Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: Can We Just All Accept Reality? Guns Are Not Going Away. [View all]busterbrown
(8,515 posts)33. Why is there so much push back to stricter gun control on this site?
As you mention facts dont lie. As a matter of fact they are overwhelming in support of the
need for stricter gun laws. Im not against hunting for sport, but Christ there are so many
people out there arming themselves for a pending race riot. These fucking people are crazy
and need to be watched like hawks. Most of them add alcohol into the equation which makes
this situation even more dangerous! How many more times do we have to read about idiots
getting loaded then going looking for trouble.... All the Time!
Im relatively new to this site and the computer so I am continuously searching for new sources
of info and facts to make evident that new and stricter gun laws are desperately needed in this
country.
Keep up the great work!

My great grandfather has a .30-30 hanging on the wall, and has for as long as I've been alive.

Not "conveniently", just "obviously". Not every murderer uses a gun. n/t

I don't think any pro-gun person on this site is against stricter gun control
