Cool. So you shouldn't own one, then.

I'm a trained and responsible adult, so I will.

Not true at all. Another liberal LIE. Show me the studies. Guns don't kill. People do.

NBA star and gun control proponent LeBron James is critical of private citizens carrying guns for self-defense, but employs “at least 10 armed security personnel” at his home for defense of himself and his family.

LeBron James, Amy Schumer, Alyssa Milano, Rosie O'Donnell...the list of these anti-gun hypocrites who propose gun control for the commoners goes on and on. They even demand a fleet of armed guards at their botox parades...er, award shows.

I agree, and I believe it comes from the NRA's scare tactics and the sky is falling rhetoric whenever anyone even hints at gun legislation.

So being a great basketball player make him an expert on guns? Not a chance.


More hypocrisy from the privileged elite.

All the elite anti-gun people have armed people, or are armed themselves.
They like easy prey.

In self defense too. A small woman has little chance against a large man unless she's armed. Especially if her psycho ex is already armed. A protection order is just a piece of useless paper.

Well, I do see your point, but to be fair.... hiring trained, armed guards is a bit different than random people floating around carrying guns and nobody knowing how qualified they are to use them.
