You make absolutely no sense. Why would 'law abiding citizens' report their guns are stolen if it would be legal to sell it? And in your rephrase statement, who are they selling it to? You mentioned "sell them illegally to criminals"....and selling guns to criminals is illegal. I have no idea what you are blabbering about.

You can't use logic or facts with gun nuts. Idiots claim that 'criminals will still get their guns' and that's a stupid statement on so many levels. First, it ignores statistics of countries that have greatly regulated guns in recent years. Second, such a statement is saying that regulating or banning anything is pointless. Why ban grenades & machine guns? Oh that's right, it does make it harder for criminals to obtain. Why put a speed limit? Because it actually does reduce speeding.

A knife isn't lethal if you are 15 feet away. If you claim that he can throw it, then why did they not shoot him the exact moment they they arrived? Officers encounter people with knifes often...they don't always shoot them. They use judgement based on distance and other factors. However, all this convo is moot if the cops didn't have a taser that could shoot 20 or 30 feet.

So criminals aren't importing their guns but rather are getting them from within the US. Think about what that means... means that smuggling guns INTO the US is much more difficult than getting the guns from within. I.E., if guns were banned in the US & criminals would have to get them from the cartels, it would be a much more difficult path for criminals. Otherwise, they would already be smuggling guns in. It's exactly what Blahb was saying. You are to ignorant on the subject matter to continue

True, we don't know all the details. I was arguing against someone saying tasers wouldn't work because it's short range and another person saying that lethal force must be used. I'm just laying out that if the guns had tasers that can shoot and if the deranged man isn't striking distance from civilians, why use lethal force?

And legalizing them would decrease gun shootings???

How short range, 3 feet? They look like they are close enough for most modern taser's with probes.

WTH? You know nothing about this. Do you really think guns are smuggled INTO the US? NO! The US is a leader in smuggling guns OUT....because guns are that easy to get here. Just google "Operation Fast and Furious". It was sting by the ATF to track guns being exported OUT of the US and to the Cartels. Most illegally owned guns from NYC are bought from Virginia and other southern states. These guns enter the illegal market through the legal American market. Educate yourself.

Seriously, you comprehend nothing. Guns are ILLEGAL for criminals. But because we have a legal and relatively unregulated gun market, it's extremely easy to get guns illegally in the US. If guns were highly regulated or banned, criminals would have to find other sources. Criminals buying guns that are smuggled in increases the chances they are caught & becomes a disincentive because of risk and costs. Should we make cocaine legal??

"law abiding citizens" will then report them stolen & then sell them ILLEGALLY to criminals? Perhaps you need to look up the definition of 'law abiding'. Also, this is already happening in LARGE numbers today. Its called straw purchases. Many of the guns confiscated in NYC were legally bought in Virginia (lax gun laws) then illegally sold. In Chicago, the same happens but the original gun purchase is from AL or MS. With current gun laws, it's extremely difficult to charge the person who sold it

Wait, you just said 'they were close enough'. So why would the police have gotten THAT close if that was stabbing distance? Police tasers can reach up to 30 ft, civilian type tasers can reach 15ft. They were less than 15 feet. They could have actually backed up further and still used the taser. I'm not following how you are defending not using a taser (assuming they have tasers).

Just shut up. Just shut up...you have no idea what you are talking about. All the congressional talks are about REGULATING guns. People will still have a right to a gun. You are stupid enough that you probably think putting speed limits on the roads or requiring auto insurance is the govt trying to take your car away.
