Fed up with watching loved ones die from handgun violence? (Here we go again!)
Handgun-Free America ^

Posted on 11/14/2002 7:59:32 PM PST by Draakan

Handgun-Free America is taking a new approach to the handgun epidemic in America. While the gun control community focuses on efforts to increase registrations, permits, background checks and gun safety, these actions all reaffirm (and encourage) the right of the individual to possess these lethal weapons. We have decided that it's time to take a stand - let's ban handguns now!

A new non-profit antigun organization! Looks like the Communist are looking for an issue to cry about. I didn't want to post the whole thing, but here is the link if you can read this garbage.

I checked out their link page, some of the organizations listed there raised some red flags.

"Handgun-Free America is a 501c3 charitable organization.
All contributions to Handgun-Free America are tax deductible"

Why???

Well, I'd like to see an end to the handgun killings in my family, but Dad sez he just can't see giving up the crack dealership until he has enough for retirement. Then, you know, all of us siblings have big plans for how the smuggling, coke and prostitution rackets ought to be run. Honestly, it gets harder every day to make a go of things without an uncle or brother-in-law trying to blow your brains out every day. I for one am damn glad progressive politics are trying to do something for me - an average American.

Americans never cease to amaze me. Seems that some do all in the power to try to take away the freedom and liberty we enjoy in this country.

Shoot! (no pun intended)

I had just decided, after reading all the recent FBI warnings and figuring we're in for it, that I'm gonna buy a handgun. Talk about your timing!

One thing to remember.... they advertise on google and pay for every click-through, up to their daily max.

Not that I would suggest such a thing of course.

Just to keep things in perspective. The Bureau of Justice in the U.S. Justice Department annually publishes a book of data on all crime. There are more categories than I thought existed, i.e., income level, education, race, gender, etc.

In the category of WEAPON RELATED VIOLENT CRIME, the most current statistics (FY2000) show the following:

Not sure if a weapon uses = 7%
Total NON_FIREARM = 17.5%
TOTAL FIREARM = 7.5%
NO WEAPON USED = 68%

Where is the outcry from the pimps of the election industry and their minions in the anti-gun movement for the 68% category?

What a brilliant idea! Think it will work any better than the War on Drugs? Prohibition? I mean, just how stupid are you guys?

I tell you it is just awful. Those darned handguns keep getting into the house and killing my loved ones. I am fed up.

I have done everything in my power to keep them out. I keep the doors locked and have sealed every hole large enough for a handgun to sneak in. I sometimes think they can do just like mice and dislocate their shoulder blades so they can slip through any hole.

Just last week we had three, maybe four loved ones killed by those pesky handguns. Enough is Enough.

Damn! When I heard "Handgun Free America" I almost wet my pants with glee. Imagine my disappointment when I found out they did not really intend to give away free handguns!

Bummer dude...

Amazing. No one I know has ever lost a relative to a handgun. (Knock on wood). I would hope that my relatives will eventually be able to legally carry a handgun so they do not become a victim of a criminal with whatever weapon they chose. But that is only a dream because I live in Maryland.
