The distribution seems to concentrated.
"Kill those who protect and serve and no one feels safe" David Rossi

On some superficial level I understand it.

But it seems like cart before horse to me.
The 14th Amendment promises "equal protection of the laws."

So if there are two homicides; one where a tax payer is killed, the other where a COP is killed;
why would the COP killer be more severely (or differently) punished?

If COPs are for our protection, why wouldn't it be the guy that killed one of us that's more severely punished?

- or, same for both -

why did PA spend 11 million dollars looking for eric frein, who killed a state trooper. i live in PA and i will guarantee they wouldnt spend no 11 million dollars looking for someone if i was murdered.

i dont want this thread to turn into another race war thread. the point of this thread is to show that everytime theres a citizen mass shooting, everybody is freaking out. but yet the police in this country kill way more people than mass shooters do, but you never see any media outcry about disarming the cops. the statistics dont lie, police kill way more people than mass shooters do, but noone ever talks about disarming cops. in 1 year alone, police killed double the amount of people than all mass shootings combined since 1982. thats pretty scary.



well, there is finally some outrage for training cops better

difference being, cops are seen as gunning down 'potentially violent' 'criminals' to protect us

whereas mass killers are usually picking 'innocent' victims at random


some are potentially violent, not all. half of them arent even armed and cops shoot them anyway. and thats only killings. how many people are falsely arrested, charged with bogus crimes, beaten and the list goes on and on. its always "justified" when a cop commits homicide. theres never a public outcry for better training, or mental health evaluations. cops get fired for police brutality, they simply go to another town and get a job with a different police department. the fact that douche bag barack insane obomba wants more "gun control" over americans, but refuses to ever touch the issue that as an american citizen your 9 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than a terrorist. why isnt the media so outraged about big pharma? after all, all these mass shooters were taking some kind of mind altering prescription drug. wheres the public outcry to hold big pharma accountable? nope, its always the gun that did it. gun control IS the problem. if people were allowed to have guns at that church, this roof fellow could have been stopped, instead of just being able to murder people with no resistance. so the government wants americans to surrender their gun rights because of mass shooting, but yet in 1 year cops kill more people than all mass murders in the past 30 years combined. i think its the police who should be disarmed. all citizens should be able to own/carry firearms wherever we want, its our right. if you dont like it and your afraid of guns, o well dont carry one. but then dont turn around and b1tc|-| when you get mugged or assaulted and the cops with guns werent there to help you. the point of my ramble is, you gun grabbers will never win, so stop trying. quit worrying about disarming law abiding citizens, and worry about the real problems that causes these situations, big pharma drugs, and too many gun restrictions. and ill also note that by the DOJ's own statistics, violent crimes have been steadily DECREASING over the past 20 years. so why all this call for more gun control?

has anyone here actually gotten paid to attend one of his rallies? if not, then nobody knows for sure... just more media whoredom, typical of every election... fact is, it doesn't matter who's voted as president, nothing will change for the better until the entire system is revamped...

Socialist Bernie Sanders is reported to be attracting larger campaign crowds than any other candidate of either party.

Perhaps they're mostly college kids.

The political pendulum swings. Isn't it the Republican's turn?

"President Sanders"?! - yikes -

Meanwhile, is there one Republican that's emerging from the group?
Or do we have to wait for the debates for that?

i would never vote for a socialist.

Is the Right To Life and the Right to defend it obsolete?


There is no "Right to Life" in the Constitution.


It doesn't have to be. The Declaration of Independence outlined it as an "inalienable right". Meaning; regardless of what any other document says, citizens should know they have a right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness". No government can tell us otherwise.

It also states that if the government becomes "destructive to these ends" it is the "right" and responsibility to alter and/or abolish said government. This is where the second amendment comes in. If the meaning were only that people working for the government could have arms, then how could the people be guaranteed the ability to "alter" or "abolish" said government?

The Declaration is a mindset, a statement made that encourages people to keep their independence, rather than hand the power to make ALL decisions to a select body of people. If the constitution is the brain, the Declaration of Independence is the heart. One cannot survive without the other.

I believe it was Jefferson who said; "If men cannot be trusted to govern themselves, then how can they be trusted to govern others? Or has god granted us angels in the form of kings to watch over us? Let history answer this question."


Among several reasons, the Declaration was never made into a legally binding document in the United States, precisely because it DOES talk about an inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. At least half of the United States which came into being over a decade after the Declaration was signed and published, were extremely opposed to those concepts.

None of the people who that document talked about, were citizens of the United States.

The Declaration does NOT overrule any other document. It doesn't have any legal force whatsoever in the United States. Because at the time it was written and signed, the United States didn't exist.

My only point continues to be, that the second Amendment is open to interpretation. It has BEEN reinterpreted many times, including by the Supreme Court.

It could do with a bit of a rewrite, for the sake of clarification, however I wouldn't trust anyone in office today to take on that job.



"the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed"


how is that up for interpretation?

Well there were mass shootings in Detroit and Philly over the weekend. Where's the CNN 24/7 coverage on THAT? 10 people shot at a kids birthday party in Detroit. You had 400 people outside having some kind of block party and then somebody starts busting caps and the next thing you know everyone's breaking out firepower. Lucky it was ONLY 10 people shot, one of whom died.

Philly is again more than 10 injured including an 18 month old infant.

So Rev Al, Rev Jesse, Don Lemon, Sonny Hoskins, where's the institutional outrage? I guess black lives ONLY matter when white people shoot them, huh?

97% of African American homicide victims are killed by OTHER African Americans, BUT America has a race problem?

You want to banish the Confederate flag? I say we take BET off the air and close down the NBA! Just MAYBE Donald Sterling was onto something.


hahahahahahaha, good point though. i remember one of these "mass shootings" we had, maybe colorado shooter. it was 24/7 news coverage for a long time. as that was happening there was a huge gang shootout in new orleans where like 11 people were shot, but it was all african americans. they didnt even mention it on the news 1 time, they scrolled it on the bottom of the screen mixed in with the other news and that was the only time i ever saw of it. so if a bunch of african americans shoot eachother, its not even worthy of a mention on the news, but yet they talk about james holmes every day for like a month. talking about gun control and how guns are the problem. but most people dont know that james holmes had 2 movie theaters closer to him, but they permitted guns. so he drove an hour and a half to the closet movie theater that was a "gun free zone" and thats where he chose to commit his crime. so are guns the problem, or lack of guns the problem?

Police Killed More Americans In 2014 Than All U.S. Mass Shootings Combined
Dees Illustrations collage
By Amanda Warren

With another recent mass shooting having taken place last week in Charleston, South Carolina - such a crisis is the perfect opportunity for the President to yet again stop just short of using the "C-word" - confiscation. Or "C" for the gun Control he promoted.

Before any victims were even in the ground, he exploited the tragedy for politicized gun control agendas.

Obama is tired of making speeches about mass killings. He's tired of them. He doesn't want killings to be the "new normal." I agree with the President. Random, mass murder whether by guns, caused by mental illness, or by hatred needs to stop.

Therefore, I took the liberty of finding its biggest source...

If it's really true that you're 9 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than a terrorist - then we need to have a talk. But where is our speech to address the thousands of Americans executed by police in the last 15 years? Is it not as speech worthy when the number of dead Americans is only 3 per day and is spattered across the country? Victims one by one?

Although we aren't allowed to know the actual number of American citizens killed by police each year, a database has been tracking news stories since 2013.

In 2014, at least 1,104 Americans were executed on site by law enforcement. No trial - just violent death. A quick scan of the headlines shows an inordinate amount of shooting deaths. So, the media reports on them, but without the outrage reserved for lone shooters who walk into public places spraying bullets at random people.

Not only do some sources average the deaths out to 3 per day, but also one American every 7.6 hours. That means if you saw this headline before work, and then read the story after you got home from work - two Americans have likely died at the hands of law enforcement in the meantime.

The media supports the agenda to remove gun ownership from law abiding citizens because of conveniently timed and fishy looking mass shootings by deranged males - but not from deranged, gun-wielding males with badges. The ones who may gravitate to such positions, who don't get screened. Who can simply move to another state or nearby department and restart their law enforcement career after they have killed.

Back to the numbers comparison - how does the amount of Americans murdered by police in 2014 (and on average every day) compare to the amount of Americans killed in all U.S. mass shootings? (A mass shooting is typically one person, who has randomly killed at least 4 people in a public place within 24 hours. Not to be confused with sprees, serial murders or mass genocide)

It's double.

In 2014 police killed about twice the amount of Americans as those killed in all U.S. mass shootings combined, starting in 1982.

The amount of people killed in all U.S. mass shootings - 567.

That's 567 people in 157 shootings starting in the 1980s. In 2014 alone - in one year flat - police nearly killed double that amount.

Again, where are the speeches? Where are the calls for mental health screenings and strict regulations for the authorities? Officers who kill don't have their three-part name plastered on front pages - no calls for their guns removed. And when they happen to use one of their "less-than-lethal" weapons - they kill. When they have only their fists, boots or their arms - they kill.

This is precisely why you never, ever give up your Second Amendment - or your guns. The tragedy argument must always be flipped back to the authorities who want you to be without any defense, against deranged authorities with all the force. Turn. The. Tables.

The trouble with malleable media statistics and their tunnel vision is - it's all pretty, framed lies. Recall when school shootings first took place - it was reported on daily for what seemed like years until the word "school" was now associated with "shooting" or gun violence. Of course it has has taken place and is horribly tragic. Nothing discounts that. But it's a focus redirect for a reaction and controlled outcome. Just think about what now continues to mow down Americans in violence at a most startling rate. Think about how different it would be if the media framed police involved shootings in the same light...they should! It should always be a national tragedy.

Not - the "new normal."

An inordinate amount of shootings took place between 2010-2013. Obama doesn't even wait for burials anymore before he calls for the removal of guns before hitting the greens again. And if people don't pay attention and sift through the truth they will find themselves stuttering and speechless when authoritarians - law enforcement perhaps - yank guns from their warm, living hands.

Take for instance, the new federal crime unit Chicago called for in the "wake of the 2014 Chicago Easter weekend shootings." Guns were the boogeymen man in Obama's old stomping grounds despite the fact that Chicago boasted the strictest gun control laws in the country - and also surpassed New York City in murder crimes in 2011.

The media rode the choppy waves of pointing to crime in Chicago as a reason to rid its citizens of guns, but also wanting to showcase a drop in crime to show that strict gun control works. The problem is - there was no drop in murder. Just a drastic change in how homicides were reported. It's amazing how much a homicide looks like "death from natural causes" when law enforcement deliberately record it that way. Additionally, operations for this federal unit began April 1 - before Easter. How then could the unit be formed in "the wake of a shooting" when it happened before the shooting took place? I think you know the answer to that...

Additionally, the mainstream media is still purse-lipped on the "mass shooting that never was." The one that was prevented by one responsible person with a gun. In fact, the "non-event" was lumped in with other shooting stories to showcase "more gun violence." (That's also known as deception.) An off-duty female officer saves the world from another Aurora-type shooting? Normally, that holds all the media-trappings of a heroic cause for celebration. Except when that last slot on the machine doesn't match the greater agenda of gun control - then it doesn't make it past the cutting room floor.

Again, I'm going to have to side with Obama on this one. Too many killings are taking place - it cannot be the "new normal" - but where, O where, shall we look?

Brandon Turbeville writes:

As for [Obama's] claims that mass shootings do not happen in other countries, of course, he can easily be proven wrong. They do. And when they do, they are generally much more dramatic due to the disarmed nature of the public.

The Second Amendment is non-negotiable. It has to be, unless the world wants to witness an En Masse shooting here in America like never before. Which is why it was written of course - the only reason why it was written.


hmmm everytime a mass shooting happens theres outcry to disarm citizens, but yet more people are killed in one year by police than all the mass shootings combined. and no this is not a cop bashing post.

Exactly.laugh "We hold some truths to be self evident!" --metalwing


Again, if you want to debate about what the Constitution does or doesn't say, then quote the Constitution. Not the Declaration of Independence, which NO party has ever been willing to vote into having any legal standing in the U.S.





You want to make debate rules while breaking standardized debate rules.

I know exactly where my quotes came from and I did not say that my "truths" comment came from the Constitution. Nice try. However, it's meaning is well in context.

You deleted my actual quote and discussion from the Constitution and then claimed I needed to use quotes (which actually isn't required when discussing the history and context).

You set up a "straw man" argument to shoot down without making ANY discussion on the actual point I made ... which is backed up by many scholars of the Constitution. Perhaps you should study the topic before making yourself an expert.

If you don't know what "well regulated" meant during that period, you don't know the intent of the amendment. Period.
