On the news, in washington it is illegal to own a gun. I think they should be allowed I mean Murderers are going to be able to get them anyway they're always black markets for them but what about the citizens who can't pro tect them selves???


What do you think???

I'm getting one. Regardless of the law, I'm getting one. The risk of getting caught is okay if I need it.

If I'm ever transporting something that's worth more than $200 or is big and looks valuable, I'm going to have a gun. Even if I'm under 18, or the law says you can't have a gun.

I like to solve getting attacked with seriously wounding the other person. Words never work in these situations.

People with no mental disorders or criminal records should be allowed to own a gun. We don't want every temperamental bipolar person owning a 12-gauge.

Outlawing guns means only outlaws will have guns.

It's a felony to own a gun if you're a convicted felon.

So that's covered.

At least in America.

Outlawing guns to stop crimes is like outlawing vehicles to stop accidents.

I think this is stupid because yes criminals will always get guns one way or another so making it legal to buy it or own it either way he is going to get it. Now to buy it you cant be a felon and when you go to get the permit they will check that thoroughly and when you go to buy it you have to show a permit or something showing you are allowed to own a gun and unless the guy is bribed or bought they wont sell it to you.

Very true. I've seen more people get killed by being stabbed than with a gun. I don't see many laws to protect people from sharp objects.

I've alwais found the american's fondness for firearms fashinating.
Why are you compelled to own a gun? America is no warzone, yet a lot of americans are armed. Isn't that a little dangerous?
- Yes guns are illegal in Italy, before you ask, you need to demonstrate REAL need of ANY weapon to be carried. -

"Amarica, born and nurtured in war". That whould be one reason. For the others, guns give:
Protection
Peace of mind
Haratige (great grandpas gun and such)
Recreation (hunting target shooting ect)
Protects them from opresive govornments (not likly to happen, but hey its in the constitiution...)
Usefull for cops
Its cool (or some people think it is...)

And I whould like to point out that in the constitution guns are planned to be used in malitias, but the law stands.

If the law-abiding citizens had there guns taken away, then the only ones with guns whould be the outlaws, and I disslike that idia.

Also, I forgot the cuntry, but its a nutral cuntry that every male is required to serve in the malitia in a certain age spectrum, thus they all have guns, and they have one of the lowest murder rates.

Guns keep criminals from breaking into your house. Watch Penn and Teller's Bull Shit (show) on gun control. You will learn a thing or two.
