No one should tell me I can't defend my own property or family--I cheer the New Yorkers who shoot thieves that break into their houses. (Yes, I lived in NYC once--there's some perspective for you.)<br /><br />I definitely agree with you on that second point though. That's why there are checks and balances when issuing a license.

I just have two concerns. <br />1) Knowing the huge number of ignorant hotheads in the US -- just read the comments on Yahoo articles, you'll see an incredible number of stupid, intolerant trolls with mean tempers who'd shoot anyone that disagrees with them if they could. I see a lot of neighbor dispute or domestic fights being settled with guns.<br />2) Also, you can't give guns to people with mental illnesses. Everyone in Sandy Hook would still be alive if the mom hadn't decided it would teach her mentally ill child "responsibility" to learn to load and fire guns, which she conveniently kept in the house. Obviously, mentally ill people <i>are not</i> capable of handling the responsibility.

I thought it silly if in the middle of the night I had to run over there to get the gun, and then run over to another place and grab the ammo. Better I had a Louisville Slugger behind the bed! ;)<br />I don't have an issue if Americans have them. I just wish we could do a better job of keeping them out of the hands of evildoers. I believe it was the latest James Bond film where the gun would only fire in Bond's hands. Perhaps one day we'll all have that technology and we'll have much less to report during the local news...<br /><br />-Jimmy James Garcia Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559119178720751963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568183101637683554.post-66920595332426042032013-08-10T09:00:19.048-04:002013-08-10T09:00:19.048-04:00LOL.
