So do I. And that's gun control.


Sometimes, good law is too.
Here's a question for you. When was the last time someone wanted to shoot people and decided not to because they didn't want to get caught with an illegal gun?

Gun nut is a euphemism for an enthusiast who becomes a gun addict.

ad·dic·tion [uh-dik-shuh n]
the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma.

Owning a gun doesn't make you brave, if anything it shows you are afraid.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

The so called "Assault Weapon Ban" had been in place between 1994 and 2004 for 10 years. The result, from the government's own analysis, is negligible at best.

Whoever is pushing that should be called "nuts."

Heaven help you if you have one and might consider getting another. To idiot lefty morons, those people are completely over the edge.

The real nuts are those who call other people 'gun nuts'.
Yes and they are FUDGIN full of it also.

I will protect my family any day with the use of a gun, the loonies, those who are making something out of nothing can use their gosh dang finger, lets see what kind of damage that can do next to a gun. I can see it now someone breaks into your home, about to shoot you, going to shoot back with your finger, because todays crimianl, will kill you on the spot, or if you surpirse them.

The guns we own are for the protection of keeping my family safe, when you have had two family members murdered, and 2 previous homes broken into, you do what is best for you own family, and to hell with what anyone else feels. Beat to the tune of your own drum, no one likes it tough, as long as you are responsible.

The problem with nuts is that they don't usually know they're nuts. That's why they're nuts. And the problem with gun nuts is that they are armed and nuts.

They hold your weapon together and assist in attaching cool stuff like lasers, optics, etc.

That is my definition of a "gun" nut.
