Sad on Pred and SP. Simply me, me, me is their way.Um . . . you too are responsible to the collective common weal of America.I have a responsibility for MY good citizenship not yours or anyone else's.Skull Pilot, I own guns too. (by the way, that is a bad picture of you).
Just because you have not "killed anyone, broken any laws, or otherwise done nothing to violate the rights of another have" does not mean you do not have a responsibility for good citizenship.
You should be ashamed of being not willing to try to figure this problem out, SP. It involved and threatens every last one of us.
Sitting in the corner and going "oh my" is shameful.
What I suggest as a response to the violence problem in the country is dismissed by everyone here who is anti gun.
I for one refuse to give up any of my rights as a law abiding citizen simply because a fraction of a percent of people commit crimes
I am not anti-gun. I own guns.
No one is asking you or me not to own guns.
We both know that is not going to happen, so . . . there has to be a better way than the one in which we are headed.
The only thing I can control or even want to control is my own behavior.
I have no desire to tell other people how to live their lives with the one exception being that no one is permitted to violate the rights of another. Personally I believe there should be extremely harsh punishment for those that do violate the rights of others but that belief happens to be in the extreme minority these days
So I will continue to fight for gun rights. Shit I'm actually considering joining the NRA because in all reality it seems that it is the only private organization actually fighting for the rights of citizens.
