lies and spreading fear

the work of scientists and data.

it shouldn't take a little bit of logic to understand the fact that your chance of being killed by homicide in the US is 4.7 in 100k and 90% of that are criminals shooting criminals



its no conspiracy. God you only have to look at trial runs of gun control like places in Australia. . .its just facts. Your arguing the sky is green, when we all can look up at it being blue

and no, its not blue because of some broad conspiracy against you

its just BLUE

Guns in home increase suicide, homicide risk – The Chart - CNN.com Blogs




and by the way. If the US govt decided to turn against you and become a Nazi era level dictatorship, your holding onto a few guns wouldn't sway anyone from anything. Most people would take the patriotic banner and sell you out as traitors. Those who fight would be dealt with. Your not holding onto guns to protect from some boogeyman. . . .thats just stupid. (God Afghans have lots of guns, and it never stopped them from being invaded)

1 boogeyman isn't a few

plus his removal of guns isn't for some nefarious plan to take over your house by UN troops directed by stickers on stop signs and black helicopters



he just doesn't want people to get shot

That's the problem, some people should be shot. The underlying problem here is that people like you don't think anyone should ever be shot for any reason and I greatly disagree for good reason. There are plenty people in this country who do things that warrant a gun shot wound, I don't live in some fairy tale world where we all just call the police and everything is ok.

If someone kicks in my front door they will get shot, they should get shot and they made a choice that ultimately lead to them getting shot. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, some people should get shot.

I would rather look at gun control places like Chicago, where gun control has done nothing whatsoever to stop gun violence but it sure has prevented a lot of good people from defending themselves and their homes. The facts simply don't support your rants, neither does the Constitution.

What if that person at your front door was just knocking frantically, seeking help after a car accident because they have a dead phone? Do you blow their brains out?

Let me ask you this , why are career criminals and gang members always back on the streets? Its a revolving door for criminals.

Also when is the last time a criminal has followed any rules ?

Last but not least, have you ever been robbed , shot at , held at gun point , or have your house broken into?
