Everyone who is Pro-gun control is one event away from being a card carrying member of the NRA.

Gun control and carry permits won't stop murder, but it'll sure as hell make it more difficult. Plus, more consequences should you be caught with one. With a nation-wide ban on firearms using projectiles, how easy do you think it will be to use a gun without having every cop in the state looking for you?
Guns will be like leaving a fingerprint at a crime scene. I'm all for this gun control thing. I hate guns. Guns used to be a good thing, but now, there's too much temptation. We're too out of control. And when a cat gets too wild...
You take its claws away.

So keep guns and keep allowing people the ability to kill each other, just because we like guns and power trips?
I like you. You're cruel.
That's always the response. "Law abiding citizens need guns to defend themselves."
They only need guns against bad guys who also have guns. Half the time, it's bad guys who used to be law abiding citizens suddenly grabbing their gun and going berzerk. Take away all guns, and we'll only have knifes and sticks to fight with. Better chances all around. If you know some good self defense, a guy with a knife might as well be a clown with a banana.
Level the playing ground a little, yeah?

Here is one thing I dont get is why no one is really talking about all the nuts in Chicago killing each other and you hardly hear a peep. What is up with that? Is it selective? Only when it works for your political cause. Anyone including the prez who used this to futher there politcal career or their tv ratings ought too be ashamed to call themselves human. And you no that, that is exactly what they are doing. And that is all I have to say about that. And I will say a prayer for the families. Sometimes that is all we can do.

So and then the rats and mice will be out of control - trading one problem for another is nonsense.
