tldr: You'll pay for these worthless degrees through taxes

Gun Control Tenets

  • Expand Background Checks to include non-criminal criteria
  • Don't let people buy a bunch of guns
  • "Assault Weapons are weapons of mass destruction"
  • Ban them, or put a registry in place

What is stunning to me is how you can't seem to get past a well regulated militia seems to me that would include every gun owner to keep their weapons in an Amory. Individual responsibility and all.

If someone kicks in your door a gun in an armory isn't going to help you. Responsibility is teaching everyone in the family firearm safety.


The reality in most of the country is that E&M services are a long way away due to sparse population density (20m to 1+hr response time).

When a 6'8" felon armed with a baseball bat kicks in a front door, your wife or daughter are not going to be able to physically overpower that man.

Guns are merely a force equalizer. They let a frail out of shape retiree protect themselves from a young fit person. Without them, might makes right, and the biggest guy in the room makes the rules. If he intends to rape and murder everyone, he will.

This concept includes non-human threats regularly seen in flyover country - like hungry bears.


So, here is my perception of the issue:

  • Black and Mexican city gangs shoot each other a bunch

  • Sometimes mentally ill people and/or terrorists attack innocent people

  • I don't care, I'm not giving up the ability to provide for my own security, and if I have to fight to maintain that I am willing to take any necessary measures.
