Did you really just say that gun owners have it worse in American that Muslims do?!
Are you serious?
~Tenth
Yeah they do.
'Gun violence', 'Gun culture' not enough proof ?
I find it funny Gun owners are looked down upon MORE SO than terrorists.
And there you have it.
Neo considers ALL American Muslims to be terrorists.
~Tenth
That's rich coming from someone who said what was it ?
Americans and their 'gun culture'.
Pot calling the kettle.
How is saying that America has a gun culture the same as you thinking that all Muslims are terrorists? Yours is bigotry/xenophobia, the tenths is an observation.
As opposed to the BIGOTRY of GUNPHOBIA ?

Honestly with statements like that it scares me that you are allowed to own a gun.

And that's why I say it's been piss poor. I don't disagree that most gun laws only hurt law abiding citizens, that's very much true.
I would think there would be a way to improve things though no? I'm not sure if they closed that whole gun show loophole, but that seems like a big one.
It would help if the Fed wasn't gun running to Mexico either I suppose. I'm not saying I have the answer, I just think you're not being represented correctly on the National stage, much like almost every other group these days.

Worked great for alcohol.
It also gave us some great Americans:
Bugsy Malone, Machine gun Charley, Al Capone.
Let's not forget governments will still have their guns.
Also worked out great for Nazi Germany and Red China.

Do a little research (as I have) and what you find is that in countries without guns the stabbing rates go through the roof.
In England for example, a country the size of a small state, the number of stabbings last year is approaching 30,000.
