Topic: What's your opinion of gun control? - page 54. (Read 450471 times)

The thing is you can have guns in europe. There is just no public carrying because police have the monopoly on it.
I.e. in central and northern europe there exist 30-40 guns per 100 ppl.
We dont just feel safer, we live safer (if you ignore the latest muslim stuff ).

But at the end of the day it might be just culture.
Europe had no wild west and is devided in (more or less) ethnically homogenous nation states in comparison with the US.

Europe is on suicidal mission. Those acts are the first waves of self destruction. America is lucky to have a strong pro 2nd Amendment president finally.

Ya that muslim mass shootings everywhere in europe.
Bad. Very bad. So sad.

Gun control can be effective only if the government is 100% successful in preventing the criminals from owning illegal guns. But from what we have seen so far, none of the governments have been successful in doing that. That means that if gun control is implemented, then the civilians will be devoid of guns to protect themselves from the gun-bearing attackers.

Is it normal in the US to let your guns in your car?

Also do you have to put your gun in a security case if you are transporting it by car?

The gun control idea is right for you if you decide that it is right for you. You are welcome to ban all guns that you consider dangerous for you and your family. That is freedom.

Legalization and "illegalization," (gun control by Government) has to do with taking away freedom from people. The freedom issue is way more important than the gun issue.

Just picked up one of these beauties.  Their story is more intriguing than the weapon.   

If you are a hardcore supporter of gun control, then I am a hardcore supporter of gun rights. Imagine what could have happened in Charlottesville, if some of those protesters had guns with them. They could have stopped the car even before the driver could injure anyone.

Concealed carry needs to be limited to EVERYBODY!

As long as only a few people have guns, they won't respect any of those who don't... except if they want to.

Nobody is going to live forever. Live longer by open carry and concealed carry at the same time. This way the few suicide terrorists among us will die. But the rest of the terrorists will respect us all enough to avoid attempting to use their guns inappropriately.

Charlottesville Mayor: Car Attack Shows Need To Limit Concealed Carry


Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer (D) addressed the August 12 car attack that killed Heather Heyer, suggesting it highlights the need to limit concealed carry.

He said he supports the Second Amendment, and is even “friends with many gun owners,” but he thinks more restrictions are necessary following the rally in which a car attack took an innocent life.

According to the Atlantic, Signer said, “While I am…a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, that right, like all Constitutional rights, comes with limits.” He then said, “Just as machine guns cannot be owned by civilians in this country…it should not be acceptable to open-carry or concealed-carry firearms at an event of the sort we saw last weekend.”

Wow. Someone in the mayor’s circle needs to tell him or his speech-writing team that there is no federal ban on machine gun ownership in the U.S., so long as the guns were manufactured pre-1986. In fact, machine guns are widely owned. There are states that ban ownership of machine guns, but law-abiding citizens who can afford a machine can most certainly–and most legally–own and shoot one in a state than does not prohibit ownership.

But the most egregious move was the mayor’s jump from machine guns to concealed carry (I thought he said he was “a strong supporter of the Second Amendment?”). Think about it; in a rally where not a single shot was fired—where the fatal attack was carried out with a vehicle—the Charlottesville Mayor finds reason to limit concealed carry of firearms and curtail the open carry of firearms as well.

I'm a hardcore supporter of gun control. I don't think carrying gun individually is the right way of protecting ourselves. It is rather one of the main reasons of public violance. We can not trust people to carry guns only to protect themselves. Unfortunately we are not there yet as humanity.

Must be prohibited

I believe that every psychologically healthy person should have a weapon so that he can protect himself. After all, most criminals have weapons even in countries where it is not allowed.

If I wrote this law, then a few things were there reflected. In - first complete verification of man that wants to purchase a weapon. Verification must conducted maximally meticulously. In - second I would check his near relation. There can be it helped in the folded situation.

Guns shouldnt be sold to the public, we just cant be sure what a person can do if he/she has a gun in his/her hands. The person might not be stable enough to handle such a violent thing. If guns are to be sold to the public then the buyer must be carefully surveyed, just to make sure that the gun that is to be selled is in good hands.

Well, why should guns be sold to the public anyway? Does the buyer have any valid reason and purpose for having such a thing? A person that buys guns that hasnt got anything to do with his profession is solely bought for the purpose of killing.. and buying guns for safety isnt a valid reason for having them.

Guns should be for cops, someone who has authority and has a purpose in using them.

Guns are very dangerous.
Only strong coutries can controll it, like USA, Canada, germany ... because they have a good police and a good army.
But in the developping countries, where the guns shouldn't be legalized, it will be a disaster if guns are in the street.

Gun control is a must and being responsible for holding and carrying a gun isn't enough. There should be some a lot of tests and scenarios that the gun society will do for the people who are wants to have permission to carry a gun.

Whiles we are always complaining about gun violence, we should bear in mind that it's does who have access to guns without the necessary documentation are the ones who commit these crimes, If the government in turn decides to keep the citizens from getting guns they are going to end up slaughtered by the criminals with guns.

I expect European gun laws to loosen up by necessity as the police will increasingly have difficulty protecting the civilian population. It is truly bizarre to me that people thinks its acceptable to rely on a 30-40 minute response time from law enforcement to deal with islamic butcherers. Law abiding citizens must be able to protect themselves.
