| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28036927 12/14/2012 08:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In 1982, the Kennesaw City Council unanimously passed a law requiring heads of households to own at least one firearm with ammunition. Quoting: TheCartel The ordinance states the gun law is needed to "protect the safety, security and general welfare of the city and its inhabitants." Then-councilman J.O. Stephenson said after the ordinance was passed, everyone "went crazy." "People all over the country said there would be shootings in the street and violence in homes," he said. "Of course, that wasn't the case." In fact, according to Stephenson, it caused the crime rate in the city to plunge. Kennesaw Historical Society president Robert Jones said following the law's passage, the crime rate dropped 89 percent in the city, compared to the modest 10 percent drop statewide. "It did drop after it was passed," he said. "After it initially dropped, it has stayed at the same low level for the past 16 years." "I didn't think it could be written in a constitutional fashion," he said. "Obviously, it was constitutional, because the American Civil Liberties Union challenged it in court and we won." Jones said the ACLU challenged the law in a federal court just after it was passed. In response, the city added a clause adding conscientious objectors to the list of those exem [link to rense.com] ![]() |

The liberal idea of banning guns is worthless. This kind of thing is never going to stop as it has been happening forever all over the world. Lets focus on protecting people and start by having a security force at schools. |

No what is happening is what I've always known! Bill Whittle is an Obama-hater and ALL Obama-haters are racist bigots to the core! No Doubt about it: Right-wing America hates having a Black Man as President! Is Barack Obama NOT a nice guy? I DON'T KNOW! Is Barack Obama a narcissist? Does Barack Obama hate America? HELL NO! Does Barack Obama NOT incompentent? Is Barack Obama a muslim? No Obama is not muslim, he is most likley atheist, but fox news need something scarier so they pegged him as muslim. Is Barack Obama against the Constitution? Is Barack Obama destroying America? Is Barack Obama a Marxist? No Obama is not a marxist Is Barack Obama an Illegal Alien? Obama is not illegal. no more than bush was illegal back in 2001, how easily we forget. Is Barack Obama a homosexual? No, Obama is married to a woman. Plus, he is anti-gay marriage. Is Barack Obama "Pure evil"? Obama is not evil, hitler was evil, charles manson evil, dahmer was evil. Is Barack Obama an Anti-American? HELL NO! Is Barack Obama a Traitor to America? HELL NO! No more than bush is a traitor because of events on 911. If Obama is trying to take away your guns then why hasn't he done anything and how come whenever one of these "falseflags" happens the Administration says it's not the right time for gun control? And the American people hate racist bigots like yourself. do a lil fact checking before you run your lips about shit you know nothing about |

| Dapurps hakuna matata User ID: 26604792 12/14/2012 09:08 PM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Someone touched on this on another blog. The problem has little to do with gun control, it's the fact that we have deinstitutionalized the mentally ill. Years ago, the mentally ill with violent or erratic tendencies were locked up. In today's PC world, we treat them with a court ordered short term stay at a state mental hospital and then send them home with Abilify or Clozaril and expect them to be compliant with their meds and blend in-with minimal outpatient involvement. There's no doubt that this kid was a ticking time bomb, and apparently everyone in the neighborhood knew it. And for those of you who think this is an insensitive view, get a job at a state psych hospital. I worked for a state hospital in KY as an RN a couple years back. I had a Schizophrenic guy that was cool with me and polite but I had found out he was having some major delusions about me and was plotting some sort of weird attack. This was brought to staff's attention by other patients. Bottom line is: you cannot trust paranoid schizophrenics for a minute. Turn your back on them and see what happens. I have no doubt that this kid was seriously ill and should have been committed a LONG time ago. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8658014 Great post AC. Imagine how many less people would be on this site if all truly mentally ill people were in a psych ward. "What you perceive to be becomes your reality." ![]() dapurps |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27794780 12/14/2012 09:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Don't say that the gun shop owner has to sell to anyone just because it is not against the law. I think the shop owner can refuse to sell to anyone. Also I guess should be needed is a mental health evaluation before being able to purchase such weapons, and the age raised to age 25, and any type of semi-automatic or automatic weapon to age 30. That does not garanttee anything but it may help. To many disturbed people who want to actually feel emotions and live them instead of just acknowledging them. If using emotions as a basis for any evaluation then you are not using all of your mental facaulties. |
