Gun owners always want to be responsible. So why is contributory negligence never used in gun crime? For example--who owned the gun used by the 17 and 15 year-old who shot the baby in GA? If the gun owners that allowed their weapons to be used in crime where held accountable--we would see far less careless storage of guns. i.e. Just because a gun is stolen--the gun owner is still responsible because their inability to secure the weapon allowed for the theft.

In addition, there is the link between gun ownership and suicide--the majority of all gun deaths are self inflicted. How about periodic mental health screenings for all gun owners? Maybe keep them from hurting themselves and others on the way out...

100,000 shootings a year, 30,000 deaths from those shootings, 17,000 of those are self inflicted. Anyone else think it is strange that those who most often use their gun efficiently, use it to end their own life? Sure doesn't seem too difficult to link gun ownership with a higher rate of mental health issues... i.e. the term gun nut is based in reality. And why discussion with them never work--crazy just doesn't think logically.

Sweatshop HD is such a crude and offensive name. The game simply needs to be renamed: Foxconn Fun or iFactory, maybe Making Apples...

Change your SSID to something like FBI Surveillance RTR or YouAreBeingLogged--you get the idea. Along the lines of the "WeCanHearYouHavingSex" SSID. Let him know you are on to him and the wise hacker will find a new mark.

Handbrakes sure better work at high speeds. Hurtling down I-95 toward NYC in an old Dodge pickup. Driving toward a toll booth, press the brakes and pedal drops to the floor with zero pressure. It was slam into a row of cars or use the emergency brake. Just like I learned in drivers ed back in the 80's--held up the brake release and slowly engaged the parking brake--viola. Was safely able to bring the car to stop in a matter of seconds realizing the regular brakes had failed. So give me a break--there should have been multiple ways to stop the car. The fact the guy could talk on the phone until the car ran out of gas just makes me think everyone involved was an idiot.

Read past the first few sentences--there is more in iOS 6.1 than iRadio. "came up with a tool that gives users deep system-level access to do things like install applications from third-party app stores, change the look and feel of iOS, and add new software features" Sounds like Go Launcher type stuff.

Yes automatic weapons have been around for a very long time. School shootings have been around since there were guns as well. But what we haven't had is a instant media coverage combined with easy access to weapons--now it seems a few of those crazy enough to commit suicide are wanting to inflict as much carnage as possible before offing themselves.

But you are touching on the biggest issue. Everyone agrees crazy people should not own guns. Every gun owner thinks they are sane. But if you buy a gun expecting the worst out of society--you are already crazy. As you have clearly illustrated with your thinking above--your thinking is not based in reality.

But you do make a great case that all gun owners should have mandatory psychiatric evaluations every year to determine if they are threat.

So how many Tic Tac packs will this thing cost?

Does the company have any rational why I would carry this device and presumably breath mints--instead of just breath mints?

Wouldn't a sane person simply pop in a Tic Tac if they wondered about bad breath versus taking the time to connect a device and run an app?

Probably a good time for this guy to start culling his friends list....

You are comparing the Oklahoma City bombing to a gallon of gasoline? Gasoline makes an effective bomb sure--but the conditions have to be controlled. Lots of schools have burned through the ages--it wasn't until recently that high capacity weapons became prolific. Back in the day you had to figure out how to build a bomb if you wanted to kill a lot of people. Now it is much quicker and easier. Get the weapons from a responsible, gun-owning family member and create mayhem.

Excellent material for a work of fiction, but I don't know of any recent real world incidents involving crazy people murdering mass numbers with a few gallons of gasoline. The last news story I remember was the nut that killed his son and himself when the social worker knocked on his door--and that was far more than a gallon gasoline.

Familiar with the SSAR-15 bump stock? $300 kit that is perfectly legal. Very effective at getting around the automatic fire ban.

Oh and wanted to toss out there--you don't need a background check to buy an assault rifle. Heck go to any gun show and you can get what you want with zero paperwork.

I'll jump in on this easy answer... First though--how stupid are you to make the guns versus gas argument?

Gas is so effective at killing people it is what every army in the world equips their soldiers with...

So when that building gets light--the people die at the speed of a bullet? I suspect folks in the building would have more than enough time to find an exit. Of course--if there is someone there with a gun at the entrance--pretty easy to start killing with a twitch of the finger.

But just to use your example--if you douse someone with gas and light the match. How many trigger squeezes can you get off before they die? I can squeeze of 30 rounds in an semi-auto AR-15 in less than 7 seconds--better be a mighty hot fire to kill you quicker...

Good advice--added a quick airplane mode toggle widget to the home screen on the wife and my phones for those times when you pass the phone off to the kid for a quick distraction.

At best it saves them from a little radiation exposure--at the worst--keeps them from answering that incoming call from your boss.

6 months--you are right. At 6 months the kid is lucky to be sitting up. If the toddler isn't old enough to unlock the device and navigate--I don't think they would absorb anything. That won't happen until 18 months and probably closer to two years. At six month--the block of wood is the way to go!
