Re: Right to bear arms?
i dont know why people dont want to realize that if you make outlaw guns crime will not drop. if you make them ilegal honest people will cease to own them, but then they are not the ones out using them in a ilegal way. the people that use them ilegaly will continue to use them knowing that the innocent people that they are attacking will no longer have guns to stop them. so basicly outlawing them will just make crime easier.

If an 'honest' person is living in a bad area, they will find a way to protect themselves and their family. That, to them, is honest. Everyone breaks the law, there's not a single truly honest person in this world because of it.
Even if it means J-Walking. ;)

Re: Right to bear arms?
Im pretty sure more people than you know break the law everyday. Yea going over the speed limit thats breakin the law. so many things these days are against the law you have to work very hard NOT to break the law.

Re: Right to bear arms?
guns dont kill people. people kill people. shouldnt punish all gun owners bc a couple stupid people go around killing others.

Though I agree, your logic is slightly flawed.
There are likely more people who use guns to kill people then there are law-abiding gun owners (ex; hunters, shooters, officers).

yeah, but not letting anyone have guns still isnt the solution to the problem. how are you going to get someone with a gun to give it up?? its kinda hard. i wouldnt give my gun up if someone came to my house and tried to take it. and i still dont think theres more ppl using guns for harm, than ppl using them for good.

Technically the only people using guns for good are officers, and there are definitely more people in crime.
However, things like hunting and protection are different. They aren't doing anything 'good' by killing something but it may be for their hobby or families sake.
I do agree that we have the right to bear arms. Don't worry.
But everyone says it about protecting their family from crime. What I want to know, is how many people have actually needed to use guns to protect themselves or their family? I haven't heard of many cases so I'm slightly confused.
