One of the oldest laws on the books
Is Murder.

The code of Ur-Nammu is the oldest known code of laws to exist. It was first written in Sumerian in 2100 BC. It prohibited murder.


So a new law written in 2012 or 2013 against guns is going to prohibit murder?

Well, aside from being correct, that murder is already illegal, it's immaterial.

My comment was in response to your calling ANYTHING posted here dumb.

Well, if gun laws work, and DC has all kinds of gun laws, then why does the White House have bullet proof glass? Why does Obama drive in a bullet proof car? No one is going to shoot at him because we have laws prohibiting it - at least that's the reasoning libs want me and everyone else to adhere to.

It is stupid because nobody has said new gun laws would prohibit murder.

So you mean to tell me that no one shoots at him because he's surrounded by guns and it would mean certain death? Possibly before meeting their objective?

Nah, it's that sign that says you can't have guns here.

So will you admit that shooting one's mouth off about new gun laws is just some politician cashing in on a tragedy and won't really do any good?
