Gun Control; What do you think

The only thing that gun control does is take the ability of law abiding citizens to defend themselves and making things easier for the criminals.

How often are violent crimes committed with a registered gun by its legal owner?
I would bet money that 8/10 gun crimes are with illegally acquired, unregistered weapons that the government has no control of. Maybe instead of taking our weapons away they should clear out the Ghetto.

( I have no money to bet, so don't take me up on that one)

- They should do something about those ghettos...
- Well, I don't see the problem of legally owning a gun. It's one of our rights. But what could they do to keep illegal gun's numbers low.
- We could avoid this whole thing if there were fingerprint scanners on the handle that link to a cellular network to confirm it. That way a gun can be limited to a person or group of users and be overridden by police. Something another $700 billion could do. But that's off topic. And I think I'm thinking of a movie.
Edit: We should put this on teachershoes.

Gunny I know you know about the Gun Range the city is making by my house and my nieghbors want to get rid of it because it will cause violence. What they dont know is the point of a Gun Range is to keep guns UNDER CONTROL, they even have law enforcement there, they just make excuses. All in all though I feel that sometimes guns go too far for "defensive purposes" when other things can be use, but hey its not a weapon till you use it like one.
There is no good or evil, just different ppl with different beliefs

What do you plan to do, teach everyone to throw knives like I can? You cannot always take down a psychotic attacker with pepper spray, and if you get close enough to use a contact type tazer, you're already dead. If someone were to attempt to attack my mother, I would kill him with my bare hands. Guns are just the least personal and one of the cleaner methods of killing people. I could do an move where I use the heel of my hand to shove your nose into your brain, or throw a knife, but a gun is much more threatening and safe for the user. You need specialized training to defend yourself hand to hand, but anyone can operate a firearm.

Ok, anyone with more than 3 IQ points can at least pull a trigger. As long as the safety is off, the weapon is cocked, and a round is in the chamber. Of course, that doesn't mean that there is a chance of someone getting hit. It just means that a round will come out of the barrel.

I personally don't care for guns At this point in time... Maybe when we develop laser gun tech, with fingerprint scanners((Oh The movie was Judge Dred... HAHA just remembered...)) As long as one isn't pointed at me, IDC...

we should all give up guns and walk the path of the monk...

Dare to be different!

You can take my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Also, watch out for the grenade.

Also, I have the feeling that if I was a cop, I would end up being like Judge Dredd. Very Effective, and a little trigger happy. And on "administrative leave" all of the time.
