Question: What would be Batman's stance on gun control?

[Fantasyartist]

Personally in the light of events like Columbine High School and the VT massacre, I believe he would be very much in favour of it( I doubt if he would swallow the NRA's b.s. that "if you outlaw guns, then only outlaws will possess guns), and of course he was the original victim of gun violence(the murder of his parents)

Anybody think as I do?

As much as I like Batman, I'm sure he would be pig-headed on this issue and say yes to massive gun control. But if he were to research it, he might make a more educated decision. There is a big push in this country to take away guns, and you have to wonder why. As freedoms are disappearing here, it's kind of scary to see gun control being pushed, and even more so that many people simply go along with whatever they're told is best for them. Obviously, I'm pretty biased on this issue, but if anyone wants to read into gun control and other interesting stuff, just go to http://infowars.com/

It's kind of scary that the every American Administration can be held hostage by one political lobby group and a minority culture of deluded and ignorant people.


But yeah Batman hates guns because they make it too easy to kill people, and since he doesn't really give a damn about personal liberties in preventing death and destruction I'm sure he'd support gun control.

Oh don't be such a spastic.

Personal liberties even in killing people by accident?

Batman would probably look to blow up the gun manufacterers like he did Axis chemicals in the first flick.

 

[Comic Book Boy]

No contest, Batman hates guns and would see them all gone.

Not sure what you're getting at...do you mean Batman sometimes kills people by accident, or that gun deaths are often accidents (which is true), but how does that lessen the destructive impact of gun prevalence in American society? The number of guns in America should be reduced simply for the number of people that die from them...accidents or no. They're mostly reckless and senseless killings that would be prevented in guns were not so commonly available.

One common arguement is that knives and other weapons would replace guns in violent incidents....but still it's much harder to kill someone with a close range weapon and a person is less likely to kill out of split-second anger, fear or desperation without a gun at the ready.

A girl last week here in Rome was killed with an umbrella in the eye in the subway. Another guy two days ago trying to shoot to a man he had an argument with, killed a little girl instead. T
Gun control won't eliminate violent deaths, but they will be strongly reduced, I agree with you.

There's a very good movie on the guns industry subject: "Lord of War".
It's just something I would like to suggest for watching.

The Nic Cage flick?

 

[batmaluco]

Yes.

 

[Crowforge]

Batman hates guns, what with the whole parents being murdered thing, I'd imagine he'd have a pretty strong stance on gun control.

 

[crazy monkey]

Hmmm... What is the Batman's stance on gun control? The fanboys want to know. So, let's go straight to the man himself for the answer:

There you have it, folks. Uncle Bruce sez, He who draweth the gun, receiveth the b1tchslap. !

-- END!

 

[InsaneDwayne]

I'm stilll not convinced.
