No schit man, that’s the truth. I have a family and I’m not going to sit by and let anybody take away my right to protect them....:especially not some 17 year old kids who know absolutely nothing about the real world.
Knows nothing about the real world.. but sat hiding in their school whilst their friends were being murdered and fearing for their lives ..
Whilst you sat and watched it on the news shaking your head thinking "someone should do something about these crazy people, not the guns though they're harmless".
Funny how you wont sit by when it's your family.. but you'll sit by and pass judgement when it doesn't directly involve you. *****
People are so easily fooled. Most couldn't even tell you what defines an "assault rifle" but the name is scary so they want to ban it. And, coincidentally, legislation tends to cross over to cover many types of weapons. Meanwhile, the violence on the streets is primarily being done with pistols.
What do people do with "assault rifles"? Some defend their homes, others hunt food, some find recreation in shooting targets, not unlike archery. Crimes committed with them are not in such excess that the rights of citizens should be removed. Don't let misunderstanding and fear of things you don't understand make a fool of you.
Because if they’re not mentally capable and responsible enough to handle a firearm than I don’t see how their opinion matters. You wouldn’t ask a 14 year old their opinion on traffic laws would you? And a lot more people dying from traffic accidents then guns.
I actually don’t own any guns. I’m also not a ****** but if some kid said we should ban them I’d still be saying they’re ****** and should shut up.
I don't know - there are some traffic laws that are so fundamental to public safety that even a 14 year-old might have something of value to say about them.
But I think I get your broader point about the potential futility of simply raising the age requirement from 18 to 21.
