You really should research the 1,000s of instances where people with firearms protected their families and or people in public places from armed criminals. I say research because your liberal controlled news won't report on it. That would go against their agenda to disarm Americans. Just the other day a 16 year old male killed his entire family with a knife. A KNIFE! By your liberal way of thinking we should ban all knives, just lock them away. Damn we can't lock them up. My guns are locked away and that's not good enough for you so I guess we just melt down all the knives. Someone recently murdered another person with a screwdriver. Do we stop having tools at our disposal? I could go on and on but it's a waste of time because you liberals don't care about the facts. You just want to take away guns. The biggest problem with taking firearms from the public is that even if all of the law abiding citizens turned over our weapons the criminals would still keep theirs. Look at the crime stats from Chicago alone. Those gun laws are doing a whole lot of good there aren't they? Look at Sweden. Everyone goes into service at the age of 20 and learns to respect firearms as part of their training. How many times have you heard of mass shootings there? None of this will make sense to you though because you are brain washed. You will undoubtedly respond back with another ignorant post about how my angry kid is going to shoot me without even thinking about anything I've said here so I don't even know why I'm wasting my time. I will say this though. It's gonna be difficult for my children to get their hands on my firearms when they are locked away in a vault style $5,000.00 safe. Maybe they can figure out the combination and then kill me. Or use a power tool. We have lots of murderous power tools. Come to think of it I should throw away my pick ax and shovels too. So many things in my home they can kill me with.
