Only the military and police need them!
Tammy Bruce is more of a man than you are, Mr. Felker.
Seriously.
I agree with Tammy here. The drug dealers aren't going to give up their guns, nor learn fire discipline, no matter how many laws are passed.
An "author never read the Constitution" BTTT
Thank you for your service, sailor.
Oh yeah, Mr. Felkner, that'll slow down the murder rate! We all know, after all, that if there were just more laws to keep people from legally obtaining weapons, it would have a profound impact on the criminals, who, by definition, don't worry much about the law anyway.
Yet another do-gooder with an idea that wasn't thought through at all. But hey, I'm sure it feels good to take stand, doesn't it, sir? And isn't that what it's all about? Who cares if it's effective or not, so long as it feels right?
Hey, Felker, I'll make a deal with you. If you agree to suspend the 1st, I'll agree to suspend the 2nd. What? No deal? You enjoy the ability to express your opinion in the press? Well, that right is only enforcable because of the 2nd.
Go whine in France.
Smells like a liar to me. A Marine referring to a weapon as a 'gun'?
Repeat after me: "THIS is my rifle! THIS is my gun! THIS is for fighting! THIS is for fun!"
FELKER IS A LIAR'S LIAR, HE IS NOT A VETERAN.
MEDICS didn't serve with Marines.
NAVY FREAKIN CORPSMAN DID.
And every real veteran knows the difference.
LIAR!!!!@
"As a start, it is imperative that in Pennsylvania handgun purchases be limited to one per month."
Yeah...That'll do the trick. (sarcasm)
Watta idiot. And you notice he said "as a start"?
Sounds like he's for incremental gun banning.
Someone should make a film showing precisely what would happen if guns were banned in this country.Maybe those with this mindset would watch and learn.They certainly don't know anything about history or they wouldn't push for something as disastrous as an all-out gun ban.
Or,then again,maybe they would,if they were for a nanny state.
Who said it was?
It may be part but not the heart.
The heart is Freedom.
But freedom must be defended.
"...to the rural communities of Pennsylvania."
D@mn those rootin' tootin' gun shootin' Amish! ;)
Maybe not owning a gun per se - but (self defense aside) being able to effectively resist a tyrannical government IS at the heart of being an American.
And until something more effective than "guns" comes along, they will have to do.
"Guns are making a combat zone of our streets."
Its not the guns, it's the criminal minorities spawned by DemocRAT social policies. Actually the crime rate correlates much better with the availability of minorities than gun availability. Perhaps we should ban them!
Guns are not making combat zones of our streets. Coddling gangs (urban terrorists) and criminals is. Allowing moral societal decay is.
Owning a gun is for self defense. Taking things into your own hands, accepting responsiblity to take care of yourself. THAT is at the heart of being an American.
Only the military and police need them!
What an ass! 99.98% of all LEGALY owned firearms are NEVER involved in a crime. So he wants to punish the 99.98%, what an ass.
And some of us who've defended ourselves against violence using guns do!
As a veteran, I want to see the dying stop.
I think God needs to make that decision. Dying happens.
...it is important that we have legislation, not influenced by the gun lobby,
Oh, please, no, do not listen to the millions of Americans who are pro-gun and belong to the NRA. They don't have the RIGHT to be heard!
it is imperative that in Pennsylvania handgun purchases be limited to one per month.
In a way, I'm for it as it creates a bottle-neck for guns to fall into criminal hands, but wouldn't a better way be to throw people in jail who buy guns to sell to criminals??
The death and injury caused by guns are unacceptable and unnecessary.
And how many people are saved by guns?
We must do all we can to stop the carnage.
And how many deaths are caused by automobile accidents, swimming pools and alcohol (let's pass a one beer a month law)?
You stop the dying by stopping liberalism, victimhood and crime
As a medic in the Marines (if in fact, you ever were such) you tried to save those injured by the Viet Cong and the NVA.
USMC may have taught you how to treat battle wounds, but it apparently didn't teach you how to think. Nor, apparently, did anyone else.
