I live in the country and no, I haven't seen a lot of crime, thank God. If I lived in the city I might feel differently. I have no problem with anyone who wants or feels the need to carry a gun. I only said we see them during hunting season. Your problemo, not mine.

I really must apologize to you. I don't have any sort of a problem with you. At all. I didn't mean to sound so harsh in my original post to you. I just would like to get across the idea that first off, crime is everywhere...and is increasingly inching it's way into rural America. The Crips & the Bloods and MS13 are popping up in places like IOWA to start meth labs and branches of youth gangs. I also want you to be cognizant of the need to affirm gun ownership so that we as Americans and as FREEPERS present a united front. Somebody could twist your words to say: See THIS freeper is obviously a sensible gunowner...she knows that guns are for hunting and not carrying for self defense...in fact SHE doesn't even know anybody who carries...so obviously this is a characteristic of the lunatic fringe and those are the folks we're really worried about so let's push this legislation.... Do you see? I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to be offensive.
