it's funny...but when it comes to gun control, it should make people realize that the smaller government you have, the less unconstitutional laws you have, the better things get! go figure.

* Vermont: one of the safest five states in the country. In Vermont, citizens can carry a firearm without getting permission . . . without paying a fee . . . or without going through any kind of government-imposed waiting period. And yet for ten years in a row, Vermont has remained one of the top-five, safest states in the unionâ??having three times received the "Safest State Award."31
* Florida: concealed carry helps slash the murder rate in the state. In the fifteen years following the passage of Florida's concealed carry law in 1987, over 800,000 permits to carry firearms were issued to people in the state.32 FBI reports show that the homicide rate in Florida, which in 1987 was much higher than the national average, fell 52% during that 15-year periodâ??thus putting the Florida rate below the national average.33
* Do firearms carry laws result in chaos? No. Consider the case of Florida. A citizen in the Sunshine State is far more likely to be attacked by an alligator than to be assaulted by a concealed carry holder.


i bet if you didn't even need permits for conceal carry, it would result in even less crime, or at least be the same.

compare that cities that have the strictest gun control laws...at least in the US, the result is obvious.

it's the same with all prohibition. it's not done because the government loves you, it creates a new, profitable market if you control the system.

the drug war is a good example. the feds create the drug war, then get into the drug business and protect their industry. we have only more drugs after the drug war, just like every other war...war on terror, war on illiteracy...they're designed to fail and create the need for a federal takeover.

the same families that own and control the banks and the prisons and the shipping companies and other giant industries profit from every plank of their corrupt system. we lose jobs to prisoners making .20 cents an hour, in jail because of the drug war and three strikes bullshit.

india and mexico and china lose jobs to people in prison.

things need to stop now before this country is broken up completely and we have UN and foreign troops running around 'peacekeeping'...
