We all know, well those of us with common sense, that the vast majority of shootings are carried out by criminals, gang members and the deranged that are using illegally obtained and held guns. The vast majority of law abiding citizen gun owners would never us their firearms in a criminal way.

It all boils down to the Democrats have made the streets unsafe with their soft on crime policies and people are afraid. People are tired of being victims and with the Democrats Defunding the Police they have left us without much choice.



No one wants to shoot anyone but when some loser is beating down your door to get to you for robbery, rape or murder it sure is a comfort knowing that you can defend yourself if you are forced to.
LOL...Nowwww, Todd, we all know that "common sense" is the mantra of the hoplophobes. You mut be thinking of some other trait. We all know "common sense" means disarming folks like you and I and leaving criminals to obtain firearms when and how they wish. Because you and I both know (in our hearts) that those poor trod upon lawbreakers will rush down to register, or turn in any and all weapons they possess upon passage of stricter controls. It would be LAW after all. Yes indeed, law that punishes these varmints would be victims to a greater level than they themselves would ever have to fret upon. "Common sense" ...right?

Perhaps to them that would see solid citizens disarmed and are willing to sacrifice us upon the altar of neo Democrat/progressive policy. After all just think how much safer we will be when we can't defend ourselves and the "rights" of criminal bipreds supercede our own. They just tryin' to make a livin'. We owe them that don't we? After keeping them down and denying them opportunity. It's just the way the socio/economic wheel spins...ain't it?

Besides you can't hunt deer with an AR or a Glock so what do we possibly need such firearms for? Common sense...yet again. The problem is rooted in that folks like us, regular every day American working folks, just refuse to accept and sign on to the "new" definition of common sense. Why oh why can we not just accept as fact what these daffy rodents are telling us? They KNOW what is best for us and we just can't see past our ingrained thought processes that were obsolete at the beginning of the 19th century. We just ain't "enlightened" enough as we were not indoctrinated...errr, educated, in the halls of elite academia. Just as the definition of what a woman is has ...evolved...so has common sense.

See? Understand now? If you do please enlighten (can I use that word?) me and we can sally forth both safe in our new found heavenly glow with which we can allow others to bask and come to know the secrets of the universe.
