Something really funny about gun control in America

I read this on one of Cracked.com's lists and I think it's hilarious. Basically there are absolutely no restrictions on buying mini-guns in America. Why? Because only an idiot would buy one. There are only 11 civilian units on the market (that's eleven guns total, not models). They cost around $400 grand each, and considering the rate of fire, it'll cost you around $3,600 per minute to fire one. I'm sure maintenance is a pain in the ass too!

Because guns are made generally for killing people, and that isn't very nice is it ?

Sporting reason I can understand and yes it is fun firing weapons, I enjoyed it when I was in the Military.

But civilians don't need guns do they, especially in countries like the US where a lot of people are insane lunatics.

Actually, I'd almost argue that in countries with a lot of insane lunatics (like the US, for example) civilians do need guns more.

The right to own a gun was not intended to be so you can protect yourself from other people, it was to protect your nation from the government.

Well that went in the shitter right about the point where the government got better weapons and made money off the weapons.

Oh don't be stupid. If there's a lunatic in the room, the gun is most likely to make the situation worse. Stop jerking off P&T.
