But regardless nobody should have the right to tell me I can't a certain rifle or handgun. Instead they should address the gorilla in the room thats at the core of the problem. Even though I live in PA and we can carry open or concealed and I can buy whatever I want as long as I have no criminal record what so ever. I should not have to dis-arm myself when I cross state lines. The average response time is something like 10 mins, by that time I have already been assaulted, mugged, beating, carjacked, raped,killed,etc...
Sorry but I tell people all the time, you couldn't give me a house in Jersey unless I could just sell it.
I know its a cheesy bumper sticker but "Gun kill people like spoon made Rosie Odonnell fat" |
Gun and a spoon are tools. Gun kills, spoon scoops.
Gun kills lots of things. Spoon scoops lots of things
Guns kill people, Spoons scoop ice cream
No one here is saying remove all guns. Even I, "Capt. Lib", do not want to see wepons taken away.
I do want to see stronger regulation on the most dangerious guns. Assault rifles are not needed for home defense, IMO. I dont see the need to have an M60 or a SAW in the house and claim that as home defense weapon.
AK47 is another weapon like that. People, as a group, are dumb. Laws are not ment for you, or you, or you, but for the WHOLE group of people, be it county, state, or country.
