My rage for today was simple. WHY THE HELL WAS THE FORUM DOWN?

According to what it said a short while before it came back on, "routine maintenence".

Doesn't stop me from being a bit annoyed about it.

EDIT: Almost forgot, NRA guy really wants armed guards in schools.

If putting armed police in schools is crazy, 'then call me crazy'

We've been calling you crazy for a while now.

Also, from the comments, someone had the idea of having a flat $100000 sales tax for guns, and $75 tax per bullet, plus banning sales foreign guns. I'm opposed, since it's unrealistic, and all but prohibits the legitimate uses of guns, such as for hunting and competition.

I wasn't able to read up more on ALMANAC, and the forums were down ;_; So bored during class time...

YOU SHOULD BE LEARNING!!!

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Where I am, there have been police in all the schools for years.

My school does absolutely nothing in-class after the second semester's finals! Dx
All day so far, I've watched a movie for one period, and read a book for two.

We have one policeman that occasionally wanders through the junior and senior high schools, but he doesn't carry a weapon. (At first the police department wanted him to have one, but then they were unanimously shouted down by the school board and PTA.) Them NRA folks are crazy.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

The cops at my schools always carried guns.

[Facekillz058]

We never have cops at our school.
We have one that lives, like, literally, a stone throw away from it though.
He came up that time we were on lock down...
And that time a first grader dialed 911 by accident, somehow.

There is an officer at one of the local high schools but seeing as I graduated in 2005 from a completely different school I don't know what the deal is about that. What I am raging about is that I accidentially broke the knob on the kitchen sink for hot water and the schizophrenic closet homosexual with a fart fetish who keeps on sexually harassing me was dancing like some kind of chomo just a few feet away while I was trying to fix it.

It was annoying and right now if I had a gun with six bullets and I could shoot anyone without consequences it would be [REDACTED] six times. I can't really say his name here despite the fact that he is not even smart enough to use Google to find porn, let alone search for his own name. Sometimes I pity him but right now if he starts wolf-whistling at me again and whacking off while doing so I will want him to drop.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Maybe you should stop living with mentally ill people.

[kaijyuu]

I've suggested that before. Dei's situation is such he has nowhere else to go, unless he wants to be homeless (which is probably an extremely bad idea).

I'm opposed because the problem isn't guns. It's fucking lunatics and psychopaths. "Oh god, blame the guns!"
Wait. So if I stab twenty people to death, you're going to start passing KNIFE laws? What the fuck kind of logic is this?
Sorry, I just feel like blaming the gun is fucking stupid.

[kaijyuu]

The argument Hans is that guns are enablers. They enable wackos and psychopaths to do far more damage than they could otherwise.

CJA knife act 1988.
Good logic.
Guns don't kill people, they just make it really easy for people to kill people. Don't blame guns, don't make guns blameless.

... But I can make a bomb with some fertilizer in an hour, and kill three times as many people with that as with a gun. People will find a way. Shouldn't... We concentrate our efforts on helping violent crazy people just become regular, non-violent crazy people? Wouldn't that be a better solution?

[Heron TSG]

There are paths that are neither 'ban guns' nor 'do nothing'. We could better enforce gun registration, restrict access to freaking automatic weapons in urban areas, all sorts of things.

It would be, but making less explosion-prone fertilizer would also help.
