it's not about guns, it's about control.

Perhaps, but I think it’s more of a religious campaign. I think gun banners believe that guns are a contaminant in society. Therefore, any gun ban, regardless of it’s effect on crime, is a step towards a more perfect society.

I propose MANDATORY firearm ownership and carry as a solution to mass killings.

Who in his right mind would fire into a crown knowing EVERY ONE OF THEM was armed?

This would allow us to do away with the venomous TSA as well.

All this craziness about another ban. I’d like to hear from any pro-ban genius that exact plan to get illegal weapons from the criminals and I’d like to see the evidence that banning another weapon type will somehow lower the crime rate.

Decent article but somewhat out of date. It fails to note that crime other than murder in Britain now exceeds the US http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/law-and-order/7922755/England-has-worse-crime-rate-than-the-US-says-Civitas-study.html The lack of personal protection has cause open season on vulnerable populations like women and the elderly.

Obama Says He Ran For Re-election So He Could Have “Men With Guns” Around To Protect His Daughters…

Guns to protect our kids = Bad. Guns to protect his kids = Good.

Via Daily Mail:

President Barack Obama revealed the ‘real reason’ he wanted a second term as president is because his daughter Malia, age 14, is about to start dating boys.

‘One of the main incentives of running was continued Secret Service protection so we can have men with guns around at all times,’ the father of two joked.

The President and First Lady delved into their personal lives – including how they keep ‘the fire going’ in their marriage – during a chat with ABC’s Barbara Walters, their first sit-down interview since the election.

It has always been about handguns. Assault rifles was just a decoy to try and get their anti-gun foot in the door.

Once they get a ban on AWs then they will use the same reasons to go after handguns.

John Kennedy killed with a 5 shot bolt action rifle.

Bobby Kennedy killed with a .22 Iver Johnson Cadet revolver.

George Wallace wounded with a 5 shot Charter Arms .38spl.

Gerald Ford attacked with a 7 shot 1911 semi auto.

Edmond OK post office with two National Guard 7 shot 1911 pistols.

Ronald Reagan and Jim Brady shot with an RG-14 .22 pistol.

Ronald Gene Simmons killed his family and neighbors...H&R .22 revolver and a Ruger .22 revolver. Also used a strangling cord and two hammers.

What do they all have in common? NONE over 9 rounds, yet after each one came a cry of panic to ban them.
