False teachers who bring in "destructive heresies" will "bring on themselves swift destruction." It is foretold that "many will follow their destructive ways."

Ben Stein?

My point is that it is currently WAY TO EASY for criminals to get thier hands on guns......and all these wannabe hip-hop gangstas can easily go purchase guns.....now think of this....dumb kid wannabe hip-hop gangsta who has no previous criminal background goes and easily gets a gun......he's now feeling like he's a bad motherf#cker.....a year later he gets in some stupid argument in some club and BANG!....at least two peoples lives are changed forever.....now he goes to jail and is hanging out with REAL criminals for at least a few years......what is he going to be when he gets out?.....all this could have been prevented if it was just a little bit harder for people to buy guns......once again I will say I OWN 5 GUNS and I absolutly love them!....and it really wouldn't be too much trouble for me to register them and have to take a safety course.....its not a big deal for those who are responsible......."with great power comes great responsibility" and guns should only be in the hands of those responsible and mentally stable enough to handle them....and I agree that it is a difficult task of getting guns out of criminals hands....but not an impossible one......how about this....go check out Englands gun crime rates where handguns are illegal and only sporting rifles and shotguns are allowed....I dare you all to come up with an answer for that....this outta be good!.....haha....and once again before you forget I OWN 5 GUNS and LOVE THEM

agreed.....kse is killer....fun live show too

Again I will say if you can guarentee an innocent "non carrying a gun" person will not become the target of an angry, out of their mind, drunk, druggie, temporarily insane, control freak, gun power junkie, father, brother, sister cousin, aunt, uncle, mother, etc.... and end up hurt or dead because of these crazies with guns. I will gladly say arm us all.

Until that day I cannot.

I was raised with guns and am not a bad shot myself but I could not bring myself to own one because my children's health and well being came before mine. I could never forgive myself if I brought a gun into my house and my son(who was a great locksmith by a young age) got ahold of the gun and did someone harm. I would not have felt good had my home got broken into while I was gone and a burgler got ahold of my weapon and used it against other people, etc....

I was being untimately responsible for myself and a gun. I was being respectful of others by not bringing a danger into my home or society.

I guess the point is that we wouldn't need to walk around with guns if criminals didn't have them.....so the first step into getting guns out of criminals hands would be to make it harder for them to obtain them....I live in Texas,now I don't know about other states(and believe it or not Texas has more gun control than several other states).....but here you can BYPASS the crimnal background check law by simply purchasing a gun at a gun show.....the dealers there are considered "private" sales....so gangbangers can simply walk off the street and into one of these shows and purchase whatever they want....and just walk out that day with a gun....or multiple guns....there are AT LEAST 3 gun shows a month here......hmmmmmm....so yes, I would say a good start would be tougher legislation on purchasing and owning a firearm.....and then start working on getting the MILLIONS of unlicsensed and unregistered guns off the streets....
