lol, i knbow it was in texas before i made the comment, but still, lol, looks a bit scary?!

[AND189]

aaahhh yeh mate sure lol yes i agree scary but expected

[47_MasoN_47]

Why are people with weapons scary? Shoot, I have a Glock G19 w/ spare mag, and Kel Tec P3AT on me 95% of the time. I OC the Glock all the time and don't ever get any flack for it.

I'm so glad I live in Canada where we don't feel the need to carry guns.

[47_MasoN_47]

There has never been a crime committed in Canada? That's news to me.

I don't trust people, and anywhere that there are people, I'm going to have a weapon. I had someone try to carjack me 2 weeks after I bought my Yaris, and making the perp stare down the barrel of a .45 saved my Yaris from getting jacked and having to go through all that mess with law enforcement.

Besides, target shooting is a lot of fun anyway. My fiance and I always have a lot of fun at the range shooting targets (or computers occasionally :D).

Only criminals are allowed to have guns in Canada!

No but the violent crime rate is a lot lower. And I'm willing to bet you know that, so your sarcastic comment pretty much ends the conversation, doesn't it?

Anyways... Eleanor Edition, yeah....

[47_MasoN_47]

Regardless of the violent crime rate, there is still violent crime. Until we reach a point where there is no crime (which would basically equate to there being no people remaining on the planet) there will be a need to defend oneself against malicious individuals.

If you choose to carry a weapon of any sort to defend yourself, or if you choose not to, that's none of my business, but personally I'm not going to become a victim of some jerkoff criminal. I feel somewhat insulted by being referred to as "scary" for simply defending myself and my fiance from harm. The justice system in this country is so broken that crime will continue to increase simply because our government doesn't care.

Anyway, my apologies to the OP for hijacking your thread.

i agree with u on some issues, but disagree on others.
if u kill someone here (even though it was on ure property or self defence) u still go to jail, u are still a criminal (in this country)

i'm sorry but if someone tries to hijack ure car and u shoot them cuz they are a criminal, think and shoot ureself.....u've done the same and made ureself a criminal. an eye for an eye and eveyone is blind.

and gun are not scary, the picture caught me off guard (sketchy blacked out benz and guy outside it with a gun) lol

[Stove]

Short answer, No.

[SailDesign]

Guns aren't scary - people who feel the need to carry them (outside of law enforcement) are the ones who scare me.
It's nothing personal, but that's how I feel. I have a target rifle, a squirrel rifle, and a 20ga shotgun upstairs in the locker - but I don't feel the need to carry them around town. If I did, I would simply move somewhere that didn't scare me so much.

It's the United States, we have a Constitutional Amendment that protects our right to bear arms…

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

While the American Bar Associations states “there is more disagreement and less understanding about this right than of any other current issue regarding the Constitution,” to most it is pretty straightforward… “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Period.

Some states try to impede on that right, but most don’t; and the trend in the US has been towards reducing restrictions on gun ownership. Per Gallup reporting, “Americans as a whole may just be more accepting of gun rights now than in the past. Compared with views in 2000, each major demographic or attitudinal subgroup has shown a shift toward a more pro-gun stance on the question about whether gun laws should be more strict or less strict.”

It is ridiculous to be scared of a law-abiding citizen in possession of a firearm. This country was founded and has been and contiues to be defended by those very same individuals, both home and abroad.

Oddly enough though, Texas is not one of the least-restrictive states concerning gun laws. There are many regulations concerning where firearms may be carried, and one of the few states that has no provisions for open carry in public…



Still, it is a very pro-gun state and that's why I love it here so much!

Cheers! M2

Guns don't kill people... nuh uh. I kill pe-ople, with guns POW!!!

Lolz I love that song

[darthbauer]

Guns are no more dangerous than any other tool. If your a LEO then it's just a tool of your trade.


But, if you should feel the need to carry ANY weapon (handgun, knife, etc...) and your only intent to use it is to defend yourself then you should be able to.

I live in Orange County, CA and here it is damn near impossible to get a concealed weapons permit and open carry of a loaded weapon is illegal. If you ask me, that is infringing on my 2nd Amendment rights.

And don't get me started on other CA gun laws.
