But if we're talking politics, things get a lot more muddled. I mean a lot of people like guns but still approve of some Anti-Gun legislation or Policies by politicians.


    As for me; I'm Pro-Gun, but also Pro-Common Sense. I recognize that guns are fun to shoot and great for hunting and self-defense, but some of the things are just ridiculous. No one needs an M-61 Vulcan to hunt deer, and the good guy with a gun doesn't always stop the bad guy with a gun (there are many cases where the good guy was mistaken for the bad guy by the police). That said, with the rise is Pro-Gun vs. Anti-Gun debates and very Pro-Gun legislation in the U.S. there has been a rise in pure stupidity of people with guns. Which, in turn, hasn't helped the cause when debating against Anti-Gun people. Outside of all the idiots running around with AR-15's and AK-47's (usually all semi-automatic), and dumb kids shooting themselves while taking a self with a gun. Why oh why did Congress repeal the law that forced the Social Security Administration to turn over documents of anyone deemed mentally unfit to take care of themselves to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System? I mean as Pro-Gun as I am, I don't believe that people who receive disability funds and have them managed by someone else because they are too mentally impaired to manage their own finances should be able to have a gun.
    I just do not think they're necessary. Nor do I like the use of bombs to remain a superior country. Look what happened in Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday. Nearly 300 dead. Disgusting!

    I definitely agree that anyone who mishandles a gun shouldn't be allowed to use them (not that criminals aren't going to get behind a wheel or their hands on a gun anyway but there's only so much we can do). In fact, I'm also strongly in favor of a class/test to be able to purchase a gun in the first place, much like getting a license to drive.

    The necessity of guns outside of war has been driven down a lot. Outside of hunting and practice, they don't get a lot of use. in terms of protection against other humans, the arguments are vague and don't have any analytical data to support or oppose any side. in terms of protection against animals, it doesn't make sense in areas in most of the US, particularly the urban areas. But in some areas in the US it does help. In the South with snakes, the north with bears, or Alaska with anything...

    I don't mind people having guns for hunting, but I also think that the US should be like Germany where people have to practice at the range, prove they know how to operate a gun safely, and be held accountable for their actions. But I also believe some parts of the German gun laws are a bit much, like have to qualify for every gun you own and operate regardless of type, make, or model.

    Don't you need a gun license too? And don't they make you not carry if you misuse guns or commit crimes?
    Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

    Depends on where you live in regards to the license. Additionally, criminals gonna criminal, so no one can make anyone not carry a gun - those laws only make it more difficult to legally obtain one and have a harsher punishment if caught with one, but I have to say my experience purchasing guns in Colorado was too easy - my husband bought it, picked it up (so only he had the background test) and handed it to me. I wouldn't have any issues making the purchase myself since I don't have a record, but there's very little stopping me or my husband (or anyone else) from purchasing and selling a gun for a profit to someone who can't legally obtain it otherwise.
