Having a gun and being prepared for it's responsible employment may make a critical difference in a tight situation. Having it and being unprepared is a recipe for tragedy, as has repeatedly played out. Now that firearms are a protected commodity industry with lobbyist support it's only going to get worse with vaster easier pickings being diverted into the criminal supply stream from a seemingly endless supply of excess-to-needs firepower. Welcome to a land with some of the best-armed criminals and disenfranchised whack-jobs in the world, and of course thank the NRA for it with your support.

Any semi auto is evil?

As far as guns making one less safe, that comes up a lot and cracks me up.

I am so sick of this GARBAGE.

It is totally mindbogglingly that grown men can be led so easy. Of course it is part of the human condition and we are all afflicted one way or another.

Sadness, anger, despondent. That is how I am left after reading trash like this.

I guess I need to stay away.

peace

I guess that's how these homeowners would have felt if they'd let these perps break into their homes, steal their possessions, attack them, or worse. Good thing they were able to defend theselves and their homes with their firearms.

If it was as as easy to get gold as it is for anyone to get a gun we'd all be millionaires.
