multiple locks; multiple safes, amo in one, gun in the other

i would support legislation to require home inspection and certification of "necessary standards of gun safety" like this. i don't see that it should be legal to leave guns lying around

people are crazy

ENOUGH

i dont appreciate having to take all the time i had to use to delete all that bullshit you boys were spattering...i have better things to do...

some of you got infractions, and you know who you are..if this continues, i will ban whoever starts it....

i will leave this thread open because i know a lot of you want it to be, but one more argument, i am closing it...

grow up....

he started it...

hahahaah, no, i AM joking, we made up, it's all good :)

Oh shit... I forgot my cousin goes there, he's one of the injured... Got shot in the upper back, missed his spinal cord, though. He'll be okay, I hope...

I'm sorry to hear that banana, but at least he didn't get killed. That's always a relief to know that he'll be ok.

I always liked Chris Rocks idea of making bullets â?¬5,000 dollars each that way you can still have your guns but its gonna cost you if you wanna kill somebody.

BTW I wouldn't know where to go to find a gun over here. None of my dealers or even their dealers dealers would carry or sell firearms, I would have more chance of finding a flying pig!

Buzz made a good point, your not going to carry a gun down the street with you for fear of being shot unless you live in a messed up area..There are plenty of other precautions you can take...l

Most people im sure only keep guns in the US for home security, so why buy a gun when you could get a decent security system..

sorry to those who pointed out this thread isn't about gun control/us problems... but i can't let this go unanswered....

security systems are for burglars.... if someone's coming to your house to murder you, they're not gonna care if an alarm goes off... they got more then enough time to kick in the door, run in, shoot you (and you're probably gonna make it easier on them by runnning straight to the door) and get out...

security systems work on fear... they don't actually keep your home safe.... they detour burglars who could move on to an easier target...

and what about places of buisness, or being caught on the street? i dunno about you, but if someone's about to kill you, i'd rather die trying to get the first shot off, then just stand there like an idiot and be shot... it's a last resort oppurtunity... if someone's just trying to rob you, and doesn't seem like they're gonna shoot you, then it's best to not pull out a gun... but if you can tell they're intent is to rob and shoot (and you can...) then you might as well try to save yourself...

christ im mad at whoever did this, theyre mad about things in their life and so full of themselves they think everyones lives are rightfully theirs to take
