let me clear things up 1st. I know of one town in america where there is mandatory ownership, that town is nelson georgia and the facts are there are less than 1500 people who live there, the law only requires head of household to have a gun, and those who are mentally or physically impaired as well as those with conscientious objections are excluded' so despite the word 'mandatory' , its far from everyone having a gun 2nd. No, criminals do not care about laws. That is why in high crime areas it makes sense to have a gun(or some type of protection). In low to no crime areas it doesn't make AS MUCH sense. When I was in a higher crime area, my husband had a gun. When I have lived in low crime areas, I have not had any gun. 3rd. I dont wish to 'take all guns' due to the very 'common sense' mentioned before. it is sensible to have a gun in a high crime area where fatality is an increased risk. It is less sensible if that is not a high risk in your community or area. its not 'common sense' for everyone to have a gun anymore than it is for noone to Here's the thing as far as I see it. You talk about low and high crime places. Where to, and where it doesn't makes sense to carry a gun. I'm 50 miles from Atlanta. I refuse to go into Atlanta without my gun. I live in a small town. The old saying goes, if you blink your eyes you will miss it. You never hear about anyone around here getting shot or stabbed. But you know, there is always that one time. That time when you don't expect it. Because you live in a place where nothing like that ever happens. The first murder that ever happened here was in 1968. Since that time there have been four more. Yes, that's not a lot. But what if they had been armed? They were not. All of them were home invasions. Dope heads looking for drugs and fast money. The point is, you never know when it's going to be you. It may never be you. But just because you live or work in a quiet place doesn't mean that one day you will not be the target. It can happen to anyone at any time. The day those two broke into the warehouse where they knew there were armed guards, they knew they were taking their lives into their hands. It was a quiet area. No break in's ever before. Until that day. On my shift. They came in ready to kill to get what they wanted. It's better to have it and not need it. Than to need it and not have it. I don't wish to live that way the chance of getting hit by lightning in my lifetime is 1 in 3000,,,but that doesn't mean I have to have rubber soled shoes everywhere I go in case it happens there are areas where the chance of a gun assault is much lower than that,, so I wouldn't choose and don't choose to keep a gun just in case of that either especially since I believe having one elevates the chance you will need it, and that someones life will be taken, which is not a responsibility I wish to carry with me |

Weapons should be kept off the streets completely! Keep em at home if you want. IMO that being said, I was caught in the crossfire of a shoot out and I was first on site of an armed hostage taking. I won't step into the states again unless I can rent 2 X .45s with holster and I'd need a handbag for the clips, let's not get too fancy, only 25 of them clips eh? those "CLIPS" used to be called "MAGAZINES"! |

I believe guns have advantages and disadvantages depending on how people use the weapons in their hands. A gun can be use for self defense and protection or for abuse and committing crimes. There's nothing wrong with possession of firearms as long as you are responsible enough in handling such weapon for your protection. In places where heinous crimes are common or are prone to burglary or any kind of invasion of your property every houses should have something to protect them in IN CASE OF EMERGENCY or when a certain situation calls for an action coz you never know who might attack you and the minds or behaviors of criminals, drug addicts, terrorist etc. are uncontrollable and unpredictable. Nowadays everyone and everywhere is not safe anymore. Even if you know self defense, what if you encountered a psycho and he has a gun fired at you, what would you do, do you think your martial art skills could protect you? Definitely no, you are just one shot maybe and you're dead. But with a gun you can give a warning shot to make someone back off and be hesitant to attack you. Well as long as you know when to fire and not to fire coz even policemen can't just shoot an unarmed criminals and even those with a gun who fired they would still not shoot but only give a warning shot unless if the criminal continues to fight back then they have the right to defend themselves and to reinforce their authority. As for civilians we also do the same with our licensed firearm. Just don't forget to get a license though or else you'll be charged of illegal possession of firearm yep,fire all the Warning-shots if you are tired of your Existence! Lol! I would definitely not get tired of my existence life is so good to be wasted if it's life threatening then I would not waste my bullets firing many warning shots.....count your steps OK come get closer and you will see your brain scattered on the floor Good point Dolphin! When the chips are down, and it means your life, you will protect you and yours. Unlike these treehuggers, I live 1.2 miles from the most dangerous town on the planet, Cd. JUAREZ, Mexico. The reason that our sister city never crosses the line is because they know something. That the majority of El Paso Texans are "Carrying". There are some evil MFers over there. Our constitutional rights protect us even from corrupt government. Thanks Rob I believe we all have the SURVIVAL INSTINCTS , it's human instinct to protect oneself from any dangerous or life threatening situation in order to live or survive. Any weapons can be used not just guns and it can protect or kill anyone. We just have to be mindful of our behaviors in taking proactive steps for our safety and security and thus avoid human violence. |

Dead men tell no Tales! Indeed I will aim for the biggest body mass and for the record I will only give one warning shot, I definitely won't waste any more bullets for nothing |

Let's see what happens next week in Cleveland with the RNC convention. Ohio has open carry rights and the Cleveland Police Chief said he has to allow open carry around the convention site (not in the site, nor close surrounding area, because that is under SS control.)

I'm just tired of stupid people, maybe in addition to background checks they should also do IQ tests........
there are already studies that show only complete morons use violence as a FIRST means to resolving conflict. ... intelligent people understand the need to have it for certain situations but they aren't going to reach for it when they get cut-off on the hwy |

Nope, guns don't do anything wrong. I am tired if hatred. My cousin is a COP. She prefers open carry. People who open carry normally aren't a problem. She says she would rather know what someone has.

In a situation between life and death, when a killer or burglar attacked you inside your house and senselessly fired a gun at you....what will you do? Which one would you choose, your life or his life? Are you gonna shoot him or just let him shoot you? Sometimes when a certain situation calls to save your life as a defense , it could unavoidably cost another one's life. Is that wrong? |
