Silver, I respect your opinions above.
Believe me, I'm SCARED of the fact that I might have to take the life of another human being or other creature to save my own or my loved ones, but that's life and it's FAR from being a perfect world.
In a perfect world we wouldn't even have to talk our way out of problems, but this is the REAL world and the fact is that talking doesn't always help.
In a perfect world, cops would be there simply to protect the people and NOT stomp on their necks like the shitheads in the last video I posted above...it made me so sick I almost wanted to vomit....that guy called the cops to come help him and he was a little pissed that they took so long to get there, so they took him to the ground and nearly strangled him.

It's not just guns I have a problem with, it's weapons.
Why should I walk round my own neighbourhood in fear of people with guns?
And owning a gun myself would do little to dispel that fear.
So so happy that we have decent gun control here.
I'm the LAST guy with a gun that you should fear. I'm what they call a good guy (despite what some of you may think). I make my neighborhood a safer place.
You're totally missing the fact that the bad guys are the ones you need to fear...and THEY are the ones who don't give a shit about gun control laws.
True story: Right here in my town....
Just after the Aurora shootings a guy went to the local theater and someone saw his carry pistol....someone called the cops and they stopped the movie, turned on all the lights, and the cops asked whoever had a gun to stand up and take it to their vehicle...FOUR people stood up and ALL had carry permits.
My question to you is: Would a guy about to shoot a bunch of people have stood up and relinquished his weapon?
You don't really need to answer that because if you think "no," then you get it.
If you think "yes," you're only fooling yourself.
And, by doing so, the cops left the law-abiding citizens DEFENSELESS.

Not accusing you of being dishonest....just uninformed.....

If somehow we could destroy EVERY single gun on the planet, people would just make their own or, at the very least, just kill people by some other means.....notably explosives...which can be MUCH more dangerous and deadly. Leaving all the good people defenseless at the same time.
I hope you guys all watched the
Suzanna Gratia Hupp video I posted above, btw.
I'd like to see some comments on that.
