Common sense isn't very common when it comes to guns

thegreatdebater @thegreatdebater (7316) • United States 18 Feb 13

Recently right wingers have been up in arms about the thought that doctors could ask if you have a gun in your house. When you first see a doctor they ask you a battery of questions to know more about you, and your medical past....

rodney850 Debater, My question for you is; Why are we prescribing medicine that there is even the least possibility that someone might go on a shooting spree or kill themselves? Especially to children! Our medical professionals are so quick to prescribe medicine...

How Much Do YOU Know About Gun Violence and the NRA?

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 19 Feb 13

The NRA is just this wonderful, patriotic organization that has the sole purpose of PROTECTING the rights of all law-abiding Americans, right? They truly believe we're all SAFER because of GUNS, right? Of course, they're correct...

rodney850 Gosh Annie, Sounds to me you are buying into the hogwash Piers Morgan is regurgitating on America. First and foremost you should check facts about areas of the country that are "gun free" zones. The one that comes to mind very quickly is Chicago, Illinois....

Who would fund the NRA's suggestions? US taxpayers of course!!

The NRA has provided suggestions on how to protect our school children. The most commonly noted suggestion is to have armed guards in every school. This is a common reaction to incidents like this, and in some cases it makes...

rodney850 debater, You know, I agree with you that there is a problem of gun violence in our society today. What I disagree with is that it is because of the guns. Yes, guns are the tools,but without the guns for tools the next best means would be used whether it be...

Who Thinks $400,000/Year is "Middle Class"?

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 31 Dec 12

I mean, REALLY, who thinks $250,000 is middle class? I just read that polls show that most Americans consider anything above $150,000/year to be "rich" and I tend to agree with that assessment. Sure, I know there are some places...
