Dire emergency?

Is that like when a 14 inch Bowie is not enough?

Hoplophobe? I thought for sure a hoplophobe would be someone who was against hope and change.

Hoplophobia (pronounced /ˌhɒplɵˈfoʊbiə/), from the Greek hoplon, or weapon, is defined as the "fear of firearms"[1] or alternatively, an irrational fear of weapons in general, and describes a specific phobia.

Must be.
BTW you can use a 14 in Bowie to open a can of beans.

Do not attempt to use a baseball bat

All civil rights should be restored at the same time. When an offender gets his right to vote back he should get his right to keep and carry arms back.

Background checks should be eliminated, as should all infringements on this basic human right.

Generally speaking, if someone is too dangerous to trust with a weapon they should not be outside of an institution.

If a convict has completed his sentence, restore his rights.

Most of my family are hoplophobes, but a cousin, in particular is a real moonbat!

One day at her mother's house, she confronted me... "So, what's this I hear about you having a gun?" So I answered her, "yes, I'm a shooter." She said, "You have a gun in your house? Well, I'm never coming over to your house!" I replied, "Gloria, I don't have 'a gun' in my house: I've got 17 guns in my house, and you're not invited to my house!"

If the Second Amendment were treated with the respect accorded to the First, citizens would be issued firearms upon turning 18. DMVs would offer basic firearms along with voter registration, with a small fee charged for customized weapons (the way they do "vanity" plates).

Not any more, with the way the SCOTUS and congress have been raping the First Amendment...

I am a 55 year old grandmother of 5. This winter my husband and I completed and passed CCW training. Omaha's crime has really gone up (democrat mayors) so I will NEVER let anything happen to my grandkids or any innocent person I see in danger. Paul Horvick conducted the training and he was great. He's an attorney and a pastor. (I think he needed to get right with God after being an attorney) ONLY KIDDING. I learned so much in his class. I know I won't use a gun unless I am forced to. I also know what to do and not to do if I am forced to use my gun. If every law abiding citizen carried, crime would drop dramatically.

I don’t need to take a test. I admit that I am indeed a hoplophile.

Hmmm. Judging by my results, I'm apparently a hoplophile!
