    Torog and Epxroot, you both make some very good points. This expands our discussion (and lets agree to allow it to expand) to the issue of letting individual's carry firearms anywhere. I haven't done enough research to have a confidently firm stance, but I'm definately more inclined to say people should be allowed to carry guns on their person.

    From every report I've checked out, states that allow you to carry a firearm have lower incidences of murder's and robberies. I agree that many muggers, robbers, home-invaders, and murderers might think twice when the whole public isn't a group full of victims ripe for the picking. More and more in our schools, in our government, in nearly every aspect of our increasingly government-controlled society people are being taut to be disempowered. We're supposed to be 100% dependant on big brother to protect us; call the police, tell a teacher, alert an authority, rat out your friends. Well in the real world the authorities can't be at every corner ready to protect you, and there comes a time in everybody's life when you have to protect yourself.

    My dad told me stories of when he was in high school (1956-1960) they had REQUIRED gun safety courses, and that there was a shooting range in the school. From there he became an NRA instructor at a local YMCA that also had it's own shooting range. I think one of the biggest problems today is that kids just don't respect firearms. Personally I was raised with them, I had my first bb gun at the age of 10. When I turned 12 I recieved my grandfathers Gamo .22 air rifle. Then at 14 I recieved my first firearm a ruger single six .22. Now I'm 19, and have aquired quite a collection for myself. I have the up most respect for them, and understand their power. Also thanks for the support Torog! I'm glad to say that my university has it's own ROTC program and a shooting range on campus.

    Howdy guitar,

    You must be a Ruger fan..thought I recognized yer avatar..Ruger makes lots of good weapons.

    Hollywood and modern liberalism,have done great harm to the perception of guns in the mind's of Americans,plus far too many parents failed to pass on traditional values to their children-such as common sense when it comes to guns. By the time I was 12,I owned a blt-action 22 and a semi-auto 22 and a 30-30 Winchester 73,got my first buck with the 30-30 at 12..that how things are with us Texan's that come from the country.

    Being armed,makes for a very polite society..lol. :thumbsup:

    Have a good one ! :jointsmile:

    Hand guns should be illegal everywhere. They were made for one reason: to kill other humans. Don't give me that 2nd Ammendment speech bullshit, because the Bill of Rights says Right to Arms.......does that mean every American is entitled to an H-Bomb?

    When I went to highschool in the 70's,we were allowed to bring guns to school,we just had to keep em locked up in the trunk,that's how much trust our school officials had in us to be mature and responsible with firearms.

    We need to bring back firearms safety and competition courses,and colleges need to stop kicking ROTC off of the campus's.

    Have a good one !
    You forget that in the military, they have adult supervision

    Howdy Tall,

    Well daggum,I would'a figured that a feller from Georgia,would have more sense than that-when it comes to handguns..are ya a transplanted yankee city-slicker or something ?

    That's one heck of a stretch-from handguns to H-bombs..lmao,thanx for the laugh !

    The fact is is,is that Americans should be equivocally armed as the police and military,with the exception of machine guns and Navy and Air Force,and tanks.

    Have a good one ...

    PS: it'd sure be nice to have one of what this gal in the pic has .. :thumbsup:

    There are two ways to solve the problem of violence in society. The 'let everyone pack heat' method is the lazy man's method. If someone gets murdered, you just say,
    "Well, he had the means to defend himself. Too bad."

    Instead of that mindset, we should focus on ridding our society of potentially violent people. Or at the very least, ship them off to the military.
