The druggies are trying to help correct this trend. Here lately at the meth and fentanyl gatherings, the "job" of one of the attendees is to remain sober enough to administer the Narcan.Quote:

I would take a hard look on the inside as to why one would feel the need to make personal attacks towards a stranger on a ski forum.
Albeit from the safety of a device.
A few of you definitely don't need to own firearms. I can agree with that.
Keep projecting bud! Should I repost the 1st hundred pages of the Carfax thread you fucking hypocrite?
Exactly how much mental real estate do I own in your head? JFC you need therapy.Quote:

The majority of gun deaths are fueled by drug and gang activity. Probably 80%.
We need to do both.Quote:

A lot of smoking deaths are sort of baked in because cancer and other health problems take a long time to develop. Cigarette smoking on the other hand among U.S. adults is around all-time lows.Quote:

Maybe we should raise taxes on guns and use the revenues to fund public health campaigns exposing the dangers of unsecured guns in America?
More of an issue than mass shootings yes. By a large margin.Quote:

This is going well.
So you’re saying that people who chose the gang life getting murdered is more of an issue than kids getting murdered in school because one demographic’s murder rate is a bigger number than the other? Sounds about right with you. It’s all about the bigger number with you.
It's not like any meaningful legislation is coming from The Padded Room.
And if it does... It'll be my Class 3 idea.
I think you're leaving out suicides here.Quote:

I'm not assigning value to the dead. I would bet more innocent bystanders are killed by gang/drug violence than in mass shootings.
Guns are actually a lot like cigarettes. They make the user/owner feel better but they are actually quite dangerous to that person and everyone else around them, especially immediate family..Quote:
