If I did not answer the question, then you can tell me what the problem is? If I have not answered his question, then clearly step one exists. What is it? It does not exist. America has no interest - will not even discuss in government - step one.
read that out loud and tell me that you're not falling down drunk or clinically insane.

so are you saying that what the average citizen can do is..... to realize that there is a problem? And that the problem is that we have guns?


is that what you're tryng to force out of your quivering, undulating, and insanity fogged brain and cucumber stained fingers?

You tell me. Do we have a problem? You tell me? Demonstrate that step one - acknowledging the problem exists. You posted because you have an opinion. So tell me. Does a problem exist and what is it?

yes.....the problem is that people can't face the reality that we're still subject to the 'survival of the fittest' effect. It's something that we like to tell our selves that we've moved past as a society.....but we haven't.

SoLimberjim completely ignored the question. The question was not about survival of the fittest. The question is whether America even has a problem - such as created schooyard massacres.

Lumberjim's evasive answer demonstrates my point exactly. First thing they did in Britain was to not do what Lumberjim has done. Americans will not even do step one. Columibine - yawn. Students are massacred in VA - one bullet every 3 seconds for nine minutes - and Lumberjim will not even acknowledge a problem exists let alone tell us what that problem is.

Someone be so violently armed as to fire a round every three seconds for nine minutes - and the outcry is how loud? Crickets.

Welcome to the days of Nam. When the president is a crook, then the nation was just as polarized even over marijuana. Crime increased. Civility disappears as American cities even burned. Even on the USS America off the coast of Nam - a riot. 85% of all problems are directly traceable to top management. Our leaders have long been crooks as to even protect Enron and slave labor in Saipan. And it will become worse. Maybe not in the Cellar. But yes, in the nation.

The attacks on Duck Duck for simply noting a reality - no different than what happened to students returning home from a Kent State massacre. That is another lesson from Nam. Corrupt leaders create increased anti-social behavior (actions based in emotions rather than facts) years later.

Notice today how many now respond as Rush Limbaugh has been preaching for years. Notice how we are so quick to blame immigrants even for increased crime. Same trend occurred 30 years ago.

ah, fuck you, redneck.

tw, don't capitalize my name.

and I believe that you were the one that the question was posed to, and evaded answering it....Instead choosing to spin around in circles flinging poo and condescension in all directions.

I answered the question quite clearly. I don't think that the problem is what kind of weapons we have. If this kid had not had a gun..he would have had a bomb. or a bow and arrow.....or a virus or whatever....

you suck.

The question - does a problem exist - required a yes or no answer. The question - if a problem does exist, then what is it - also was ignored.

How does one identify those who know emotionally - not logically? Note the words: "fuck you" & "you suck". Even little things such as capital letters will set off some emotional people.

Again, the answer to xoxoxoBruce's question is demonstrated by lUMBERjIM. He avoids a 'yes or no' answer. And he avoids defining a problem. I guess no problem exists. Yawn. Let's start a pool - which school will next have a massacre?

Britain addressed and solved this problem. Step one - British acknowledged a problem exists. How many have answered this yes or no question: does a problem exist? Americans cannot even provide an answer to that simple 'yes or no' question after '32 dead in Vir-gin-ia' (it needs some music).

Denial. Step one to a solution cannot even happen in The Cellar. Instead he posts profanity - personal attacks on the messenger.

Clearly the Chinese are putting something in our food. Where did I put that aluminum foil? Where is the cat?

lUmBeRjIm … LumBERjim …. LUMBER JIM. Soon the nation will be in civil war. 85% of all prolems are directly traceable to top management - so we can shoot more school kids and blame others? No. Let's blame LUmbER-jIM. That way, we need not even answer that very first question - does a problem exist?

Liar. The questions were;
