Which does not make it right. If a thief continues to steal even after being locked up, that doesn't mean you should too, just because the thief is able to get away with it.
i dont steal. im saying, since you know criminals will have their guns, why would you want to disarm the law abiding and leave only the bad guys with weapons?

Wrong. everyone SHOULD have to hop thru hoops to get them. You can not look on the street and see who is a law abiding citizen and who is a psychopath. At least these 'hoops' will attempt to weed out the bad from the good. It is a start.
criminals dont. just as they buy illegal drugs, just holla at ya homeboi and bam got a strap! Background checks for buying guns is already in place, restricting where ppl can carry does nothing.


Well you don't find many people trying to hold up an Applebee's full of people these days......or starting bar fights in one......Like I said, I have no problems with people having the right to carry and/or defend themselves. But I would rather it be done with some type of control. You get tested more extensively to get your driver's licens then to get a gun.
You obviously do have a problem with ppl carrying. You remind me of politicians saying you like the 2nd amendment but want to restrict it. What part of shall not be infringed is confusing? Your drivers license is not a constitutional right and essential to keeping the government in check. How do you think the american revolution started? Without guns, We would be under britian rule. An armed society is a polite society. A government should fear the people, not vice versa. Once the people fear the government, tryanny was won. And there have been robberies in restaurants before, but even if there hasnt been; i dont want to be the first one. How about walking to or from your car into the restaurant? Anyone ever get shot or robbed in a parking lot?

And you know this...... how? Have you given each and every one of them a psycological evaluation? I guess the Time Square's bomber was also a 'responsible citizen' until he snapped?
Based on statistics, and studies taken, We license holders have a lower crime rate than police officers, so yes i can say that we are more responsible. And yeah you are probably right about the time square bomber, he may have been decent at some point. But there isnt anything you can do about that one person. You cannot restrict millions of people based on the actions of one person.

That is all based on assumption. "Gee... he is following the law, so he must be responsible". You'll be amazed how many criminals were following the law and keeping under the radar up until the moment of their crimes.
exactly. why i want to be prepared at all times. What are you even talking about?

Again, assumptions. Just because you and your friends are able to handle a firearm with proper judgment doesn't mean every single legal license holder will do the same.
No but as a whole license holders make smart decisions
