Oh the irony.
The fact is [that?] dealing drugs in a bad neighborhood, regularly, without a gun is suicide.
rofl Do you seriously hear yourself? THEN PICK ONE OF THE OTHER 1 MILLION POSSIBLE CAREER PATHS.
Now if you don't believe people should die for breaking the law or dealing drugs, how can you support that law? Just because it's a "rule we need for society"? How will a drug dealer living another day threaten society?
I miss points? How can you not manage to be able to distinguish between: legalization & felonious acts with firearms? Can you grasp this concept? Currently, selling pounds of pot is felonious.
What if he pulls his gun and shoots some crazy fuck trying to kill him, will our society collapse?
Do you understand that it is "the crazy fuck" trying to kill people that this law intends to target and hopefully either a) disuade him from bringing his gun to that drug deal in the first place or b) already been used to seperate this individual from society. The guy in the original article, was being fucking FILMED selling drugs, right? What a brilliant individual. I'm sure there are a lot of families of dead cops that will protest right along side of you 'advocates for arming criminals'. Oh wait, let me guess, cops are all scum and should die, right? American Police Officers are the modern-day equivalent to the GESTAPO, I know 8(. What a joke.
But one thing interesting about it is that you're so concerned about everyone being given a gun. Well, anyone who really wants a gun can get one now.
Yes, and people who have demonstrably shown that they're responsible enough to own one, that don't go around shooting people for no reason, don't bring them to drug deals, don't rob banks with them, they get to keep their guns to protect themselves from the FUCK OFF'S like you. That's the way it is, probably the way it always will be, and if you don't like it, GET THE FUCK OUT OF AMERICA or work to actively change the law. :D
I think people should be charged with using a gun in a crime if they actually, y'know, USE THE GUN IN THE CRIME.
No grey area, sorry. Black and white. Drug dealers while dealing, people under the influence of drugs, and people who commit felonies don't get to make decisions that CAN POSSIBLY endanger the life's people who do. It's called "law and order". It's an important piece of having a functional "society". It's a necessity.
When you give some guy a speeding ticket and he has a gun on him they don't charge him with speeding with a gun (gasp) and put him away for the rest of his life. It's seperate charges
Ok, now I do have to inquire as to your age. You understand the difference between a speeding ticket and a f e l o n y, right? You understnad that, in Washington, up to 40 grams (slightly over an ounce) of pot is NOT a felony, right? Most states have similiar guidelines.
Distorted, I applaud you. I'm not quite sure you realize it, but you've just single handedly validated another extremely relevant point in regard to drug dealing in conjuction with guns.

But you can't use a gun to sell drugs. You can use it to mug someone, you can use it shoot someone, you can use it to threaten someone, but those are all completely seperate crimes.
:D Congratulations.
