February 17, 200818 yr Adolph Hitler 1935 For the first time in history a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient and the world will follow our lead to the future! Not so much.
February 17, 200818 yr As far as registration......It's none of the governments business how many guns I own. As far as laws............They only effect law abiding citizens. I love my 2nd amendment rights. "Shall not be infringed", Wonder what that means?? IMO this gets Hillary beat. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." I love that the whole amendment is never used by the NRA types. I am all for law-abiding citizens owning guns, but the whole amendment is about a militia and that is now the National Guard.
February 17, 200818 yr I (for the 500 millionth time), do not have a problem with the citizenry having guns. I do, however, have a problem with any and all being allowed to have guns, and there be no accountability for carelessness. You want a gun? Go ahead. But I believe you better know how to use it, and be prepared for consequences if you are careless in either it's use or storage. I believe that assault weapons are wholly impractical for a "regular" citizen. I believe that (as HHSDad once proposed), a national ballistics registry is appropriate. I also believe that unlike Nazi Germany, our country's governmental checks and balance system makes it unlikely anything near what happened in Germany would happen again. I believe it's pushing the limits of credibility to say "Better safe than sorry", relative to such a fear in this day and age.

I believe that somewhere in the darkest night, a candle glows. I believe for everyone who goes astray, someone will come, to show the way. I believe...I believe!

Everyone else can choose as they see fit!!!!

National guard, I love it.. Who exactly controls the National guard????? I'll take my chances with legally armed general pop. You can do as you wish. By all means show your love of guns and gun ownership by voting for Hillary
February 17, 200818 yr Who exactly controls the National guard?The people. This isn't the 18th century; therefore, no need for grandpa to hide his possum shooter.
February 17, 200818 yr The people. This isn't the 18th century; therefore, no need for grandpa to hide his possum shooter. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... So the ppl control how the National Guard is used?? Interesting???????????? I Wonder how many of the National guard voluntered to go to the middle east?????
February 17, 200818 yr I Wonder how many of the National guard voluntered to go to the middle east?????Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......every last one of them.
February 17, 200818 yr Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......every last one of them. LOL.... Absolutely, they volunteer to serve their country. Have they a choice how they are used??????????????????????????????????? Enlighten me please.
February 17, 200818 yr Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......every last one of them. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....no. But that's another issue.

Anyone with any mechanical ability can negate the ballistics comparision with a file and a piece of sand paper, or throw the barrel away and replace it. Rendering that test useless! Assault weapons ? They just look mean, so don't be fulled by that. ie...AK47 caliber 95% of the time is 7.62x39, or 308 short. About the same as grandpas 30-30. Just holds more shells,usually 30. I would rather have a742 Remington in 30-06 or 308. They also have 30 round clips for those, and they are much prettier! And will do much more damage. The crazys that go on a killing spree could kill more people if they drove a big truck into a crowd leaving a sports arena ! Like Earl Pitts says : WAKE UP AMERICA !!
February 17, 200818 yr I'll make this post then say no more on the topic. Ask a veteran their feelings on this topic.
February 17, 200818 yr Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....no. But that's another issue. HHSDAD If they have volunteered for the Armed Services in the last 5-6 Years.. They know they will be going to the Middle East..... It's not a matter of WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.... They signed up to defend there country and thats what there being called to do.... BTW, Normal American Citizens Do Not Need Assult Rifles... I agree and think that a tighter ban needs to be applied on them.... There are no Milita's Nowadays UNLESS it's Radical Group(s) Taliban, Domestic Terrorist....:scared::eek: Why and with good reason(s) do Americans need Fully Automatic Weapons???? :creepy:
