I don't want those who are responsible gun owners disarmed because of the acts of the few, and since you are responsible gun owners I want to know why some of the less responsible feel the need to be so proficiently armed when it's not necessary?

You want to hunt? fine by all. Take whatever firearms you need to get the job done, no fault there and there is no fault with the responsible gun ownership that most members adhere to. I'm talking about the other owners in the world who's Samity Sam mentality leads them to purchase 'advanced' weapons when they have no need for them and brandish them whenever they get the chance. Even the NRA have frowned upon such behavior which was alluded to in another post.
The problem is that sometimes these people will equate power to safety. January last year I was accosted by a man wielding a large butchers knife, and I was unarmed. Five minutes later he was also unarmed and in pain, and in the end I didn't need a bigger knife to subdue him.

And who determines what a 'responsible' firearms owner happens to be, you?
As long as they are not in violation of any law they should be able to own anything they want.

Conversely, can you determine who's a responsible gun owner? NO. I'm on your side to a certain extent, but the answer to my question goes unanswered.

The right for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happyness as granted to us by the Founding Fathers a long time ago. It is not a privilege or an allowance by the government. It is an unalienable universal right that every person..
