Gun control

[freedomfromforum]

Because we live in a fucked up world where
crazy bastards will kill with whatever they can
get their hands on - and I need defense from that.

So why make it easy for them to get their hands on guns?

I seems every 6 months or so we hear reports of some nutter going crazy with a gun in a school and killing kids. One nutter with an automatic weapon can kill dozens of kids, if he can only get his hands on a knife that just won't happen.

Sorry... but I'm not convinced, I once had a neighbor who threatened to kill me (he had a record of violent crime), it never came to more than rude words over the garden fence.... but if he had easy access to a gun I would probably be feeding the worms now.

Do you think police should have guns?

If so, why?

If not, why?
