According to the CDC there were 335,609 deaths from firearms during the past decade. And there were another 755,959 non-fatal injuries from firearms during the same period.

How many of those involve police or other LEOs performing their duties?

Just went to my local Krogers and there must be ten different gun magazines in there on the shelfs have of which have assult style weapons on the cover and other provocative images. More gun mags than news mags or car mags! We have a serious problem with glamourising guns IMHO.

Its very true a majority of guns used in Mexico are smuggled in from AZ likewise guns used in crimes in NYC.

Just by tightening gun laws in AZ you could lower the gunshot death rate in the US and Mexico. Yet still all you hear from the lunatics in AZ is BS about their individual freedoms. Selfish to the extreme.

And I'm sure guns will magically start disappearing from Mexico and the criminals will give up. Because that's what criminals do right?

With some people its never the guns fault...its always something else. Mental health, video games, bad parenting, etc etc. But its never the guns. The guns are untouchable. No matter that eons ago when the chinese invented gun power and guns it was for the sole purpose of killing people.

Semi-automatic can not pump out up to 60 rounds per minute. And the guns do not decide to shoot someone on their own. A PERSON pulled the trigger. What ever happened to being responsible for your own actions? I was raised in a house with fully loaded guns in various places in the house and I was taught NOT TO TOUCH THEM!

You are one person...not everyone is like you. Sometimes people that aren't responsible for their own actions can get their hands on an assault rifle and we all have seen the results. It's really time to stop with the silliness and take a stand on this issue if we want to save lives - that's the issue now, not whether you have the right to own one.

When someone comes up with an actual valid reason for owning an assault weapon please let me know...and killing hogs is not valid.

I hope you all know all these threats of banning guns do is convince people that were on the fence about buying one to go out and buy one or more due to the threat of a ban. Every time these rumors start swirling guns and ammo start flying off the shelf. I went to buy ammo today and they had nearly cleared out the store. But little do you know, that's the whole point of all of these gun ban rumors to begin with.

I still think zombies should be reason enough.

More seriously ... the only people I personally know who own assault weapons are all former military, and I have no issue with them collecting weapons that they were formally trained for in the service of our country.

Stoping Statists and Fascists from abusing and murdering me and my fellow man. Gun rights are not about hunting they are all about stopping the government.


"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States." Noah Webster


Sad to see so many Fascists in this thread.

Let me get this straight - u think ur going to stop the GOVERNMENT by FORCE (i.e., use of gunfire)? U know the governmt has whole armies and FBI and CIA, right? I propose that u r no match, right? what do u think u r going to be able to stop/control/change as relates to government in 2013 (not 1713) with a GUN???????

For all of these ppl quoting the Constitution and all of these old quotes and ppl and ideas from the 1700s and 1800s, pls know that the law and the principles that guide it is a constantly moving target that is shaped by the latest case law (court ruling) on the matter. U can't just take the 2nd amendment, read it in isolation and decide u know what it means in all kinds of situations. The Constitution is written in broad strokes (that was intentional). Then, it is further elucidated by case law. To really know what gun rights exists, etc, u don't look at the Constitutional in isolation but, rather, the Const and then the recent cases in ur state/area, etc.

U don't interpret the law, judges do. Get it?

Your logic is flawed in many ways but ill just point out one. What do you think the odds of those FBI, CIA and even military members turning guns on their on own friends and family in the US because they were told to do so? And that's not the point here anyways.
