the tv tells me guns are bad so i believe them ...
and for that matter, this is why america is great. a small group in a area where guns arent welcome dont get to dictate the rules for everyone ... usually.
AND like they say, how many times does someone report a crime that never happened? the news never reports how someone ALMOST got mugged or came CLOSE to being raped only to be saved by a gun
are you calling me close minded people :squint:

That said, guns in the hands of criminals = bad. How about we have harsher penalties for gun crimes, stop letting felons out early, etc etc.
It's illegal for a reason.
i am all for that - what is the point of going through the justice system if only to let the person who shot someone else sit in jail for couple years and the back out on the streets so they can do it again.
well that is the point also, tv shows criminals using guns which equates people to believe they are bad. at the same time you can not deny the items ability to be used in either manner. i guess it is the ease of obtaining legally/illegally and the convenience of having it on person that makes this such an interesting topic
