You crack me up. You would be shivering down in a basement waiting for just the right moment to beg for mercy from the troops and tell them you are loyal to China.

No but people false advertising is illegal, and so is paying off medical experts and government officials to allow you to sell a food product that is deadly. That is not free market capitalism, it is mafia gangsterism.

Actually that's exactly free market capitalism, anything limiting such things requires government intervention. If you don't believe me, look up the interesting history of patent medicine.

Really, it looks like a bunch of crap aimed at the lowest common denominator to make the most money possible, as one would expect of the free market.

Look up statistics on the use of legally concealed weapons for crimes, all crimes, not just fight escalating to fire fight. It does not happen "all the time". It almost never happens. Except in the Hollywood version of reality. You like a lot of action movies, Steve?

Never happens. Surely having guns floating around when someone goes postal[^] is not a good thing. Only in action movies you you reckon? I find myself wondering what movies you watch.

But if you flood society with 'legal' guns, you make it easier for criminals to get them.

Do you have any statistics on the mythically common occurence of US gun owners shooting to defend their life or property ? If it does keep your crime rates lower, why are they so high still ? 'The wrong hands have them' is a furphy, as if flooding society makes no difference, because criminals can just pray to the gun fairy and get guns that way.

somehow he forgot that in a completely free market, there is no limitation to trade, not even for false advertising. "Let the buyer beware."

No it isn't, because they are paying off and infiltrating government regulatory agencies. This is what happens when you give power over the markets to the government.

In a free market system, it is still illegal to violate other people's property and to commit fraud.

According to the CDC, the number of accidental shooting deaths in 2006, the last year they have numbers, was 642. They do not seem to keep track of how many of those were the result of a registered firearm being used. You're making a different distinction, 'killed by someone with a permit'. This would exclude, for example, if a man has a permit and his son plays with the gun. However, if that happens, it's a death caused by the policy of letting people own firearms, so I think it's still meaningful. Please explain how you can only find one death in the space of years, when the CDC can find 5,150 from 2000 to 2006 ( I'm making some assumptions on your use of the word 'years', their data goes before 2000 ), and doesn't seem to track which guns were registered. What's your source of data ? Knock yourself out[^]

The data for that probably just doesn't exist. Most states do not require firearms to be registered. If I buy one from a dealer they will run a background check and have me take a little true/false test. Most the questions are along the lines of "Are you crazy?", "Are you stalking someone?", "Are you on drugs?" etc. If I buy the gun from a private party, none of this happens. Permitting issues really only apply if I want to carry a gun concealed in my pocket, etc. Most every place you can carry a gun concealed with a permit you can carry the gun openly without one. Open carry just tends to raise a lot more eyebrows.

Government regulatory agencies = Government having power over the markets Companies infiltrating these agencies = Markets having power over the government So let's see... Regulation is against the free market, right? But without regulation, there's no way to prevent fraud, which you're also against... Make up your mind. Your opinions are self-contradictory.

No, it is illegal to commit fraud in a free market system, just as it is to steal or kill people. Get it? Got it? Good. Fucking dumbass shit. You are either really stupid, intentionally ignorant, and or a jackass.
