The guns used in the school massacre were also in the home and not on the streets.

ban every gun accept handguns!

Handguns kill 9,000 people in the US every year. Rifles (of all types) kill 300.

I dont think we are the ones who are frightened. I dont own a gun or intend to. I sleep pretty comfortably at night, thanks. Dont need a gun to make me feel safe.

Why do you eat kidney pie? Why are you being over run by muslims? Why are you "ok" with effed up teeth? Why ANYTHING, genius? Read up, discover WHY yourself. It's a culture. Do you have a culture that you like? Anybody can own a keyboard and computer I guess...

You don't need a gun to feel safe because 250 million of your fellow Americans, including the cops and military all have them! (Which, by the way, are NOT aliens from another world like you Libtards think they are - They are our fathers, brothers, wives, sisters and moms to the gen pop)

I call it "Gun-Porn", I prefer the 30mm canon barrel to appropriately "fit" my giant, American, "fixation" of my "flesh blessing".

What else you got?

Makes one wonder why they are so fixed on rifles then. You know. They must have plans.

The issue i see is that if someone breaks into your house, they will carry a gun because they will know that you probabley own one. Here in the uk, they rarely come in with a gun, maybe a knife or a baseball bat. I got those :-)

I don't know anyone of us "gun nuts" that is pressuring YOU and your interests to "arm yourselves" and put guns in your houses out of fear. The message is lost with all of this BS sometimes.

No one should have a firearm in their home if they aren't 100% comfortable with it, first. Second, if the firearm can even slightly, possibly end up in the wrong hand for any reason, you shouldn't have one.

Street being one of those vague rhetorical catch alls that the mind benders use. A phrase taken from the slang of our culture and used to undermine the more serious philosophies that are the foundations for the 2nd amendment.

You will notice the news mechine likes to drag out voices with some qualifications like....former NRA member in good standing, war vets, former this and that, ect ect.....they use them for sound bites to support, by using these terms like "street", to mean "home" and suggest that not only do assult weapon owners not need these guns but that they are irresponsible for having them......ahhh out on the "street" (which means home in news speak) as well.

I say again.....99.9999999% of all assault weapons are in homes.

Yours.

Yeah. So was Lanza's...right up until he murdered 20 kindergarteners.

As a gun owner myself...it's this type of highly-selective "logic" that makes me SUPPORT gun control efforts. I simply am not comfortable that someone with such demonstrably inadequate critical thinking skills is permitted to own firearms. If that means none of us can...so be it.

Oh freind freind...you are the one using selected logic. Using one case out of millions of owners to smear the whole lot.

What do you think about early reports.....that the shooter was found with 2 pistols and the rifle was not in the building. Whatever the case dont let the confusion give you pause just chomp right down on in before the brain kicks in.

Wow man get ahold of yourself. I am totaly confortale. By fear I mean fear the the Bill of Rights is going to get tossed.

And we don't feel unsafe. I have a fire extinguisher in event of fire but I am not afraid of fire. Same sort of rational, logical decision.

Perhaps I misread your comment - My apologies for that.

Of course I think I'm the smartest! Hello??? We're humans, therefore egotists...And you know the golden rule, right? He with all the gold, makes the rules. In this case, its guns.

Actually, the UK has more break-ins of occupied dwellings in the US because of the risk of getting shot in the US. Our burglars prefer to wait until the home is unoccupied.

They look at guns and free-willed, able Americans like a dog looks at a fire in the fireplace. ZERO comprehension...Just dumbfounded fear.

I think they are brainwashed. Someone has turned their usefull idiot heads in a certain direction and nailed it to the floor.

'Home Defense' is not a valid reason and any mention of such intended use is likely to see you struck off the list of eligible owners permanently. All weapons you can now legally own and associated ammo need to be stored in approved secure lockers within the home and those storage provisions are subject to random inspections (if any of your legal weapons are found unsecured you lose your permit and all weapons are confiscated) .

What a joke. And home inspections? You subjugated boot lickers. And you have to watch what you say?

Home inspections are absolutely essential for those who own such weaponry. Lanza's mother was living with a kid she KNEW was mentally ill...HOW THE HELL DID HE HAVE ACCESS to the guns?

By the way....I hate to break it to you....but you are also a subjugated boot licker. You have guns now...right? THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL A SLAVE???

Home inspections of this sort are also against our consitution. You have to let the gov into the house and let them look around, make sure your a good little gun owner?

You know it's hard to take your posts seriously when you make comments like Libtards and Leftards and Godless monkeys. I consider myself a left-leaning centrist and a lover of the whole bill of rights, including the 2nd. I hate that the pres/VP is pushing for more gun regulations but I try my best not to name call right-leaning Americans. After all, we're all Americans in this country.

OP, you're right. This whole thing is about the media demonizing gun owners to push for more regulations and playing off average American's fears. Like another poster said, any weapon used in an assault could be considered an assault weapon. But it takes proper responsibility of the gun owners to make sure they don't fall into the hands of someone wanting to do harm to others. More government regulations aren't going to stop criminals from doing heinous things.

I would have told him that the issue was not the guns being in the home or not, it was that the kid was not institutionalized and so was out and about in the general population.

also, proper storage is VERY important.
