OMG OMG WTF is happening ???? 27 DEAD !!

Certainly not a time, or place, to glorify; "gun ownership" in the United States of America.
Its all a total mystery to most of us.

The massacre of the innocents.

Oh, how i agree.

As you posted a nondirectional post after mine I can't be sure you meant my comment or generalizing. Just to clear up what I meant.. since firearms control is the topic of the day in every newspaper, radio talk show and has even been mentioned here. I neither own a firearm nor take sides in the debate. I am simply saying that peeling 2 or 3 million firearms out of American hands is physically impossible and just banning them would take over 100 years to see any results. I am also sure 'glorifying' food in this thread has another time and place..

My Stance on Gun Ownership is like this :

I don't own any Assault Weapons, don't feel I need to.

I do however own a Registered Taurus 608 Magnum .357 Revolver 8 Shot !

A .12 Gauge Shot Gun
as well as a Rifle.

and 1 .177 High Powered Spring loaded Pellet Gun/ Rutger.

In the event that I'm a Victim of a "Home Invasion" / Robbery, where my front door is Kicked in, or some other means of illegally entry by Criminals, out to Rob me, & Bring Harm to me ,,,,

at least I have a means to DEFEND myself from the Intruders who Inveaded my Home !!

I Highly Doubt under any Circumstances, and in my 49 yrs. I've never seen or heard of it happening, that I'd be able to Defend myself to any Decent Degree - by offering the Criminals , "WINE & CHEESE" , or "COOKIES & MILK" - see where that get ya in a Situtation like that when it comes down !!!

Calling 911 attempting to get the POLICE to your house in time in most cases is next to impossible or the response time is way off, by then it may be too late, and I'm NOT willing to take the chance, especially with my Life !!

I do NOT Idiolize or Glorify my Guns, just doesn't interest me in the slightest , my Guns are like all my TOOLS sitting in my Big Ol' Roll Around Craftsman tool boxes and my Cornwell Roll around tool box , their only good and of use to me when and IF I need to use them, other wize I consider them, kinda Dust Collectors actually !

But, I believe and always have in Fighting Fire, with Fire, showing up at a "Gun Fight" with a "Pocket Knife", I just ain't that Naive & Stupid or Gullible !!  :-? :-?

The last thing I'm gonna do, if Criminals pull a Home Invasion on me, is whip out the 'WINE & CHEESE" or offer them "COOKIES & MILK", and hope everything is going to be just "Hunky-Dory" , "Fine & Dandy" - and as The Inspector said :

If used properly - "it'll remove the Finger Prints" !!  :-?   

a DisArmed Society is a Vulernable Society !

Sincerely, Inspector Harry Callahan      :-?

We should stop this topic right here right now.

I read HANNIBAL and there is much sense in that post.

To be honest, i do have a gun to meet the explosive of home rubberies we now see here.

I also can follow wahubna. This is a very hot subject right now.

Edit. But i'm sure if i use my gun, even to defend me and mine, i would get a sentence in this country....

My two cents worth:

If a madman wants to kill innocent people he will find a way.

Killers don't need guns to kill people.

Timothy McVeigh used fertilizer and diesel fuel....you don't see them outlawed

The 911 terrorist used box cutters and planes. These are still in use as well.

The Nazi's used cyanide gas.

Taking guns from innocent people will not protect innocent people.

The problem is not guns; it's the society that has created a path for evil to grow unimpeded

I own a rifle, and I have a strict plan of use for it:
