What's your opinion of gun control?

[Bitcoinsummoner]

We must have to control gun for self protection and also to safe our people. If we cant control guns and cant control of using gun then we will be destructed. To prevent from destruction and also to safe people there is no alternative option except control gun.

What nonsense! We need guns to defend against immigants, Bolshevism and the corrupt government. Without guns, white American would already be raped and replaced. I don't trust national armies to defend us. National armies can also be used to subdue the people. The people need guns to protect themselves against the State.

[Cryptotina]

We're forgetting somethings. 1. The fact that gun control legislation would likely create a black market. 2. Fewer guns doesn’t change the condition of the heart. Meaning that won't stop people from killing each other) They will always find something else to use for their evil deeds.

Very much needed and necessary. I don't think we need to be cranking out the mass production of weapons either though

[BADecker]

^^^ Now that we are in the mode of making new inventions, we should crank out many more children, because some of them will grow up to be in the mode of making more new weapons.

Yes, new weapons will be invented that is not the problem but we have to control them if there is a misuse of this powerful weapons then we will be destructed.

[BADecker]

^^^ We? Who is the "we?" Does this mean that we have to control weapons according to the way you think? Does it mean that we all have to think alike?

Look around the world at all the terrorism. The major countries are doing a whole lot more terrorism in their attempts at controlling weapons. So, by their example, how do you know that it isn't people running the major countries who are the terrorists at heart, and have simply made it into that position so they can do their terrorism easier - using smart bombs, and cruise missiles and drones to kill children in churches im Pakistan.

Grab yourself up some weapons before you are terrorized right into death.

A 250-pound bully can easily mug, rape, and kill a little, 90-pound woman. But if the woman has a gun, she has a chance.

Gun control is the only way we can make this world peaceful. if we succeed to eliminate gun culture, we may save thousands of innocent people every year. Many people lost their lives just because of this gun culture which was started about 50 to 60 years ago and today become a huge problem for the developing as well as developed countries. We should eliminate this culture to make this world a better place to live in.

[BADecker]

Gun control is fun control.

Ask any terrorist who shoots up a school. And then ask the vigilantes who string him up.

[Bitcoinsummoner]

The world can only be safe and peaceful if the people can control gun. Without controlling gun I think there is no way to make the world safe and peaceful for the mankind.

[BADecker]

^^^ Exactly! Arm the general populace with loads of guns and ammo, and give them the training to control their guns properly. Put fear into the hearts of everyone who wants to enslave them.

A 250-pound bully can easily mug, rape, and murder a 90-pound, teenage girl. But if Girly has a gun, she has a chance.

[Bitcoinsummoner]

If any country cant control gun then it will be harmful and too much dangerous which may increase terrorism like recent event on sri lanka and new zealand. If they could control gun then they could prevent that activities.

[bonker]

With the modern technology of weapons guns are nothing infront of nuclear bombs.

But I saw many people handling guns without prior experience and hurting themselves which seems funny but tells something to the community as well.

[Cryptotina]

Seriously guys, guns don’t kill people, people do. If they dont use a gun, they will eventually use something else — like a hammer, knife, or bomb (home made bomb for example) And don't forget the facts that cars kill people too, should we ban/control it also?

[BADecker]

^^^ But that's the simple way of looking at it.

Watch some American Old West movie gun fights. Two guys would face off in the street, maybe 50 to 100 feet apart. At some unseen signal, they would draw their guns and fire at each other. Sometimes both would die. sometimes neither.

Why is this important? Because if they were dueling with scimitars, the bigger guy with more muscle and skill would be the winner. In the gun fight, the winner would be the faster one who had better aim. Wuth guns, size doesn't matter.

Look into Old West history. There were many women, some of them very petite, who were great gunfighters. But there were very few women pirates who made it to the top. Why? Because the gun is the equalizer. Swordsmanship might be a bit of an equalizer, you can easily find many swordsmen who have enough muscle to muscle their way through with smaller skill.

The gun gives power to anyone who practices... ANYONE. Arm the populace. They will protect each other against the criminal element in their midst.

And this point of view can never be attain by any of us. Nobody can never control the use of gun. It's like this, if you obliterate all rapist in this world and whenever there could be people that are curious in raping, there would be still rapist. It's like with the use of gun, if you ban guns, there would be more curious people using it.

Guns are made for one purpose, and that purpose is to kill.
I believe that guns are not weapons, they are tools. How they are used is up to the person holding it.
Guns are especially dangerous in the hands of people who don't know how to use them (i.e., kids and teenagers) as well as those who are mentally ill and/or have a temper problem.
Gun control will not stop violence because a violent person doesn’t need a gun to be violent.
After the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, support for gun control increased dramatically.

Generally in America, the support for gun control has outweighed the support for gun rights.
Are gun control laws constitutional?
What would be your ideal set of laws regarding firearms?

Guns are made for killing indeed.
But if you live in some places that terrorism is rampant it is essential to have a gun in your possession. I would be in favor of banning guns and punish anyone who hold a gun if I was aware the criminals do not have any access in the gun market.

[RainyRiver1805]

I'm against gun control, because Im living in a country where there is such law and I see how many lives could have been saved if people were allowed to carry and use weapon for protection. Instead young girls are going to jail for 5-6 years for trying to protect themselves from rapists.

[BADecker]

^^^ The girls need to get guns, and get together and reform the government.

[Bitcoinsummoner]

Everything can be better but access is very bad so we have to control gun before becoming it access which may destroy the world and we cant save the world on its over control.
