  1. Even if slightly more people were killed in vehicles, do you really think 41,000 gun related deaths a year is acceptable? In less than a year and a half Americans kill more Americans with guns than were killed in Viet Nam.
  2. Guns killed 45,000 and there is no registry in Florida.
  3. People make choices and have to live with the consequences.
  4. Maybe he endorsed Biden just because he couldn't stand the thought of another four years of Trump. That doesn't make him a lib, it just makes him sane.
  5. They were never intended for the arctic and neither were the Oberon class which they replaced.
  6. How can we claim sovereignty if we can't at least show a presence let alone enforce it? We already know US, Russian and British subs operate up there. Probably others as well. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/canadian-submarines-not-part-of-international-arctic-under-ice-exercise-1.4699208
  7. Who's talking about invasion?
  8. Well, one would be that we don't have a navy that can operate in our Arctic during winter but several other countries do.
  9. Diesel electrics can only operate under ice as long as their batteries last, that's probably why they don't go there. Nuke's have no such limitations. The Swedes have a class of subs powered by Stirling Engines that can stay submerged for weeks. They are also super quiet. During an exercise off San Diego, one of them penetrated a US carrier group and could have sunk the carrier. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotland-class_submarine
  10. During the Cold War we had an armoured brigade stationed in Germany.
  11. Yes, particularly ones that can operate under ice.
  12. They weren't "junked", they were only in service four years before they were put in storage after the Brits decided to go all nuclear.
  13. Djokavic was subject to the same rules as everyone else. Countries weren't about to give someone a special exemption just so they can play tennis. I respect his position but he had nothing to complain about.
  14. 45,000 died from firearm related incidents. You want to compare total vehicle deaths to only gun homicides. Grow up child, people aren't that stupid.
  15. True to form, yell louder and insult more. Too funny. And pathetic.
  16. He died because there was a knee on his neck for more than eight minutes.
  17. If there is no registry, nothing is registered. Still the child. Do you really think your childish insults bother me? Keep them up, they say a lot more about you than me.
  18. Chauvin had his knee on Floyd's neck for eight minutes. He had no pulse when he finally removed it. That's homicide.
  19. So where is the registry? You link just says sales must be recorded, it doesn't say anything about a registry. Maybe you should read what you link.
  20. So where is the Florida gun registry?
  21. Nice word salad but nowhere there does it say guns are registered.
