    This would be like the government taking our cars so we cant drink and drive.
    I suppose if you believe the government and all the powers that be, including lobbyists, is interested in some type of all encompassing, unilateral civillian weapons ban, which we're not seeing at all.

    Just because theyre not taking your freedom in one large swoop does not mean theyre not taking your freedom.


    I am 1000% in favor of any and every penalty imaginable for people who use guns to commit crime. I think any use of a gun should carry the same sentencing as murder. If you rob a bank occupied with 45 people, dont fire a shot, dont harm anyone..... that should be 45 counts of attempted murder. I support EVERY action to punish criminals......

    i support ZERO action to punish law abiding citizens. Especially when you cannot prove that you will accomplish anything by doing so and have no examples to reference. Every city with gun control has a higher rate of crime. Every country with gun control has a higher rate of crime. They keep cherry picking points and ignoring reality......

    If you banned corvettes tomorrow because of street racing..... yet every former corvette owner goes out and buys a mustang to continue street racing... you cant say "the streets are clear of corvette street racing" and pretend that's a point to be made. I keep hearing about England's gun violence vs the US..... yeah.... they traded gun violence for rape and robbery.... accomplished nothing.
