away from his home in Salisbury, Witlshire.

However, he received an email from Bulgarian recruitment consultant Plamena Ivanova saying Our positions exclude British candidates. Blu Global said that Ms Ivanova has now lost her job as a result of the email in which she said: Hi Michael. Are you British because our positions exclude British candidates?.

The company said it was completely shocked at what had happened. Recruitment consultant fired for telling lorry driver no Brits allowed. Michael, who has been a driver for 12 years and had applied for the position on job-site Indeed, said it was advertised for drivers to live and work in the EU.

The ad specified that applicants must be EU citizens and have a good level of English. I was just gobsmacked, he said. I thought I must have read the job advert wrong, but I hadnt.

A spokesperson for Blu Global confirmed Ms Ivanoa no longer worked for the company and said: We refute any allegations that we, as a business, discriminate in any way against our UK-based applicants.

No candidate is denied a chance of employment based on their nationality, age, race, gender or sexual orientation. We can confirm that we continuously place candidates of European and British nationality with all of our past and present clients as we advertise for, and recruit, candidates both in the UK and across mainland Europe.

Any deviation from this policy, by any member of staff or any independent person or organisation acting under or using the Blu Global brand, is not supported in any way by the company.

We will fully investigate this allegation.

Mr Fowler added: I work for agencies all the time. I guess I was shocked because Ive been doing this job for 12 years and you get drivers from everywhere. Ive never really experienced anything like this before, everyone works together normally.

Several players have been left out of the France squad to face Italy in their next Six Nations game after the French Rugby Federation said it had sanctioned those who went on a night out following the defeat by Scotland.

Jacques Brunel has decided to exclude from that list the players who went out after the defeat in Scotland, the FFR said. With this inappropriate behaviour, they failed to respect their duty as international players.

Alexandre Lapandry, Arthur Iturria, Sekou Macalou, Anthony Belleau, Flix Lambey, Jonathan Danty, Rmi Lamerat, Louis Picamoles and Teddy Thomas, who scored two tries against Scotland, do not feature in the squad for the game on 23 February in Marseille. However, the FFR did not name the players sanctioned.

The FFR said on Monday that some players had been interviewed by Scottish authorities. Police Scotland said that following an initial report of sexual assault in Edinburgh city centre during the early hours of 12 February, police conducted various lines of inquiry, including speaking to a number of potential witnesses. These inquiries have established that no crime has been committed.

France lost their first two games, a 15-13 cliff hanger against Ireland in Paris and 32-26 to Scotland at Murrayfield on Saturday.

I guess French is not the language of love after all

What is it with athletes? Why can't they keep their hands off girls who aren't interested in them?

I wasn't aware passing/advocating for legislation was something dictators do.

Passing legislation that bans guns AND going directly against the Constitution is a hallmark of dictatorship, yes.

"This has worked in every other nation on Earth except Switzerland and they don't have these problems."

"Oh yeah! Well if it worked literally everywhere else than that means it worked when every single EVIL person did it!"

"....Yeah? so?

"WELL THEREFORE IT'S CLEARLY EVIL!"

All of those dudes drank milk, wore clothes, drove cars and used flushable toilets too dude. You gonna give those up?

A German lawyer is being bombarded with random deliveries of food by what has been described as a case of severe pizza stalking. Guido Grolle likes pizza, but he said that it is becoming so bad that he is unable to work.

He has already received over 100 orders in the last two and a half weeks with delivery drivers often passing one another as they drop off their orders. They appear at all times of the night and hes even received notifications while hes been in the shower getting ready for work.

Some pizzerias have cottoned on to whats happening and have called him to check whether he really has ordered anything from them. There have been so many pizzas ordered that delivery drivers have been bumping into one another in the street

It is a mystery as to who is behind the bizarre stunt. Normally they have been sending pizzas to his office in Dortmund, but since the pizzerias cottoned on the pizza flinger has started sending sushi, sausage and Greek food. He has filed a complaint, turned off his work phone and put his emails through a filter just so he can get through his work.

Another theory is that hes been targeted because someone has mistaken him for being part of a bailiff company that is in the same building as his legal firm. Police are treating the incident as stalking because the offender is not being financially or materially enriched by what is happening.

Investigations are continuing.

the final authority on all legal custody decisions, including those concerning religion.

It concerns religion.

You're pretending not to understand why this is controversial.

It's like you're attempting to the least logical statements that you possible can in weak attempts to bait people into questioning your intelligence just so you can mark them.
