Well said Cat! I think this thread needs to end on a positive note. Merry Christmas all you wagonnuts! Thanks for being here and being a part of our family. I am grateful to have you all. Dewey.
here is a link to a really good read about guns from a self described liberal. http://kontradictions.wordpress.com/2012/08/09/why-not-renew-the-assault-weapons-ban-well-ill-tell-you/ i'll say nothing more other than Merry Christmas.
Man you guys are getting stressed out. I've mentioned I own wepons myself. For me its because I don't live on a farm, I don't live in a field or even a forest. I am maybe 20 minutes from a major US city. San Francisco, and 10 minutes from Oakland. Scum dosent steal from scum. So they come to the suburbs and steal from people who actually have somethiing of worth. One nite one of these theives will break into my place , pull a gun on me if I try to stop them from robbing me. I won't allow that to happen. That's the only reason I got these. I look at the murder rates for the year, 87 people so far have been shot in Oakland, 47 in San Francisco. In fact two women were walking down International Boulavard in Oakland yesterday afternoon and somebody sprayed the bus stop they were walking past with bullets. Both were wasted on the spot. Two womens families were altered forever, somebodys daughter is gone. This happens every day in Oakland and San Francisco. Do the politicans really think restrictions or bans will stop this ? They are badly mistaken. It only cripples us law abiding citizens from defending ourrselves. The criminals will still get guns. Weather they steal them or if the wepons get bootlegged in from Mexico.
