What? No counter-points by the anti-gun people. This seems like a one-sided thread.
I for one am for the freedom to own a gun. I think there should be classes that you have to take to own one. Some states have these classes but not
all. I don't use my weapon as a means of defense, I use it as a tool to hunt.
If guns are banned, which they won't be any time soon, then there will be either-
a) one hell of a rebellion(most likely)
b) one hell of a lot of car accidents(from hitting big game)
If they label my hand gun as a "WMD", they may see a hell of a lot of "WMD" flying their way...
