the person to even suggest taking guns away from any US citizen without due process is Trump
Yes, I’m sure Hillary and Obama never said anything like that¡ Guess you missed today’s headlines, too. Did you know that the Founding Fathers were basically proto-fascists? And yet you want Americans not to be... Fun little fact. (I’m not, but hey)
Sounds like bored/stupid people doing stupid stuff. Boeing had this issue, I think they still do. As they would move their fuselages via rail, they would end up at the end of the line with .22 holes in them. People were shooting at the trains as they rolled by.
When a person was shooting at cars on the freeways in Arizona, the people fought back by forming posses and the perpetrator was found quickly. No, they didn’t just kill the idiot. However, bounty hunters could just as easily be hired to find the scum shooting at these buses.
I say let sgov't employees handle it if you have the manpower available since they're already on the payroll. If you don't, then seek to hire contractors to locate the individual(s). In the end, you still need actual law enforcement to make an arrest if you want any conviction to stick.
Any genuine attempts to confiscate arms, instead of voluntary measures would be met with an overwhelming response from the many people who understand and take seriously constitutional matters in the US. There are a lot of us. I don’t take seriously anyone in Washington posturing on this issue.
There's an even better solution: disarm the perpetrators.
The real solution is to ban pellet guns altogether! Alone with rocks and stones and other throw-able objects lest they might be used by someone for something terrible.
Yeh, ban everything but Assault Weapons... We NEED Assault Weapons... They keep the population down.

Since the thread exists in the first place to be “timely” (despite Congress already giving up–for now–on even more unconstitutional gun bans) and since it’s populated with a myriad false statements, we can end the thread right now by me saying seven simple words. They’ll shut up all the liberals and likely get the thread closed. Wanna end the thread? I’m game!

OK ... Game On!
(at least we wouldn't have to worry about background checks anymore. The crazies would be gone, gone, gone...)
Then everyone who ever cut off a bus would be dead.
No, then you just arm everyone. It's the principle of mutually assured destruction. Everyone would know that if you ever used your gun, you would instantly be shot by everyone around you. And so that would ensure that nobody would ever use their gun. We know this would work because all people are rational game theorists, and carefully consider the costs and benefits of every decision they make.
I suppose another option would be for nobody to have guns, but that's just silly -- people love guns! And it's clear why -- they're so useful for so many things! You can kill animals with them, add holes to things that need holes but don't currently have holes, etc.
So an article about some idiot/idiots shooting BB guns at windows of tech company vans is slowly spiraling into a pro/anti gun discussion? Stop the madness!

I know +1 comments aren't allowed, but I plus one this. I'd rather discuss the impact big tech is having to the economies than this gun control politics garbage.

There are unlimited threads in type of forum. What about "the impact big tech is having to the economies" would you like to discuss?

Game OFF.
There was no reason for this thread to escalate the way it did, but yet, here we are.

Oh, the misanthropy.

If one supports Trump suggesting the removal of due process for US citizens then I guess that would be welcome news.
Also TS: Did you know that the Founding Fathers were fascists?
:facepalm:
