We need a ban on Assault Telekinesis and High-Capacity fire starting!


We need a ban on Assault Telekinesis, NO ONE other than the government and police need such a weapon and have no use for it! They can easily be turned into Fully automatic Telekinesis! If we don't, many will die. No regular citizen needs an Assault Telekinesis.

Also, no sane person other than police and military do not need and have NO use for High-Capacity fire starting without having to reload (re-visualize). We need to limit and put a ban on these High-Capacity fires. No more than 3 inches of fire is needed for a Pyro to start a fire -- and if they do, they probably shouldn't being doing pyrokinesis in the first place.

Note: this was complete satire! I am Pro-gun and come from a family of guns, bullets run in our blood and veins, and I am proud to announce I am a gun owner and Psion. I live in Texas where shooting guns and owning guns is a way of life -- it is everything we do! Especially in the Summer time, and all year round too. Not just limited to seasons. Especially hunting seasons. We live off guns, especially where I live here in Temple, Texas.

What was I trying to get out/prove here? Well, showing how crazy the anti-gun crowd has become and how gun grabbers and the media have been demonizing guns and gun owners countless times, especially these so called "Assault Weapons" everybody keeps talking about and screaming to be banned. And I thought I'd blend psionics in it too, especially because I am a part of both! What was I also trying to prove by blending Psionics into the gun debate which is almost dead, especially on the anti-gun crowd?

Well 1, for fun. And 2nd, to prove that by banning something simply does not make it stop or go away, criminals and street thugs will always find and get access to guns --- NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO! If you banned every gun in the book, registered, you would still have only criminals and the government armed. It only hurts citizens. Just like banning Telekinesis would be no good, for multiple reasons. So, I brought telekinesis into to show how banning guns would do just as good and trying to ban psionics... NOTHING!

Sorry if I got off task, it's been a while since I've been on. I was just trying to prove a point.

Even though in our country, wielding guns in public would seem absurd, still, Hutchison (the tinkerer known by Hutchison effect) proved the point for me a while ago.

Firing a gun, shooting an arrow or chopping firewood is pretty much pk. Learned it in service, when I had to shoot a target without being able to see it properly. You shoot in your mind before and after pulling the trigger, then let the hit manifest itself.

ChosunNinja demonstrated this well by throwing nails, shuriken at targets he couldn't see. Can't look up those clips now, due to a VPN tunnel.

If we can stay stay respectful and civilized while giving our opinion and listening the opinions of others, I see no reason against having political discussions if people are interested. There's nothing wrong with discourse that gets people worked up and emotional, as long as we're open-minded and respectful about it. Debating these sorts of things is extremely important for societal progress across all cultures and groups. Without these talks, groups get divided even further in the type of black and white thinking that further cements prejudice, hatred, and "us vs them" thinking. It creates walls between groups, and a general misunderstanding that leads to anger, hatred, and violence. That said, this topic should probably be moved to the "Hey What's Happening - no topical conversation necessary" sub-forum.

From the studies I've seen, countries where everyone has guns have less crime than those that don't. If someone wants to go on a killing spree, whether guns are legal or not they're still going to be able to acquire them. Just like making drugs illegal doesn't stop gangs from getting them. In fact, keeping drugs illegal is what pushes the cost so high and makes dealing so profitable for gangs and cartels. On the same note, I think that if we made all sorts of guns and drugs legal I don't think everyone would turn into a murderer and a drug addict. Typically, the people who are going to do these things will do them despite the legality. Keeping them illegal is not only en extreme waste of money, it keeps gangs and cartels in business by giving them extremely high profit margins. Regulation of the drugs would destroy this, in my opinion. Not only that, but the war on drugs (I'm speaking of the U.S.A. by the way), in some ways unfairly targets African Americans, putting more in jail than whites for similar crimes.


Just my opinion!

For a second I almost thought we were being trolled. Thankfully I kept enough cool to finish reading the rest of the post.

I am pro-gun as well. And pro-telekinesis of course!

Goulap did a wonderful job of summing it up for the most part.

Sussch, I remember what your talking about. Those demonstrations were awesome! He barely even looked. He is good.

P.S. The left's push for stronger gun controls isn't over I hear. I just read about something yesterday (i think) that said democrats are at it again, trying for another push. Not really good with politics. Too many divides and subdivides for me to keep track who is who, and what they stand for.

Like, Republicans and democrats, I know a little on their differences. But Liberals and conservatives as well as any other branches/subdivisions that I don't completely understand what they stand for. Anyone able to clear it up a little for me? The news doesn't help much.

Anyways,

Thanks!

Have fun!

I thought this was a PK forumwink

People in different regions, experience different cultures & have different needs & challenges to cope with. Texas, is not Chicago; Japan, is not Estonia. It's easy to make a judgement from ones own cultural comfort zone, without bothering to walk in anothers shoes, & we are not all wearing sneakers, believe me.

One of the things that makes this forum special to me, is that it's a safe & supportive place to develop as a psion, without the persecution one can experience in the rest of society. Clearly people can have strong political & emotional views on either side of a polarizing political issue, but this could easily descend into a flame war which has nothing to do with psychokinesis. Then before you know it; the forum is not such a fun safe place to develop:)

I think this should be a politcal free zone.

Well said Owl :)

When it comes to mind and spirit science PKers and Spiritualists alike are still suffering from crazy prejudice. Just last week a Woman and her daughter were killed by a Mob on accusation of Witchcraft.

Its psychikensis... Not political section. If there was open discusion section that be different. I can talk calmly about politcal views. However this is not the section for it.

I agree with Goulap, owltwelve, Grengoshi and I'm confused as to what should or should not be discussed on this forum.

Because openly discussing all these subjects is especially important during the current "interesting times". On the other hand, the point of this forum is to be a family, regardless of our origin, culture or our political, religious views.

@Shirak: Where did it happen?

Well, there are no shortage of places to argue over decisive political issues, but this forum is quite unique in the world. I'm not saying that people shouldn't be able to express themselves, but creating a hostile environment on the only forum of it's kind, arguing a subject which doesn't even relate to psionics could easily become sad waste of a rare gem.

I have passionate views which I restrain myself from expressing, because I know that some on this forum find this place to be a refuge from painful lives. Some want to learn about subjects which they have difficulty finding information on elsewhere. Some like a scene from a movie; really do experience persecution for who they are as a psion.

It's at least worth it to be mindful before venting:)

We should have a section for times, cultures, and current events. But strict rules and guide lines.

It could be possible that the reason why some of the topics have been popping up might be BECAUSE we feel safe here; where all other forums erupt into flame wars.

Just a thought though.

I concur with everyone here. I wouldn't mind talking about them, but also I could easily see it go out of hand quite quickly without much notice.

Anyways,

Have fun!
