Interesting that the same eye numbing vitrol rhetoric is being pushed about and quite possibly removing any interest from the OP or any other person who steps in to get "educated" on gun control.
for me possession of a firearm is to allow me to protect myself from random aggressors and tyrannical government.
It is summarized easily during the 1993 congressianal hearing with Suzanne Hupp who lost her parents in the deadliest killing pre-VT at Luby's Cafeteria in TX. The gunman killed 23 people and wounded 20 then turned the gun on himself.
Quote:
The Second Amendment is not about duck hunting.
And I know I'm not going to make very many friend saying this. But it's about all rights. All of our rights to be able to protect ourselves from all of you guys up there. - Suzanne Hupp
