Firearm deaths are the second leading non-natural forms of death in the US for children.

Cause everybody's a responsible gun owner.

I have a 3x6 gun safe all firearms that I am not carrying are locked in it.

I didn't say anything of the sort.

I'm from a military family guns are not toys and deserve the respect for what they are which is a tool and a weapon.


I in no way advocate harming law enforcement however if you show up trying to violate a right that six generations of my family have fought and bled for, you better come prepared.

Besides I'm fairly certain it would never come to that seeing as the supreme court would overule it.

The suspension of disbelief that somthing will not happen makes the probabilty of it that much greater.

There are far more than instances of such in history.

Better to be prepared and hope such a day never comes.

if it will never come to that, then what's up with all this fuging armchair patriot poo every time gun legislation gets brought up?

anyone who says this has either not studied history at all or has some serious delusions about modern day politics.

but the govt makes the law yo.

your govt repealed glass stegall. your govt refused to rein in freddie and fannie long before the meltdown. your govt passed the debt relief act the year BEFORE the meltdown.

your govt has the best ability at pushing up inflation which causes goods to go up which creates a LARGER gap between rich and poor.

your govt.

Zero interest in addressing the fuged up people committing crimes. 100% interest in making new laws and regs to hurt normal citizens.

That is where you are mistaken. It isn't "my government", it is "our government". You may not like "our government", but if you feel so strongly about it and enough people share your views, you can replace those that represent you or you can run for office. On the other hand, it isn't "my Exxon" or "my Chase" unless I own their stock. Corporate leadership answers to their stockholders. What is in the best interests of "all" Americans or the USA comes in a distant second at best to someone running a corporation. The reckless behavior on Wall Street, driven by greed to boost "their" personal bottom line, ultimately resulting in "our" global financial collapse, is a fantastic example of what I'm referring to.

[Delhommey]

There is a lot to improve with our government, a lot to just hate about it.

That being said, you show me an example of anyone else in history governing 310 million people spread across 6 separate time zones with better results.

America is fuging big.
