In reply to the discussion: FUCK THE NRA. [View all]The 2nd amendment is not a economic measure, but is does contribute to jobs and tax base.
You have not answered any of my questions, what do you say to the woman living alone who has an ex stalking her? What do you say to the gay person who have been beat to a pulp? What do you say to victims of home invasions and or rape? None of you has the right to protect yourself anymore because 1% of gun owners are criminal?
My mother lives alone now that my father has passed. Her neighbor grows weed in his backyard...lots of it. Her front door is right in line with the fence the neighborhood thieves use to rip off the neighbor's garden. At least three times my father armed himself when the thieves were in his yard. Never had to use it, but he had it. Oh ya, the cops showed up twenty minutes later and took a report. You have no right to infringe on my mother's right to self protection.
I guess in your world without guns the crimes against others would stop?
