Planting a little doubt in the criminal and empowering the law abiding citizen is the way to go. And besides, we all know (or should know) that most criminals don't obtain guns by legal means anyway.

What?? You mean the shooter didn't go thru the background check and waiting period, didn't take his weapon down to the cop shop and have it checked over? But...but they told me I couldn't have a handgun unless I did that. Said it was the LAW!

There oughta be a law: No laws for guns, everyone who wants to, carries. We should at least create the illusion of an even playing field.

I actually agree with you on this; no laws for gun owners because most of the laws, in fact all laws are 'feel good'. Create an 'even playing field'. But, to carry it further, I would say there should be now laws regarding speech, religion, et al.

Again, I'm sure I would be at odds with most here because I think Congress is out of line with the fines on 'indecent behavior', etc.

Hell, we are so far past anything based on 'original intent' and have been for nearly 100 years sometimes I just don't know what to think.. just read Walter E. Williams and calm myself, I guess.
