40 Reasons For Gun Control

As all of we who believe in the 2A have found out, most of these in this list are regurgitated here frequently. Although I find the entry's on this list funny I can see in my minds eye the Anti-gunner reading these and spewing spittle on the monitor as they type their rebuttal to the truth.

12. The 2nd Amendment, ratified in 1787, refers to the National Guard, which was created 130 years later, in 1917.

23. Ordinary people in the presence of guns turn into slaughtering butchers but revert to normal when the weapon is removed.

26. Any self-loading small arm can legitimately be considered to be a "weapon of mass destruction" or an "assault weapon."

35. Private citizens don't need a gun for self-protection because the police are there to protect them even though the Supreme Court says the police are not responsible for their protection.

Where does it refer to the National Guard?

23. Ordinary people in the presence of guns turn into slaughtering butchers but revert to normal when the weapon is removed.

Any proof to this outrageous stereotype?

26. Any self-loading small arm can legitimately be considered to be a "weapon of mass destruction" or an "assault weapon."

PREPOSTEROUS!!!

35. Private citizens don't need a gun for self-protection because the police are there to protect them even though the Supreme Court says the police are not responsible for their protection.


The police usually show up AFTER the crime has been committed, in most cases the police merely clean up the mess!

it doesn't it states A WELL REGULATED MILITIA.

Which in gun nut jargon translates to "NO LAWS FER ME GUNS!"
'
But I am not sure if that only refers to long guns or short guns, or other life saving devices... that take lives easily.

The Kentucky Concealed Carry Coalition. I doubt they're for stronger gun control laws.

on the list while on GD tonight they were quoted almost verbatim. The anti's need new material.
Like showing a monkey a tool they start using it without thinking because they see others do it.
All the anti's need to do is think just a little and they will see it's not about guns it's about people.

All you have to say is GUNS
