It must make gun control advocates feel really good to think they are going after .02% of crime.
Crime rates involving gun owners with carry permits have consistently been about 0.02%
of all carry permit holders since Floridas right-to-carry law started in 1988.
Which has what to do with someone being able to buy a gun in CA?
While sales have gone up the people that know how to properly use a gun have gone down. If I see one more person walking around with the safety off or holding a gun near the trigger guard when handing a weapon to someone I might start joining the anti-gun crowd !
Can't believe when asking someone " did you clear the chamber ? " they responded "how do you do that ?"
There is nothing sensible about gun registration. Please try to explain how a gun being registered will magically stop bullets fired from it from killing some one? Does it put some kind of shield on it?I don't really understand why a lot of liberals still cling to the anti-gun stuff. I'm talking about actually being opposed to citizens owning guns, not the sensible restrictions like registration.
Ahh, you mean liberals? They have no issue with using guns in video games or using guns in movies or TV (shown to protect people), but in real life they expect people to roll over and take it in the ass from criminals.Those are the people that should not have firearms.
Again, I blame the liberal media. They show people in movies and TV all the time walking around with their finger on the trigger, because carrying a gun "looks cool". Watch shows like Top Shot or Sons of Gun and you see people that are correctly trained demonstrating proper gun safety.While sales have gone up the people that know how to properly use a gun have gone down.

Well, the 1% is buying too, and paying the 2-15% to protect them from the other 85%, who can barely afford two guns and a few bullets.
But hey, who's counting..
People are just getting ready for World War Z.

Ah, thought you were making a different point. Yeah it's relatively easy to get a gun in CA, you just have to deal with less selection (due to the bullshit drop test), essentially zero carry rights at this point, and the 10 rd mag limit, among many other pieces of feel-good red tape. But yeah, you can own a gun.
Add me to the list... I ordered a Palmetto State Armory M4-V on Cyber Monday. Hopefully I will have it next week.
Come to California. The only people who have guns here are the gang bangers. If you own guns you're seen as a crazypersonpsychoticmurdererserialkiller.
Pic related, it's the reason that everyone thinks I'm crazy :awe:
Should have got an Armalite SPR mod 1, smokin deals on quality if you knew where to look... I did
What cute little magazine you have there.

You can legally own enough guns to shoot 10 people and kill 3. Should be enough to defend your property.
It is neither "the impending class war/riots" (do you really believe that nonsense?) nor "the economy causing this." It is a function of the fact that many gun enthusiasts believe, despite no evidence to the contrary, that President Obama will take some action to limit gun rights. Despite President Obama doing no such thing at any time, the underlying idea seems to be that as a lame-duck President in a second term he might change his course.
This is strictly an emotional reaction, in that a) President Obama has never demonstrated any inclination he might actually try to limit gun rights; and b) there is no way any gun control measure would make it through our current Congress. That being said, it's a good way for the NRA and the gun industry to get people whipped up, and thus infuse money into the gun industry in an economy which has left many American strapped for disposable income. I find it curious that people act so emotionally, en masse, for no clear reason, but that's human nature.
Yeah, seems low to me also, but it's a poll and it must be totally accurate.
I'm pretty happy to tell any yahoo or clown that calls me on the phone if there's any valuables in my house, where they're located and when we won't be home.

And in the end regardless of any other arguments, the gun was invented with the purpose to kill other human beings.
When was it they figured out guns were pretty handy for shooting 'food'?
I would've thought hunting would be primary reason since we need food several times a day. How often do we have the need of a gun to shoot people?
