Gun Control

Do you liberals really not understand that the majority of gun related homicides are committed by people Using illegal guns?

No laws on gun control can or will change that fact.

100% untrue. Criminals killing each other will always make up the majority of gun deaths, but it's the senseless deaths of everyone else that needs addressing.

A 180 degree change in the approach to non-sporting guns would have a huge effect on society at large and in the criminal world too.

While I agree with you, but krg brings up a good point, what about the illegal guns. This is what I was targeting as first priority and then parenting as the seconnd. This kid got his fathers weapon. This is why I will not have guns in my house, period. One, not needed, two, tragedy can happen and I would be responsible.

For the illegal guns, only offering to buy them back no questions ask is the only safe way, but police wants to put them in prison for having the illegal weapon. The police and the populace have to understand you can't have your cake and icecream at the same time. So they are not going to take that offer. Trying to confiscate will get a lot of police, marshalls or even military dead.

"Freedoms" ...... how is regulating weapons and a background check threatening to your "freedoms"

Any more than registering your dog and getting a background check to procure a dog license ?

To my mind if anything it reinforces them.

As in the frredom to go to the mall

the freedom to send kids to school

Freedom of having policemen that can help kittens out of trees -- rather than have their heads on a constant swivel

I never said regulation and background checks threatened my freedoms. I was referring to making guns illegal to own.
