CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy.
If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.
To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.
When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Yes. Why are YOU listening to that?? You seem to be an endless loop of Satanic sounding evangelical crazycrap! ;-)
Are you a chinaman …. or just another outlaw? ………… Maybe just another Russki using the internet to spread discontent among the largely colorblind left in the good ol' USA? Either way, the GNP will love you! I didn't like the GOP very much, but, I'd take them back. ;-)
I don't hate the police and I don't wanna be gunless. I want to weed out the trigger-happy few in police uniforms, weed out the IDIOTS that are allowed under NRA Rules to BUY as many guns as they wish, do MORE than "think and pray" about those unlucky enough to get in the way OF those idiots.
I'm quite sure, if we had fewer idiots with guns, there would be fewer "trigger-happy" cops, anyway! With so many around, few even WANT to be cops any more … they're OUTGUNNED! We have to settle for some who might not be so "stable" …. like we had to for President. :-)
Hey fool, your Democrat Party wants to take your guns! Why do you repeat their deception and make it sound like they are just trying to prevent criminals from having guns?
YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTE FOOL TO KEEP HOLDING THE LEFT'S WATER, AND VOTING FOR THE VERY POLITICIANS WHO WILL TAKE YOUR GUNS!!
The NRA knows that when you give these anti gun control fanatics an inch, they will take a mile. They are already admitting they want to take our guns, fool!
The GOP has no problem with stopping criminals from getting guns.
Give an inch, take a mile. Exactly what the anti-abortion people do.
"They are already admitting they want to take our guns." FOOL! There are a VERY FEW NUTS that want to do that, the same as there are a FEW NUTS that would stop abortion under ANY condition!
Assault weapons are a bit different, there are MANY who want to "take" them BY BUYING THEM BACK! And many of THEM are NRA MEMBERS! MANY who WANT reasonable gun regulation ARE ALSO NRA MEMBERS! Over 60% of NRA members WANT reasonable regulation! (Before they have there guns taken away because they wouldn't allow it! :-)!
"The GOP has no problem with stopping criminals from getting guns." I believe you, but, the GOP doesn't exist anymore! To the "GNP", they just give that statement LIP SERVICE and DO NOTHING to prevent it …. except put more GOOD guys on the street with guns! The difference between a good guy and a bad guy IS ONE BAD DAY! ONE BAD STATEMENT, ONE BAD LOSS OF A JOB, ONE BAD NIGHT WITH HIS WIFE (OR her husband :-)! Do you, as a FOOL, expect someone to walk up and say "I'm a criminal … sell me a gun"!??? Well, fool, what do you suggest they do about that?
Not really. They fire more bullets and are (frequently) less accurate. Those are the differences.
In the UK, when our government looked at the data after the Dunblane Massacre, it showed that handguns were the real problem. Probably because they can be easily concealed from view. In any case, I'm confident the data will say a similar thing in America.
I'm not a fool and the reason I'm not wasting another second with your denial of what the Democrat Party is trying to do! Their goal to take our guns....FOOL!
That is clearly not their goal when most democrats on this site tell you they don't want to take away everyone's guns right to your idiot face. If you watched something other than Fox News and read something other than the bible for once in your insanely unintelligent life maybe you would know about a little something called nuance and see that democrats and ESPECIALLY the left as a whole don't all think the same things.
If you hate the police & wanna be gunless, you're an idiot
You are the idiot and that's a fact.
When you arm yourself you give police exactly the excuse they need to use excessive force to contain you. Your implication that the best way to deal with police is to shoot them or threaten them with a gun qualifies you as the type of idiot which is seen probably only once every thirty or forty years on this planet.
Hay Brit if you don't take ya no likings to my guns then come get them. But 1st you may have to figure out i got the 2nd.You may have to contact the Global UN Gun Force to confirm your fears.
When you arm yourself you give police exactly the excuse they need to use excessive force to contain you.
I'll state what is obvious to us common sense types. Police can plant a gun on you as the excuse they need.
Your implication that the best way to deal with police is to shoot them or threaten them with a gun
No one mentioned threatening the police with a gun. The gun is for you to protect yourself from police who threaten your life with a gun.
qualifies you as the type of idiot which is seen probably only once every thirty or forty years on this planet.
I get it now. If the police pin a black man down, beat him half to death, plant a gun on him, and shoot him dead, your logic is to take it like an unarmed man should and shut the fuck up. You're a damned genius. You'd make a perfect Nazi.
No one mentioned threatening the police with a gun.
I didn't say you "mentioned" it you sophist retard. I said you implied it. Learn to read. If you do not plan to threaten the police with a gun then can you explain why you have opened a "debate" informing people they are "idiots" for being unarmed when they talk to the police?
If you do not plan to threaten the police with a gun then can you explain why you have opened a "debate" informing people they are "idiots" for being unarmed when they talk to the police?
I plan on shooting police that I saw just shoot an unarmed black man. Good thing I was armed.
If the police pin a black man down, beat him half to death, plant a gun on him, and shoot him
So you want black people to shoot police because of a paranoid fantasy you made up in your head?
Get off this site you evil piece of shit. You hate black people so one can only conclude you are intentionally trying to have them killed by waving guns at police officers.
If they just watched them kill their unarmed friend or neighbor
So all the people who haven't just watched their unarmed friend killed by the police have no reason to be armed? Then congratulations on debunking your own argument you moronic fucking retard.
Your proposition insures that black people can do nothing as a witness to brutality or murder happening right in front of them. Your hatred for minorities runs very deep.
Black people can do nothing if qualified officers who have sworn to uphold the law decide to start murdering people in cold blood, no. Equally, black people can do nothing if the government decides to nuke them. Hence, by your very own logic, black people are "idiots" for not stockpiling tactical nuclear missiles.
Fuck off you Nazi. God I hate you so much. You are as evil as you are stupid, which is goddamned very!!
It's common sense to shoot a cop that you just saw shoot an unarmed man.
But this is a fantasy you made up in your own head. You want black people to shoot at cops because of something which you made up in your head and are pretending is real?
99 times out of 100 (at least) the police do not shoot unarmed men, so on top of being a retard who makes up fantasies to excuse why he is trying to have black people exterminated by the police, you clearly do not understand probability or maths. You are intentionally trying to make minorities paranoid and violent because you hate them and, if you succeed, will be back here next week proclaiming about how black people are so violent.
Yes I agree. What kind of fool would take guns away from law abiding citizens when we witness constant mass shootings where no one had a gun for self defense.
Police get to the carnage after many people are dead!
Finally, we agree on something! "What kind of fool would take guns away from law abiding citizens...? Certainly not a "liberal"!
"Police get to the carnage after many people are dead!" Absolutely! That's why we want to "relieve" them of weapons that can kill SO QUICKLY! Give the police a CHANCE! An assault weapon with a firing rate of 500 to 1000 (and more) shots per minute gives a cop in a car with 300HP little chance if he is over a mile away, in traffic or not! Get the firing rate down to where people at least have time to dive for cover and it will REDUCE the "carnage"!
FromWithin … you MAY be getting the message! :-) ;-) ;-) (yes, that's laughable ;-)
The Democrat actually typed this : Finally, we agree on something! "What kind of fool would take guns away from law abiding citizens...? Certainly not a "liberal"!
Hey stupid check with Ralph Northam and Virginia Democrats and get back to me you brain dead dummy.
I am neither "Ralph Northam [OR a] Virginia Democrat" I'm a normal liberal Democrat without a personal agenda, just common sense. I won't be getting back to you.
I suggest you give their feelings a bit of compassion, th.…….. um ... maybe consider that they've lost a few friends to the NRA [not working] agenda? To the "brain dead dummies" that refuse to LISTEN to common sense.... and, yes, I actually typed this. ;-)
Democrat you don't want your Democrat Party taking guns from law abiding citizens yet you are told not to look at Virginia. That does sum up your stupidity.

I think the "law-abiding citizens" phrase you guys keep putting on long term repeat is grounded in the fallacy that you can't purchase a gun within the law if you intend to use it maliciously. You in fact can do this, and a great many people who go on to use guns maliciously are "law-abiding citizens" when they initially buy their weaponry.
I have told you many times how the Democrats in New York passed a new gun law called the Safe Act.
Guess what the law called for? It originally made it illegal for any homeowner to have hunting rifles, that held more than seven rounds, in their homes! THESE WERE NOT ASSAULT RIFLES... FOOL LIAR!
Democrats ARE after law abiding citizens guns and it's not about so called assault rifles! Legal hunting rifles can easily hold more than seven rounds and Democrats declared they would be illegal!
