Yup, and you better hope you're a "coward" too when a thug "coward" breaks into your home with a gun in his hand. Let's make dangerous, bad people illegal and then we can outlaw guns. I believe a democrat said that somewhere...
I live on the top floor of a door man building. I highly doubt this will happen anytime soon. I promise to try meditate on this tonight to gain understanding.

I find it funny how Americans need guns in their lives. Sad would be a more accurate statement I guess. The funny part comes in when they want to uphold the 2nd amendment written in a time when one can own a person, but it isn't outdated, right?

Through the many revisions made by Jefferson, the committee, and then by Congress, Jefferson retained his prominent role in writing the defining document of the American Revolution and, indeed, of the United States. Jefferson was critical of changes to the document, particularly the removal of a long paragraph that attributed responsibility of the slave trade to British King George III. Jefferson was justly proud of his role in writing the Declaration of Independence and skillfully defended his authorship of this hallowed document.

Take yourself a walk thru the mountains around Brookings Oregon. By yourself.
Different perspective will prevail.

“The peaceable part of mankind will be continually overrun by the vile and abandoned while they neglect the means of self-defence. The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The balance of power is the scale of peace. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside.... Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them; . . . the weak will become prey.”

There are about 11,000 gun homicides yearly in the US and DECREASING, as compared to 400,000 deaths by medical mistakes which is on the increase. If you want to really save lives make visits to doctors safer.

Take a look at Chicago or Detroit. Or the prohibition on drugs. Or alcohol. Prohibition INCREASES violence. Not the opposite. Remember, God had a prohibition in the Garden, and not even he succeeded. AND HE ONLY HAD TO DEAL WITH TWO PEOPLE. But you think gun prohibition will turn out differently. Are you familiar with Einstein's definition of insanity?
