Do You Own a Gun?

[Shawnee123]

I heard on the news the other night a kid (9 years old?) was caught in gang crossfire as he was playing outside, riding his bike. He was killed.

If that 9 year old had his own gun this never would have happened.

Gang members report the gun was not meant for killing; they were going to use it to stir a big pot of beef stew and it just went off.

Yes, let's all tell the gangs to willingly give up all guns, and then we can live under rainbows with the Easter Bunny and Peter Pan. Oh wait, this is reality and there are bad people in the world.

Only an idiot would try to use the force of government to limit which methods people may use to defend themselves and then use those who violate the law as a reason for attacking the rights of those who don't.
