246. Your vision seems a bit limited...
if that is all of your vision that being said there is nothing imcompatable with "your vision," and the right to keep and bear arms.

Guns were certainly around when I was a child growing up in the 80s and 90s, I didnt live with the fear of getting shot, there are plenty of kids out there that be them from households with or without guns go through life without the fear of getting shot.

Sure there might be some people who live in some rough neighborhoods who might have that fear, or there might be some parents who have some fears, but not all fears are rational. Just because there are guns does not mean you are going to get shot.

You can do more to reduce the risk of violence by removing the causes of violence while still maintaining the right of the people to keep and bear arms.

Guns have done nothing for mankind but kill, they serve no other useful purpose. There is no defense for them being here other than mans ambition to kill faster and easier. Live with that realization!

That is your opinion and I believe you are mistaken.

If you support that then you don't live in the same country as I do. You don't care for this country as I do.

Just like George Bush eh? You are either with us or against us right?
