This is a way cooler solution ;)

It's a win-win situation ;)

Countries will think twice about going to war against us ;)

32% of Republicans and 65% of Democrats see gun violence as a very big problem

No, drunk driving is a bigger problem. Let's apply some of those gun rules to alcohol and see how that pans out.

• a federal database of alcohol sales

• laws to prevent the mentally ill from buying alcohol (they are crazy enough as it is ;)

• ban high alcohol content drinks (men will have to rely more on roofies to get laid ;)

• people on federal watch lists should not be allowed to buy alcohol (don't do the crime if you can't stay dry ;)

• allow teachers to carry alcohol in K-12 schools (they need a way to unwind ;)

• alcohol should be banned for everyone except law enforcement (maybe they'll shoot fewer minorities or miss more when they do shoot ;)

Out of the top 25 states with the most gun-related deaths per capita, 21 of them voted Republican, and 4 voted Democrat in the 2016 election.

The Democrats should just STFU about guns until they have enough numbers to win back the white house ;)

OK. You obviously feel strongly about this so I guess we can make an exception an make you an honorary conservative ;)

It's not a question. It is a statement. ;)

There's some lighthearted banter and no name calling. ;)

It's true!!! ;)

What I don't understand is that most serial killers are Democrats. Maybe we should make it illegal for Democrats to own guns. ;)

On the other hand, I have five more fingers ;)

First of all, Luke lost a hand the first time he went up against a real challenge ;)

And you don't have to feel bad about it because they are going to die eventually anyway ;)

I think you're taking this debate a little too seriously ;)

So...., keep the productive illegals and deport the lazy ones? Send Trump a tweet, quick! ;)

I know, right? I don't even know what I'll post next ;)

The entertainment value alone is enough for me ;)

Here..., hold my beer and watch this ;)

Well..., what would be ;)

A drug dealer will give you a free sample ;)

Ok ;)

Maybe they should just raise the age on gun ownership. If teens can't own guns until after high school, then they won't be able to shoot up their high school ;)

The pedulum just swung the other way ;)

I am trying to not be so predictable ;)

Dude..., I intended this to be a joke debate ;)

Trump directed the Department of Justice to not enforce the Migratory Bird Act. This basically makes it open season for migratory birds. His reasoning? Apparently, they amount to illegals crossing our border ;)

Why hasn't Trump thought about this yet? ;)

Sounds good to me ;)

So..., if you go into a bar and some dude is buying drinks for everybody, you wouldn't partake ;)

OoooKaaaayyyyy...., I think you're taking this debate way too seriously ;)

Think of sin as a debt. That debt is paid for, so.... ;)

But those "immediate methods" you describe do not fix any of the problems posed by poor people. If anything, those methods exasperate the problem. ;)

If you disagree...., you are probably a poor person. ;)

Just saying ;)

Let them eat cake ;)

We can either reach for the stars or let the plebs drag us down ;)

Negative energy begets more negative energy ;)

I think you're taking this debate way too seriously ;)

; )

Half the people on this site fall under that category when you consider their posts ;)

People with split personality should be allowed to marry themselves ;)

Only if they have a split personality ;)

It's a dirty job. But someone has to do it. It ain't going to beat itself ;)

Anything goes ;)

Oh, yeah..., you like that... don't you ;)

Especially if you talk dirty while you're doing it ;)

I could not agree with more ;)

So..., apparently you don't need ability to be president ;)

The last few presidents have proven the old adage that anyone can be president ;)

Embarasing ;)

Those clowns don't know what they're doing ;)

North Korea crap can't compete against Good Ol' American crap. Wait..... ;)

One liners. A smiley. Move on. ;)

That sounds a lot harder than what I do ;)

Why provide a well reasoned argument when you can just cut to the chase ;)

Does a wooden straw have any holes? ;)

If she's not a killer, why do they call her Killery? ;)

Not according to James Meredith ;)

Killery strikes again ;)

If it had a hole, you could not get enough suction to draw the liquid from the cup to your mouth.

That statement depends on where the hole is and how big it is.

However, it is interesting that you say that a straw can have a hole. Tell me then, does a wooden straw have a hole(s)? ;)

So says James Meredith ;)

So..., the sheath is not solid ;)

One hole ;)

The law is meant to maintain the status quo. The rule of law is tyranny ;)

Merry Christmas..., tough guy ;)

There's always one in the crowd ;)
