Some chick here just got a bad haircut and wanted to kill the stylist. She grabbed her boy friend's gun and attempted to shoot the guy but since she was clueless it didn't go off. This was not a "gun lover" you so love to toss around.
You are so afraid of gun owners it's hilarious.
So she decided to grab a gun in a moment of anger and shoot someone over a bad haircut? Sounds like a perfectly normal thing to do. I wonder if she would have sprayed the stylist with Aquanet if the gun hadn't been available? That stuff can be pretty deadly...
The issue is the mental illness. And anyone can have a mental illness.
However, when a gun enthusiast develops mental illness he may have a proclivity to use the guns he loves. In other words the gun culture plays a role in the abnormal mind of people with mental illness. That is why I always pray a gun lover does not develop mental illness.
When was the last time you saw a non-gunlover go postal? When they go nuts they may do crazy things, but generally they do not have the firepower to do a lot a harm since they may not even know how to handle a pistol or a rifle.
The issue is that you CAN NOT BAN GUNS, period end of story. Even if you somehow managed to legally do it you will NEVER get them out of the hands of criminals. Liberals seem completely incapable of accepting that criminals don't follow laws.
A baseball bat is not that effective for stopping a massacre, but armed civilians are.

Can you give me a example of who involved in the shootings here in America had been a member of NRA or a large amount of guns in their possession, as in their home.
I recall most took the guns from other people, gun lovers don't take other people's guns.......I am waiting for the example of how you describe any of these shooters as "gun lovers."

What is your profile and are you on any medication, including any over the counter product? I am sure I can find some reason to evaluate you every 3 months. You must forget many of these shooters were already being treated and many were already known to be a possible threat to society, yet the cries were ignored.....so lets make more laws to not follow and blame guns and gun owners.

I worry more about getting attacked by some dog lovers pet.
you absolutely ARE proposing taking my rights away.
No, your right to have guns will remain intact. However, YOU should not own a gun whose only purpose is to kill other humans.
Guns should be for hunting and target practice, nothing else.

i can still kill a lot of people in a fairly short period of time if i chose to. however i wouldnt use something as simple as a firearm if i wanted to kill a large number of people. i would rather use the same method mcveigh did in oaklahoma city. i might even add a chemical or biological component to the mix for even more devestation.
This is the scary part, this sort of philosophy and gun obsession is a dangerous combination with the human condition. What happens if you become disappointed on life, depressed, unemployed, or if your woman leaves you? How will you cope when life handles you a bad turn? Will the gun obsession influence your behavior?
Clearly, you have not been into a shooting range lately. The biggest demographic is young minorities.
