Advocates of gun control, also defenders of the Second Amendment, counter with the common sense argument that, no, the only guns that should be controlled are military-style weapons that have the capability of killing a large number of people in a short amount of time.
Ed.: Um, no. No 'defender of the Second Amendment' argues that rifles that cosmetically appear similar to military weapons should be subject to gun controls. |

A good rifleman with a lever operated or pump operated rifle is more dangerous than the average punk or terrorist with a black rifle.
If these people actually wanted to make this country safer, they would get rid of gun free zones and push to lock up the criminals instead of letting them out on bail or probation.
Obama has released over 1000 criminals that should not be on the street. Those that got pardons will have their gun rights restored.
I don't want to hear another word about making the country safer from a Democrat. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
