Topic: What's your opinion of gun control? - page 37. (Read 450471 times)
Good posts, one and all. Personally, any decent self respecting country should and must have gun control. In most countries individuals simply do not need any guns, unless they are farmers then a shotgun is sufficent. People in cities surely have no really need of hand guns and especially assault weapons. Unless its some horrible country where the rule of law is failing and the police are impotent.
Licensing is one thing, but even when licensed guns need to be locked away in a cabinet and with locks on the trigger and hopefully some lock or barrier on the end of the muzzle or barrel. Guns kills people. People use guns to kill. Killing is wrong
I would be for a ban of guns worldwide, police and armies included. I mean, destroy every single existing gun on earth. From that day onwards we would have people fighting again with swords, which is more romantic.
In my opinion, it would be better if only the authorities have the access to guns or any other weapons that may harm others. In Japan, households do not have guns thus people don't have access to it so there is a lower rate of crime related to firearms. It is also easier to regulate it that way.
However, the government should make it impossible for people with a criminal record, and those with mental issues from obtaining fire-arms.
It is impossible to stop private sales.
You cannot and will not ever stop someone from obtaining a firearm if that is what they're after. Yes, the same age old adage that banning guns will work because banning drugs worked is true. The only thing you will ever do by limiting firearms to able-bodied people is prevent them from defending themselves.
gun control should be implemented so that the supply of guns will only be concentrated at those people who really need it. guns are harmful and should be handled with care
In my opinion, the purpose of a gun was to kill or hurt someone. In Japan, gun was strictly banned and as a result their crime rate decreases. I am not saying that there is no criminal in that country but they were doing great in their fight against criminals. I'm not really a fan of guns. When a person is aggravated and he has a gone, most likely he will think about using it and that is were the problem is. The thought of using it can lead to something unavoidable, possibly murder. It is not right for civilians to have a gun, only the people with a badge has the right to have it and if possible, no one should ever had it. Peace.
The U.S. Constitution allows guns, but it was never envisioned that guns could be as advanced as humans have made them in just the last few decades. There should be some regulations on accessibility and safety, but I do not believe there should be an outright ban.
The only result in gun control is that honest citizens will remain unarmed in front of well armed criminals
Gun control is necessary and stringent laws need to be passed. Arms usage should be for personal protection only and within the perimeter of your own home. That being said, only smaller arms should be available for the public.
Why are Automatic and semi-automatic weapons being licenced to public or veterans are beyond me. Even if it is for a recreational purpose, its a problem.
A smaller arms is enough for personal protection. Bigger guns and ammunition and for any other reason is just an excuse to satisfy a political and mental problem.
To me, it is a threat to my freedom. Knowing that anyone who has a gun can carry it to a public gathering restricts my freedom.

I believe that gun control will not work.
First, I believe that guns are not weapons, they are tools. How they are used is up to the person holding it. Guns themselves can't do anything it is the person with the gun that decides where the bullet goes.
Gun control will not stop violence because a violent person doesn’t need a gun to be violent. Taking guns away from violent people will not make them less violent. It might make them more violent. Violent people can use anything to be violent. Taking guns away from violent people is no more than just taking one out of a thousand more ways to hurt, rob, or kill you.

I agree! Ppl kill Ppl. And i disagree. Taking guns away from violent ppl will reduce consequences. Its not same if some1 hits u with a fist or lunatic granny shoots you with a gun. In some point of time, we can all go dark side...

Only public safety institutions should wear guns, no other man or woman!
That "public safety Institutions" killed millions in the 20st century. And they will do it again
The point isn't all the danger or the ethics of owning guns. The point is how to get rid of guns, and if it is really a good idea.
A 250 pound muscleman can easily mug and rape and murder a 90 pound granny. But if Granny has a gun, she has a chance.
If the people murdered by mass shootings had had guns, they would have had a chance to protect themselves from mass-murdering gunmen.
You can't take the guns away from all the bad guys. We even need our guns for protection from rogue cops and military people.

It's just dangerous. Who needs a gun despite policeman, or other professionals? We live in a dangerous world, yes, but that doesn't mean that we all have to be dangerous.
I personally live in France, gun possession is not allowed, and I sleep very well at night.
When I see American fighting for their right to own a gun, I just wonder why? There are so many mass shooting in the USA, families are destroyed every day because of that. So why do you want to keep this way?
Do they really want a world surrounded by fear for their children, wondering when they will go to the cinema if a crazy guy will shoot at them?
This madness has to stop.

Guns and other ammunition are the weapons made by humans to kill humans. There is no way one can say guns are useful to us, the greed of human has brought us to such a point where we cannot trust our own race of humans.
In my country, carrying guns are strictly forbidden. And I agree for that. Last year was action to give all the weapons that no reportet. We can only use guns for hunt. But licence must be worn.

Speaking for myself, I'll warn any kooky Kabbalist douchebags that if they come to me with their stupid fucking Noahide laws I'll stick those things three feet up their ass with no lubavich. I doubt I'm alone, and I suspect that this is one of the main reasons why 'the Jews' are so front and center in trying to dis-arm us American peeps.

Why should be against gun control? First of all guns is not a weapon it is a tools . Coz guns has a benifits like we can use it for our self defense . And also for me it is depends for us if how we use it . When people kill, they do not have any feelings because they do not know any thing about love, compassion, liberty and promises. The only way those persons can get these feelings is when they come from family, friends and people who are close to them. Now, having a gun is not a problem; the problem is what the people feel when they use one.
I think is fair for people to use guns, these who killt innocent by gun holding deserve to be killed also.
And of course people without papers shouldn't be able to hold a gun.
