Oh boy. So at least you're a gun fondler, just one that doesn't touch them as often. Fine.
And please, don't start with the typical bs about how patriotic you are, and how great an American are, and don't be telling me about your flag lapel pin, and yada yada, bs, bs. There's no bigger amount of crap than the continuous and false patriotic declarationa gun fondlers love to use. To prove something, no doubt.
Where did i say something about being patriotic? I am. I have a good friend who is quite liberal in his politics. We both served in the military and in Desert Storm. He has since been a career civil servant. He is as patriotic as I am. He loves the same country I do.
I dont play silly games my sexually deviant talking C-D friend.
I think you may need to see someone about your 'issues'.
The sound of a bolt slamming home on an AR-15 isn't exactly welcoming either. A woman that I know from my gun club is about 5'1" and probably weighs around 100 lbs. For her shooting a 12 gauge would be like getting hit in the shoulder with a sledge hammer. Her home defense gun is an AR-15. You clearly know nothing about guns.
I know that you are 25X more likely to kill one of your own than you are to kill an intruder with a gun.
BTW, I get some information from my brothers. One is a detective with a city police dept and the other one is an FBI agent in Washington DC and has been with them for close to 30 years. They both recommend shotguns if you feel you need a gun. But they both recommend against guns in the home.
Actually, if you want to save lives in your home you are something like 5000x more likely to save someone's life with an AED and CPR training than with a gun. An AED costs about the same as a gun.
Have you heard "Hope for the best, prepare for the worse"?
I don't sleep with my eyes open. Sure, I have a job, save what money I can, make sure I have friends just in case I need them, etc. etc. I don't keep a bunker somewhere.
During the Rodney King riots, I am sure the store owners who were standing on the sidewalks fighting gangs of looters to save their businesses and their ability to support themselves would be very grateful to have more than a 10 shot clip.
You really never know what protecting yourself is going to entail. In times of disaster, a peaceful neighborhood can turn into a war zone very rapidly, and your ability to engage multiple targets may very well determine if you survive or not.

This is a truly moronic statement, perhaps you would like to back it up with some factual statistics.
