    Deadline for the No Items Tourney is in 3 days. Please contact [mod]Shadow Scyther[/mod] and get the match done, please.
    So lower the chances from slim to none? Yeah, makes sense.
    It's happened many times before.
    If you pop someone 5 times in the face, then I don't think they'll have time to do much more damage. You'll save a few people if you do it early. There are many reports of something like this happening.

    Also, "fun to fire" is a valid reason. It doesn't hurt anyone, not even yourself like doing drugs would. There are various shooting sports as well.
    "guns are not used for protection - a bulletproof vest is used for protection. if someone pulls a gun on you and you pull a gun on them, someone's more than likely going to get shot."
    Okay, so everyone should start wearing bulletproof vests everywhere they go? No. If some guy walks into a McDonalds with an illegal weapon or something and starting capping people, everyone's gonna die. If you have a concealed weapon permit, then you can stop the guy and save dozens of lives. If he doesn't have a gun? Pray that everyone else was wearing bulletproof vests or whatever. People will still get shot. But some will have their lives saved because Bob over there in the corner of the McDonalds pulled a gun on the bad guy.

    "a gun is always offensive - it has only one purpose, and that's to kill"
    That's not true. Guns are fun to fire. Who the hell would ever disagree with that? They're more fun than an airsoft gun, that's for sure. Millions of people have guns simply for the fun of target practice. And if they do have guns for self-defense, that's fine. They could still save a lot of people.

    "now, i mentioned crimes of passion in the previous paragraph. most murders are crimes of passion. do you think that a person is going to be as likely to try to shoot somebody if it will be expensive and difficult to obtain a gun? if they already have a gun or guns are easier to obtain, then they'd probably go for it."
    This goes back to the fact that if you implement stricter gun control, you're just keeping the good guys from getting the guns for self-defense. Crimes of passion? If someone is really passionate about something, they'll figure out a way to get what they believe in. Don't underestimate the power of the average psycho. People are going to get guns. Psychos do not care about the law.

    "also, i'm going to put this out here: most people don't want guns. if guns were illegal, i doubt most people would make an attempt to get any, in a similar way to drugs."
    Yes. If guns were illegal, most wouldn't make the attempt to get one. Then the small percentage of psychos are STILL going to get them and go on mass murdering sprees whilst the innocent civilians do not have any form of self-defense. If someone had had a concealed weapon in that movie theater in Colorado, they could've saved many people.

    Bottom line; and this is a fact. If stricter gun control is implemented, it will simply prevent the good people from having any form of self-defense. The bad guys will always get guns. It does not matter what the law says. They will kill people.

    I never thought I would have actually said this, but now that I know you watch (or at the very least have watched) pokecapn, I can say for sure that you have good taste.

    One thing you missed in your roulette tournament was that Sand Stream is also banned from UU, in addition to Drought and Snow Warning.

    Looks like an awesome tournament. Can't wait to play it.
