One of the design purposes of a gun is to prevent *being* killed.


Another, of course, is to kill.



uh huh. So, who's going to declare a truce and disarm first ... those
who try to kill or those who are trying to prevent being killed?

Those with guns who are trying to prevent being killed far outnumber
those who actually kill. The vast majority of gun owners are law
abiding and would only shoot someone as a last resort measure.

Most gun related events in the home aren't related to crime prevention
or bodily injury prevention but accidents or domestic disputes between
family members.

Prevention is among the least likely uses for guns in a home.


See? Some would argue that it works! :-)

I posed a question to you a week or so ago and don't know if you
responded with an answer or not. Might have missed it.
I asked what *your* position on guns is. Do you favor private ownership
at all of handguns or are you an advocate to outlaw them entirely?


I'm in favor of people being able to defend themselves, their
families, their homes.

I would, however, put stringent controls on the sale, ownership and
transfer of weapons and treat those who misunderstand the law very
harshly.


I told you his was a do as I say, not as I do type.


It seriously is a liberal thing.... Look at the height of hypocrisy,
colleges. Rutgers a so called "bastion of free speech", just had it's
faculty lead a resistance that made Condi Rice turn down an invitation
when recently they paid "Snookie" to speak there... What a bunch of
morons let me add ****ing to that.. What a bunch of ****ing morons...
