I want to say it again for one last time, guns kill. This is for all of you out there who hide behind the archaic 2nd Amendment that is not absolute. This is for all of you who say; well I only kill an animal for food and then leave the torso of a full grown alligator on
This is for all of you who say that if we ban guns, only criminals will have guns. Ban handguns in this country and you will see crime go down. You will see less gang murders. You will see fewer killings caused by domestic disputes. You will see less armed robberies. Get tough on gun laws. Anyone committing a crime with a gun goes to prison for at least 30 years with no negotiation—if it is murder—life or the chair. Some punk kid who kills his teacher “just because,” goes immediately to jail, no appeal. Simple solution.
I have heard all your arguments before and I am not interested. Personally, I am sick to death of the NRA and spending multi-millions to defeat the Brady Bill and sicker yet of the entire supply side of the gun business that have been a party to typical greed over human life and ignore the statistics on death by guns. Tell it to our Supreme Court when they told us that background checks are unconstitutional but the bill was upheld anyway. Tell it to James Brady, shot with a hollow-point "devastator" bullet that exploded the right frontal lobe of his brain during an attempted assassination of President Reagan and who is a parapalegic for the rest of his life. Tell it to all those who own a gun for protection because of our liberal gun policies that are out of control giving the United States the distinction of being in the top 25 countries in the world for murder per capita by guns.
Tell it to the Jacobson family, Franki, Eric and Joshua who were just shot to death at their home in
Lynn , I disagree. ANY ban on guns,any make or model, affects only law abiding citizens.Criminals are called criminals for a reason. The gun laws on the books are not being followed. This is a fault of the Legal/Justice system that we law abiding citizens are forced to suffer under.Especially with this administration that is in power, the idea of law abiding citizens of America being forced to turn over their weapons to the government is a completely chilling thought. I urge you ,Lynn,to find someone who has had to live under a communist regime and get THEIR thoughts on banning guns. Have a discussion with some NRA members.and ,finally,go research what steps Hitler took before and immediately after he seized power in regards to weapon ownership.Research what the nation of Switzerland has to say on the subject. Yes, SWITZERLAND. A perfect way to segue back to how our Legal/Justice system is broken.It isn't the guns that are the problem, it's the LAWYERS !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Katie. As said, I have heard all the arguments...event the Hitler one which is way out.
