Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

shosh why the hell are you arguing with me? I'm not saying guns should be banned by any means, and have never uttered a word that would lead you to belive that.. you sure quote a lot of posts.. do you actually read what you quote?

Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

I laugh at how many times andy has said he is out of this thread.

Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

for all the people who have guns 'for protection'.

what do you need it for? who are you protecting yourself from and why do you need that protection? are you involved in gangs, drugs, criminal activity on the level that one would kill you if you didn't pay up so you need your glock to kill the man when he comes to collect?

retarded.

maybe you live in some crime ridden crazy place? is it really THAT bad and if so why not leave? the only BADDD place for me was new orleans before katerina and phili. those 5 streets that suck shit.

i think its really sad america has such a gun culture where kids actually think having a gun is cool and killing things is fun. horrible and barbaric thinking and im proud to say i'd never have a gun in the house and i'd never allow a gun in my house.

that is where your freedom stops for me. you can smoke, drink, and shoot yourself silly with heroin, but you're not bringing a gun in my house.

not arguing with you bro. but you keep bringing up the protection part of owning a gun, where theres much much more to it. i never said you are for banning guns or anything like that. i was stating that i dont care if anyone blames me for having a gun. the woman part was in reference to women wanting a piece of me... i thought you might be interested too?

Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

Hay guyz whad I miss?

Oh right,

Simple answer to this. The world is not utopia, bad people live in it. Guns are for protecting yourself against these said bad people, which includes a government that oppresses its citizens. Bans do nothing, so get over yourself with that garbage. The bad seeds who want the guns will still get them. There should be a better screening process of some sort to weed out stupid gun owners IMO, but the underlying point still stands:

2nd Amendment = vital to freedom

Protection can also be defined as resistance from tyranny. It's also beneficial to know that the 2nd amendment also correlates with John Locke's view of economic freedom, which is the ownership of private property. I'm not as anal, but if my family is threatened, there's no reason why I'm not allowed to protect my private property.

Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

for all foreign critics -- i suggest making a honest, and unprejudiced striving to learn history (not just your textbook cheese, and quacky conspiracy speculations available at the bookstore) before making such vain assumptions. intuition strikes the inner keynotes if you have that truth within you, i heard once.

formulating a well thought out opinion based on gun-crime homicidal stats would be in-congruent when making an appeal to outlaw firearms. here is why:

any fool can find a gun in this digital/information age, simply if they just desired it.

the stats only dimly and apparently reflect how fucked the situation is here. the government(such saps) should be making tougher efforts to stem gun crime, and they should be pushing especially hard on the gun running organizations and cartels -- that should be top priority. they all operate with relative impunity like it where a breeze forsures. i can guarantee you as well that a significant number of the guns used in homicides come from the 'black market' in some way. ffs. i could leave the house right now and head over to the regionally known underground spots and pick up a concealed weapon (handgun) and be back within the hour, and i dont even live in the inner city or participate in any illegal activity now. even average and partially informed people, here, can gain access to such a grim spectacle as easy as it is to find your closest starbucks, no doubt about it. it's like the hypocritical war on drugs, it's futility.

my point is this, we are up to our heads in problems on all fronts here in america (and verily the whole world)... its like a burning house that does not let up, and keeps on truckin. like localizer said, prohibition will only make things worse in this 'compulsory' and fast pace society.

the paramount and essential freedom that the second amendment grants is there for those few and far between integral individuals who can make a positive difference, for the general good, and uphold a steady equilibrium to counter all the stupidity, corruption and wrong spewing forth from humanity. sure there will be epic fuck ups and accidents along the way -- but that happens in life. its not just about protection at all, but a strong conscious determination to have the discipline to bear such a hard liability, and stand (subjectively and objectively) strong against all the bullshit, even if you are not directly effected -- day in and day out. quality, good and constructive shit gets done that way.

Exactly, the government needs to crack down on the illegal arms trading, not on the citizens of the US who legitimately and legally hold firearms. But I guess none of these self-righteous world lovers ever followed the DC gun ban overturn. If you don't like guns, fine, but don't come barking up our tree telling us we shouldn't have them and that we're logically inept for having them.

Re: Do you own a Gun?? US citizens

honestly, I dont think anyone on here has said EVER that guns should be banned, or that EVERY one that owns one legally or illegally is logically inept.. dont get all fucking high and mighty asking to spout out statistics you havent done so either

she is right though, just because you are allowed or have the right to do something doesnt mean you HAVE to.. most everyone over the age of 21 has the legal right to drink, but not every one does or feels like they have to

[I][B]my[/B][/I] point in this thread only has been yes it is a right, and i am fine with that, I choose not town one and thats my choice.. it is just unfortunate that:

1. any idiot can get a gun just as easy as someone that has the maturity to own one
