Damn.

[Steve McMahon]

It appears to be a domestic dispute from early reports. Two adults dead including the shooter, two kids taken to hospital.

many lives changed forever....

I hate guns !!!!

I hate guns !!!!

You are surrounded!

[Joe (SoCal)]

You are surrounded!

Right now I'm surrounded by succulents & laptops I've never needed a gun don't know why anyone Needs ​one or as many as nuts do.

Why does one need more than one golf club? Or pairs of shoes? Or...

Truth is, I haven't shot mine in decades. Loud noises upset me now. But some have meaning, from competition or because it belonged to dad. I pull'em out on a rare occasion, wipe'em down, put'em away.

Funny thing is, I tend not to be attracted to women that like guns, they tend to be scary. How's that for a double-standard?

I hate guns !!!!

You hate what guns are capable of doing.

That assigns blame appropriately, and allows you to express a legitimate feeling without anyone being able to dispute it.

I also hate what guns are capable of doing.

The bad part is, I love what guns are capable of doing, sometimes, too. I used a gun just yesterday to dispatch a rat the cat had tortured for a while, then left to suffer.

Guns are beautiful, horrible machines, like the animals (including me) that wield them.

Peace,
Robert

the 'need' stupidity always astonishes me... if we were limited to what we 'need' there would be less boats and no art. I have pointed out that outlawing motorcycles would undoubtedly save lives yet people tell me that I am unreasonable and then tell us we never 'need' to hunt or target practice or defend ourselves... stupid

[Joe (SoCal)]

Nope - I hate guns ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY if it was up to me I would melt them all and make a monument to all those needlessly killed by them. I have NEVER EVER NEEDED A GUN

They are a tool specifically designed to Kill the most efficient way possible.

[Phillip Allen]

have you ever 'needed' a baseball bat?

[Joe (SoCal)]

Who ?

[Phillip Allen]

is that a response to someone you have on ignore?... interesting

In TOTAL agreement!!!

[Joe (SoCal)]

I find it odd that I notice the same ignored ( FOR YEARS ) people post after me

Again with the false equivalence. Baseball bats are not designed, built, and bought with the idea of killing people.

[Bob (oh, THAT Bob)]

Well Joe, if Trump has his way, I'll be one of the ones rounded up, and I won't go quietly, even if it upsets me. In the past, I would have had trust in the criminal justice system, but now, knowing what I do, I know that I could be innocent and rot in jail for ten years without even going to trial.

[Bob (oh, THAT Bob)]

Neither is a match rifle.

[JimD]

I'm fine with hunting rifles used to put food on the table. But that's about it. Where is Utopia when you need it?

Everything I made in this thread http://forum.woodenboat.com/showthre...ner&highlight= was made without ever NEEDING a gun. I also Hate ​game meat.

[Peerie Maa]

[Bob (oh, THAT Bob)]

Non Sequitur is appropriate. The match rifle is for shooting at paper targets. "No living things were harmed during this match." Except perhaps trees for the paper. But love the gun rack on the rover, that's funny.

[JimD]

I also Hate ​game meat.

I hate slaughter houses. But I understand what you're about.

[TomF]

Not a large enough death toll to prompt POTUS' debut.

[Bob (oh, THAT Bob)]

Joe, I'll advocate that all rifle ranges should be turned into parks if you'll do the same with golf courses. And while I'm at it, I'll throw away the cars and the bars and the war, and make sweet love to you.

[Dave Hadfield]

Pandora opened the box.

[CWSmith]

I have NEVER EVER NEEDED A GUN

You are not alone. I have lived the same.

[Phillip Allen]

I am surprised you need to have it pointed out that a baseball bat is a 'club'.

want to rethink your false equivalence statement now?

also, I point out that our muscle boy bragged about using a baseball bat on someone he thought was going to rob him

[Joe (SoCal)]

​Awwww Shucks™ Who ?

[skuthorp]

I hear one of the children injured has died.

And it was a special needs class.

You have no standing re 'poor taste' in these matters Phillip.
