Out of Pod Experience

Thank God his gun jammed. It's a shame no one else in that theater was armed to stop that sicko.

Taking away guns: its pointless because murderers will still find a way to murder... don't forget he had rigged an apartment with IEDs, and a person who gives up his liberties for security deserves neither. If you give your weapons to someone else, you are at their mercy. Doesn't always work out well. In fact did you even see the movie?

I'll leave out the spoilers and say this: the American Revolution started because the bad guys, Britian at the time, wanted to take away our guns so they could control us better. That's what people who want power do, and they do exist: they make sure to protect it. One of those ways is make sure your tanks can run over any and all civil rights protesters (a la Teinamen square or when Iran killed protesters who found out the government rigged the elections) at will without fear.

"out of pod experience" means anything outside of EvE.

Funny, a few people in this thread are talking about the first amendment and this guy here, probably an american, is offended by what's being written. Or, perhaps i'm being too literal. /shrugs

Just a quick note, as I don't intend to get any more involved in the argument than this:

When people died in the shooting in Norway, the response was "Oh my God, how horrible! Our hearts go out to the people of Norway!" Yet, when something similar happened in the United States, the forums exploded with 'That's what you get for being dirty, evil warmongers and allowing your people to own firearms!"

I don't know about you, but to me that seems more than a tiny bit prejudiced and cold-hearted.

not that serious to need assault rifles and such stuff in my house yet

edit: you edited first I see, anyway guess you've got the message Theron

I didn't edit crap, my post was removed. I guess it was "Offensive"

Thumbs up for looking like a fool tho.

I have no issue with you owning a gun for protection or hunting or sport. I simply dont get why you need military grade weaponry.

At the end of the day, it really doesn't matter.

Crazy people that set their minds on sick selfish acts like this will go to great lengths to make them happen. What is considered actually military hardware is incredibly difficult for a civilian to get his hands on legally, what most consider "military hardware" isn't and this isn't forgetting no law keeps determined people from getting their hands on illegal stuff anyways.

It's a tired out argument, but the truth of it can't be diminished. If this kid could not get his hands on a gun, he could have used a vehicle, or made a bomb... the sick mind of a killer can come up with many ways to inflict their pain and no matter what you think you can do to stop them will be completely impotent in the face of a resourceful person dead set on committing an act of terror.

When terrible things like this happen we all grasp for answers, but there aren't any. We want to lash out and make it not possible, but there is nothing defined we can do to stop random acts of violence. Nothing.

Sometimes you get lucky, a cop runs into the guy on his way to a crime, a friend knows something is up and speaks up to authorities before it's too late... sometimes you don't get so lucky.



That's both messed up to say and patently false.

Yes, surely my duck hunting napalm isn't military grade

Also, if you want to legally own a "military grade weapon" in the US... say an M16 or an AK with a selector lever. The end cost with the fees is going to be around $350,000

There isnt a year that goes by without a mass shooting in the states.

Just about everything these guys touch.



They just make it easyer.
