Guns dont kill people People kill people That simple..Enough said so take away the guns from the people and maybe the murder rate would go down???? Thats including the criminals of course..... Yeah, and all of the drug dealers, pimps, rapists and murderers will line up to turn theirs in. Why? Because it’s the law.

Can kill as easy with a knife, so do we take away knives? I am permited to carry, have drawn my weapon twice, never had to use it. If I hadn't had it, me & mne might not be here. Proper use of weapons, IS a NECC. thing. The improper one's are the problem.

I find it funny that your constitution gives you the rights then with those rights come mass amounts of crime and yet you defend that right???? Rights are great for the right reasons......why is it there are more murders there???

I like the fact that the ignorant gang-bangers kill each other with guns. Keeps the honest citizens from having to do so. Ok, Im running out of here....

My wife & I wereabout to be assaulted. Drugged up truck driver wanted into his truck, where I bet he had a gun. Did not want to pay his bill. assualted the Highway patrolman that came to scene. Officer found 3 guns in his truck, driver admitted he was going to kill me. Is that proper reason to draw my weapon. Should I have allowed 4 men to assualt my wife & the friends we were with? Police felt I was right. See PROPER use, no shots fired. All in the training.

The number of crimes in which a handgun was used in England and Wales has risen from 299 in 1995 to 1,024 last year. Offenses committed with all types of firearms, including air guns, have also increased. That's an increase of 725 gun crimes in 11 years, a 242 percent increase. Britain already had strict gun control before the 1996 Dunblane, Scotland, school shooting, and in 1997 both Conservative and Labour governments pushed through fresh gun control legislation banning small caliber handguns. http://newsbusters.org/node/12267

More guns, more people= more killings wrong, in most places with strong gun laws there are more deaths than those with lax laws. firearms in the hands of the public reduces crime Have you noticed that liberals will be the first to attack a person not in agreement? It's called name calling and attacking the person, not the issue. Regarding the issue, inform the person favoring gun confication that the states most recently permitting concealed crime have experienced significant drops in "soft target" crimes. The statistics are free from opinion and nothing to faint over. i've more noticed this to be a conservative tactic. but it's whatever, those without a leg to stand on often resort to childish tactics adj you know better than that to get me to copy and post some crap on the net!!! and you do know its true!!! if you'd look up information of the topic you speek, you'd find that you're in the wrong
