For Americans, there's danger lurking at every turn, so I guess you better be prepared to defend yourself. Me or Them? Better have my gun (or arsenal of them).

The RIGHT to shoot and kill is paramount and ridiculous. That's how you get the WRONG DOORBELL. That's how you get the WRONG DRIVEWAY. That's how you get the WRONG CAR. That's how your kid's ball rolled into the WRONG YARD.

Americans can't handle firearms safely.

if they can’t handle guns, then they can’t handle knives or scissors. and when we confiscate all the guns, no illegal ones will ever make it through our porous border

I see you watched that lame segment on MSNBC yesterday and are dutifully parroting it.

There are 340 million people in this country. Getting shot in the wrong driveway is EXCEPTIONALLY rare.

There are nutcases out there though. That's why we have the second amendment.

I'm sorry but you (actually the MSNBC hosts), are not smarter than Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Ben Franklin.

So, what's the increase in shootings vs. last year...or are you just weighing in now because of some acceptably publicized (mostly white folks and an honor student) shootings of a few people out of 330million people?

I mean, who gives a crap if poor young black guys get shot right?

But hey, I'll give you the excuse I hear here often, it used to be way worse back in the 80's when they where shooting 3x as many poor young black guys so it's ok.

Sadly, you just really don't grasp the situation. Laws are not going to stop 90+% of the shootings in the US leaving us with the same garbage we see in other countries without such severe gang shootings.

P.S. By your logic, we should ban all Italians from driving.

P.S.S. Maybe by your logic we need to ban certain ethnic groups from European countries? You sound really fascist.

Wake me up when 20,000 people are killed by scissors.


If you were building up a newly formed nation you wouldn't include a second amendment, we live in the past.

Please take some time and read the Constitution of the United State of America. If you do not wish to abide by this Constitution find another place to live. If you disagree with parts of the Constitution the Founders in their Wisdom created a method to change it. Getting tired of all this anti Gun stuff. Stop being lazy and mobilize get off your Arse, contact like supporters across the nation and try to get it Changed. But dont you dare keep going after my rights and the rights of every other American because YOU Feel differently. Get enough people who agree with you and change it, if you can.

Americans can't handle firearms safely.

79,950,000 American gun owners have never shot and killed anyone. Doing the math for you, that is 99.5% of all American gun owners.

Of the remaining 50,000 or one-half of one percent of gun owners, I will leave it to you to guess how many are violent hardened criminal gang-bangers, and how many are just Joe Sixpack who got mad or had an accident or made a mistake.

Why is it news when an innocent man or woman is shot and killed ringing the wrong doorbell or driving up the wrong alley. Answer - because it is the 1 in 1,000 negligent innocent killing.
