There are plenty of "gun free" zones you can live in. Just don't expect the police to come and defend you if you or your family are attacked.

Lol police you still talk to police? They can't do a thing till it's to late anyway. I will take my chances in a gun free society I like that.

You could try Great Britain. The homicide rates haven't fallen, and being stabbed isn't much fun, but at least there are fewer guns. I'll take my chances in a society where I have the right to defend myself.

Defend what? Hard to defend when your dead. I have to say walking around armed is really a foolish answer to real answers you seek. I say no guns no gun violence. There fixed it for ya. Or you could keep your weapon at a approved armory. Use it their. Keep all you want. Just not on my streets. I think you wrong I know I'm 100. So do the 36k dead this year.

This isn't about open carry necessarily. How did you react when you learned that the vast majority of gun violence is committed by blacks and Hispanics?

Also, enjoy getting stabbed in gun free London with violent crime rates exceeding New York after you get a bucket of vibrantly diverse acid thrown in your face. People who intend harm will use whatever they can to hurt you.

I will take my chances I been doing it for sixty years. Getting up going about my business no gun wanted or needed. But I understand your fear. It's only over when you change your mind. I'm not afraid of anybody except that asshole open carrying a weapon when I am eating dinner with my family. Something has got to give. The Constitution was designed to be amended. The objections are really just picking ground to die on. Not really much of a choice in our eyes. After all we can't ignore the part about well regulated. The law is the ass then.

Sir, I have no fear of guns. Open carry people do not commit crimes statistically. You are projecting your own fears onto me. You are safer when people open carry.

If you understood this topic you would know that well regulated meant well equipped. That means citizenry have weapons equal to official military issue. That is how important The 2nd is.

Why does something have to give? What is the problem besides your fear of open carry and obvious hatred for them since you slander?

Why did you not respond to black and Hispanics committing the vast majority of gun crimes?

Bullshit and total nonsense the guy carrying the gun is always your fear. One less gun makes for a better America, just my feeling you have yet to make me think I'm wrong. Your right can end tomorrow will you still be so afraid? When guns are regulated.

By your fear based belief system it would follow that you should've been shot by an open carry person by now. But that has not and will not happen. Statistically, you are more likely to get shot by a black, Hispanic or a cop than open carry. That's very irrational of you.

Well regulated means well equipped.

When you study history, what part of giving a centralized power monopoly on violence seem like a good idea? Why do bad things happen when the proletariat have their weapons taken and why would an unpopular centralized power want to disarm citizens?

====>And more importantly why do you insist on not answering what your thoughts are in knowing that blacks and Hispanics commit the vast majority of gun violence?
