Topic: What's your opinion of gun control? - page 107. (Read 450548 times)

For me it's all about freedom. The 2nd Amendment gives us the right to keep and bear arms. That right has been infringed upon enough. Gun control is a joke. How would you like to live in a society where only the police and criminals had guns ?

By far the great majority of people are peaceful. If each peaceful person had a thousand guns, and 10 million rounds of ammo, he/she would never harm anyone with it.

The violent, bad people will always be able to get guns and ammo, if they have to make it all themselves.

Peaceful people have the right to protect themselves. When they protect themselves by taking out the violent, bad people who are attacking them, they are doing everyone a service.

As soon as all the violent, bad people are gone, there will be almost no more shootings.

Obviously, law enforcement isn't taking out the violent, bad people. Somebody has to do it.

The real problem isn't who is allowed to own guns - the real problem is, who is getting the short end of the stick by everyone being allowed to own guns ? White middle class America ?  

When you talk about gun control you are talking about it from a position of relative (albeit paranoid) safety.

No, its not you bitcoiners paying the price - its the likes of Diamond Reynolds getting the short end of the stick, from where I'm sat.

Lets hope they don't take the battle to your doors hey ? Is that what its going to take to bring it home ?

Whats the end game here ?

You mean that gun's should be possible to buy in every bigger store?
this is stupid.I think gun control is good when authorized civil people can get armed with it,if they cannot it is just sick.

Earlier this week, Judicial Watch came out with the information that one of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed Mexican drug cartels to buy thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile "gun-walking" operation known as "Fast and Furious." Prior to arming Mexican drug cartels and the Paris shooters, the CIA determined that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were arming ISIS.

In the immediate aftermath of the Orlando shooting, the New York Times had a big op-ed by a U.C.L.A. 'Law Professor' Adam Winkler, who suggested Congress should "secretly" strip Americans of their Second Amendment rights. In a video that can be seen here, I absolutely shredded the asinine arguments the alleged 'professor of law' made his op-ed, which frankly was an embarrassment for The Times to even print.

How many liberals have you heard voicing concerns about the U.S. government arming known killers? Any? How many have you heard demanding justice? None. Who are liberals focused on? Liberals are focused on taking guns away from law abiding Americans. How are they focusing their effort? By telling lies, six of which are are listed below, and disprove just about every liberal talking point they have on guns.

Americans need to wake up! Liberals know the demographics of the country are changing so fast, that they'll have a big enough majority soon to control all three branches of government. Make no mistake: Liberals aren't "anti-gun" by any means. Liberals in government are very much "pro-gun," as long as they have the guns. Those same liberals however, are very much against people they want complete control over having guns. Make the distinction.

If you want to actually learn something about guns, the mainstream media is the last place you'll want to look. The American public's perception of the firearms debate has been completely warped by the media already. Consider this: there are half as many gun murdersper-capita today as there were in the early 1990s, but only 12 percent of Americans are aware of that fact. By contrast, 56 percent think it's increased, and 26 percent think it's about the same.

You better believe the solutions proposed by those in Congress is faulty when most don't even completely understand the nature of the problem. Here are just six facts courtesy of Breitbart News that you won't see on MSNBC anytime soon…

1. Background Checks Do Not Stop High Profile Attackers

Although gun grabbers relentlessly push background checks as the solution to stopping high profile attacks on innocent Americans, the facts are that background checks do not hinder high profile attackers in the least. Alleged Orlando attacker Omar Mateen passed a background check for his guns, as did UCLA gunman Mainak Sarkar and almost every high profile attacker in the past 10 years. You can find a complete list here.

2. More People Killed With Clubs, Hammers Than Rifles

Amid the push for an "assault weapons" ban following the Sandy Hook attack, Breitbart News consulted FBI numbers for the years 2005-2011 and found that the number of murders by hammers and clubs constantly topped the number of murders by rifle. For example, In 2005 the number of murders committed with a rifle was 445, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 605. In 2006, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 438, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 618. In 2011, there was 323 murders committed with a rifle but 496 murders committed with hammers and clubs.

Gun control is stupid, criminals dont need firearms legally

Train the whole population to be police and military, and you won't need to pay for a police department or the military.

Gun control doesn't necessarily mean that civil people don't get access to guns.  It just means controls are put on them so that unauthorised people can't get hold of them.

In my opinion,it is the most stupid thing that the government forbiddens civil people to use guns.
Criminal can always get the gun,he does not care about penalties,police etc. But you can't as a rightful citizen.
And the police will never get there on time,you can shoot somebody 10 times before they will arrive.

but most of the people are keeping it just for fun and just for showmen t. it in turn create problems. it can make a person more emotional. and in very minor issues it make people to use it. it is a fact that the use of gun is too easy to use. but when you use it against one one then it becomes beg issue to control it.

Having guns personally makes some people to feel saved especially if they live in areas with high level of criminal. How else to protect themselves if government can't do that?
