Quote by: brien Wrong .... You and the Sonarts of the world will never get it because you are elitist people who think you know better than everyone else how to tackle the problem of gun violence. Your solution is the ONLY way.

Hmmm... let's see... considering I haven't required to use a gun for self defense in my life thus far, I'm still alive, just like you.... and um.... yeah I can't really put a finger on any of my family or any nearby friends who ever got shot where I live....... Hmmmmm.....

Logically one would consider the possibility that a firearm as a right is not required for your survival.

It has nothing to do about being some elitist or more holier then thou..... it's life experience against life experience in this matter. As I said in another thread a while back, if your country has such high crime, so many murders, so many gun related crimes to the point where you must have a gun to protect yourself, then that says something about your society as a whole and it's overall security.

Sorry, but it's just my irrelevant opinion, but that doesn't sound like "The Greatest Country in the Free World" if you ask me, but hey, what do I know?

You don't get the fact that people who use firearms in the commission of a crime are the problem, not the gun. You elitists want to punish law abiding citizens rather than the criminals. Typical

Not exactly... we punish both equally, however if one does obtain a gun during a situation where you are defending your life and then use it to kill the other person, that is still self defense and there's no charge from my knowledge.

Not to mention, if you get a hold of the the criminal's gun and kill him with it, then thems the breaks.

For some reason you seem to like to make it all sound kinda silly like we let criminals with guns just walk.... nice twist to suit your position, but flawed.

I don't know how many times I have to write it but the surest way to solve crimes involving firearms is to punish the criminal with severe, swift and certain penalties. Firearms don't discharge themselves. Surely even the dimwits in the world realize that it is criminals who are responsible for crimes involving firearms, not the guns.

If you can be arrested and charged for possession of a bomb suit, then you should be charged with possession of an unregistered/non-licensed firearm... I mean, it's not the bomb that kills everyone, it's the bomber.

But, hey be an ostrich, the feathers suit you well.

Pssh.... ok there buddy, here have an egg, I warmed it just for you.
