50 years ago yes.... today..most home invaders don't care if you are home or not...they want what they want and you have......and they will take it and kill you to get it



what's even worse.... Only 13.6% of burglaries in 2014 resulted in arrests.

Hillary stated during her campaign that she wanted UK, and Australia style gun bans, and confiscation. The goal of the Democrats is to abolish private, legal gun ownership in the U.S. incrementally.

I don't dictate what you can have, so I don't want YOU, or statist/fascist people like you dictating what I can have.

would also require eliminating / revising the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th amendments....its mighty fascist of them
Nobody is infringing on your rights. You have to realize that these kids and their supporters don't really care what names you call them. They were horrified at what happened to their classmates, and I don't blame them for taking a stand. I have a friend who was murdered with an AR15. Do I do everything I can to see that there is gun reform? You betcha. Call me snowflake, Marxist, Nazi, fascist, I could not care less. And you can scream all you want about rights, rights, rights. Sometimes you have to say enough is enough. Thankfully, from the number at today's marches, I am not alone.

Trump and the GOP just passed a bill doing just that (FIX NICS), then they banned bump stocks.

That's not the same as bans, and confiscations.

Nobody is telling you to do anything. Nobody cares what you do. It's the politicians and laws we are trying to impact.
