GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[F.U.]

Thorough Background checks are a must, no short cuts, deviations of laws, no politics, no exceptions. However, background checks are only the beginning. Types of weapons is paramount. IMHO.


IMHO. Military mass assault type weapons are used in Military "warfare", so as to make one solider be able to kill as many of the enemy as possible. Logical rational.

The second amendment allows "civilians" to own weapons, if they were: six shot handgun, bolt action rifle, shotgun, no problem. The problem comes when "civilians" want and get mass assault weapons.

Many won't like this, but even a 9 mm with a15 up to 30 shot magazine could be considered a mass assault weapon.

Because there never is a time that comes when the killing of as many civilians is required, is there?
When a nut job gets/has a mass assault weapon, the consequence turns into a Batman movie massacre & or Newtown massacre. (Recient) (Unfortunately, there are many nut jobs out there, so don't make assult weapons easily available)

And there [bold underlined portion of your post] is the biggest problem cars. Gun owners know that once we give in there is no telling what will be next. Its the old give them a inch and they will take a mile. So because of that gun enthusiasts resist every law change, gun ban, background check that is proposed.

You have a thousand assault weapons in your home FU, I really don't see how the current gun laws have affected you any. Would it really kill you if obtaining a gun required a thorough process with strict back ground checks? Maybe making it a little more difficult for some nut to purchase four assault weapons on a whim and shoot up a movie theater for example?

When we talk about background checks Sally I have mixed emotions. Yes my first response is to quote the, shall not be infringed, portion of our constitution. However I also feel that background checks, if they actually worked and people were prosecuted when they broke that law is a good thing. Then throw in the fact that I hold a FFL and deal guns and I am required by the feds to do these background checks.
In theory they would sound like a good thing. However since this is a government program it is like most all things the gov does, fucked up.
