NOW I understand why everybody here is freaking out about a potential gun ban....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^this, op you now have to give up your firearms, how does that make you feel....

I'm not addicted to the internet so that doesn't apply to me.

I am on the pc MAYBE 20 minutes a day to check my email. I spend maybe 2 hours per week on the internet for entertainment unless I'm watching a movie or something.

Seriously, where do you people get all this time to be on GLP all day long?

Don't you work?

Are you so naive to believe that additional laws
will change the fact that mentally ill and violent persons
will always find a way to kill others..?

We already have laws against murder.

lol if you think about it for a bit
Its not alot making threads about it, its a few
Its kinda bait to see if you are a potential terrorist
The thing is the real mad people are not visiting this site at all
And if they do they do not at all

, he DIDN'T own the guns, his mother did! He killed her (a felony), stole them (another felony) and went on to commit 26/27 more felonies.

Who gets to decide what defines mental illness?

I mean it seems pretty sane to say...crazy people shouldn't be allowed to have guns.

But when you have psychiatrists who try and claim that being a member of the Tea Party or supporting Ron Paul means you have a mental illness, and they are being serious about it when they say it, you have to sit back and re-evaluate your premise.

Mental gymnastics. ^^^

So, GLP supports the psychos having weapons? Got it.

Funny how everybody refuses to answer the question here.

Do you think the mentally ill should have the right to own firearms?

It's simply yes or no and a small explanation as to how you come to that conclusion would be awesome.

So far, two pages and not a simple yes or no to be found.

Just knee jerk reactions to a thread calling out the mentally ill gun owners. You all flocked to this thread like a bug to the flame. LOL

One would draw the conclusion that I am indeed correct in my assessment.

The reason you all have a problem with it is because you do in fact have histories of mental illness and are scared they are going to take your guns.

And they should.

Nailed it!

Five hours is not 20 minutes OP. You have a problem

You're STILL dancing. LMAO

A simple yes or no will do.

The thrashing about is unnecessary, just answer the question if you dare.

Answering a question with another question. Priceless!

Yes or no will do.

You're 20 minutes is up. Why are you still online. Please get professional help.

I'm not talking about laws. I simple want to hear the defense for the mentally ill being allowed ot own firearms.

If you can't do that, move on, this thread isn't for you.

Man I hit the beehive with this one. LOL

OP, most of us dont give trolls like you what you are looking for.. So troll along and keep thinking you are some sane person when you are already to get on your knees and give up.. Good little troll you are.. the sheep is strong with this OP

Answer MY question you arrogant fuck. Who gets to decide what constitutes mental illness?

Look around this site for a few.

There are PLENTY of people here that are admittedly mentally ill and taking extremely dangerous drugs designed to suppress it but makes it worse.

You sound quite excited by your internet activity. This is also a sign of addiction according to the DSM. Your brain function and excitability are at a heightened level due to internet addiction. Sadly you're also in denial but if you print out this thread and bring it to the doctor they can help.

That is not the point! The government is not out to distinguish who can and cannot possess firearms; what they are trying to do is disarm EVERYONE, but they will start with the bigger semi and automatic weapons. But, mark my words, it will come down to ALL weapons because the masses are brainwashed with this 'politically correct' meme that is propagated ad nauseum throughout every media, i.e.) movies, news, video games. They create the problem, violence in the most seemingly innocent of things, entertainment, which leads to creating the problem, the 'crazies' and then offer the solution: the government will take care of you, we will ban all guns (but the violent video games and movies will run rampant). And then they will act as well as the masses and then the cycle repeats...masses react violently and then they become the problem and then the government steps in as savior and then solution...blah, blah, blah

I'm not talking about him, I'm talking about the mentally ill.

So you believe the mentally ill should be allowed to own guns?

Why can't anybody answer this calmly without freaking out?

I'm calm.

see just above you.

If they were serious about it, they would round them up.

Has that happened?

No.

At least you tried to be honest.

Doing research on the internet is not mental illness. They are talking about people who are ADDICTED to the internet, as in they can't do without it. I go days at a time without using it at times.

You're still dancing and failing.

They don't "round up crazies", you have to seek help by going to the doctor yourself OP. Please consider it.

This is PURE entertainment now.

How many SSRIs did YOU take today?

Translation:

We REFUSE to answer the question because we will look like a fucking retard doing so.

Owning a bong doesn't make you a libertarian, megadouche.

I asked first.

Do you think the mentally ill should own firearms? Yes or no.

Answer that and then we can debate the details.

They have to go through the fire like everybody else
Taking drugs to suppres the initiations are a bad idea

No. It hasn't happened....yet.

So lets say a new law goes into effect that really cracks down on mentally ill people owning firearms. Then, they decide that constitutional libertarianism is a mental illness.

So while you and I, being rational human beings, can agree that it probably isn't a good idea to let crazy people have guns, we cannot pretend that it is quite as black and white as you have phrased it in the original question you have posed to this forum.

Every post you continue to write out and not answer the question proves me correct. Not being able to answer simple questions without thrashing about is certainly a sign of mental illness.

Your silence on the question at hand tells me all I need to know about you.

Noted.
