(1,096 posts)We all know by this time that you feel a need for a gun for self defense, and the vast majority would agree that if you can pass a back ground check and have no history of violence, that you should have a right to have a gun for self defense. Yet you know there is a huge problem of violent and mentally unstable people having access to guns and even assault weapons in this country and you have not offered one single solution, that makes you part of the problem. You complain and complain for self defense, what about the defense of the people who have been the victims of violent offenders with AR15s and 100 round magazines, .223 high velocity rounds and easy access to these weapons through loopholes in laws such as the personal gun sale which doesn't require a background check?
I'm tired of reading about your need for self defense which is in absolutely no danger, while you ignore all of the people being murdered because of the need for sensible regulations.
Become part of the solution, offer reasonable logical solutions or just please STFup, that's what I would say to someone who keeps muddying the waters of the gun debate.
