[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've lived in cities all across the country. I've never before experienced so much random, reckless, and violent crime. I'm now carrying a concealed firearm. You can have my car, my cell phone, my credit cards, and any other thing you want. But I am getting home to my family at the end of the day. This city seems more worried about the wellbeing of criminals than law-abiding citizens. The most important job of government is protecting the safety of residents. The city doesn't have the stomach for it, so I have to do it myself. I'm a lifelong democrat. I believe in sensible gun control. I'm not a "gun nut." What we have here are not Democratic policies. Democrats don't believe in lawlessness. Parents don't believe in lawlessness. I pray I never have to use it. I can't imagine having to take a life. [/quote] You'll shoot yer eye out, kid.[/quote] I believe the logic goes something like: government exists to protect vulnerable in society. The most vulnerable deserve the most protection. The perty criminals are defined to be the most vulnerable because they lack consist income or marketable skills. Therefore government must protect the criminals. If you are middle class, the government has no time for your problems. Please pay your taxes in a timely fashion though. Or else [/quote] My point was rather that normal people waiving guns around could result in horrible accidents. They're not benign objects and a lotta things could go wrong.[/quote]
