I can't say I am for gun control I mean people before geting some should wait a while and get a background check but not to take our guns away from us right away.
I mean going back to world war two.That was the first thing Hitler did he took away all the guns from the people in garmany thus geting power.
Wait a second there seen to be a match here Clinton=Hitler!Anyone ever noted that before.JM
the lack of intelligence in your post, JM... THAT is something I noticed yes and it greatly concerns me
comparing hitler and clinton shows your lack of historical knowledge, evenmore that you claim that "taking away all the guns from the people in garmany" gave hitler the power... I suggest you urgently read some books about how hitler came to power.
And DO note the Nazis became the largest part in the Reichstag on July 1932 and Hindenburg calling Hitler to be chancellor of a coalition cabinet on january 30, 1933.
this thread should be a no brainer
wtf is the practical use of an automatic assault rifle?
when is the last time a hunter shot a deer with an ak47?
or defended his home from an intruder with an uzi?
bush promised to not let the ban expire, and he let it expire, more proof he's a lying careless scumbag who cares NOTHING for our safety.
idiots like to twist this around and cry about their constitutional rights, but dont realise they are stretching it waaaaaay too far. technically, a nuclear warhead is "arms"...so should we all have on? automatic weapons are WMDs and should have remained banned.
F**K BUSH
Yerss with his Simpsons quotes...🙂
I think what it is, is that most people who cry the 2nd Amendment don't know what it really means. Back when it was written, it meant that each state had the right to form its own standing militia. Obviously it's very outdated today.
Do I believe that we need gun control? Yes. Why in hell do you NEED to own an assault weapon? I can answer that question...you don't. Plain and simple.
I must say I see no purpose really, or civil liberty, in have such high powered weapons available. What are they really there for? I mean, home security is often brought up, but a single bullet would stop a home invader if one wanted to stop them so badly. Do we really need guns that can penetrate the walls of homes and spray bullets everywhere?
Of course Australia had pretty liberal gun laws until a few years ago when a disturbed chap went on an "automatic killing spree" as one paper put it. And coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan have been trying to take everyones guns away, good and bad, which seems sensible, but they have rights to....
I heard the gun ban wasn't doing shit for crime anyway...
