[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And fear of criminal assault is anything but irrational. Just ask the lady who was beaten and strangled on the roof of her building recently. Oh, that’s right, you can’t. [/quote]

The PP’s fear of common sense laws is irrational. [/quote]

Not nearly so irrational as pretending violent criminals aren’t preying on people every day, and it’s just a matter of time until it’s your turn. I would rather face that sort of situation armed.

You are free to choose to face it unarmed. That’s your choice. But you don’t get to choose for me, too. [/quote]

I don't have an issue with people having guns. I have an issue with people not pushing for better safety measures that will reduce gun violence.

As a gun owner I support laws that would actually contribute to reducing gun violence - prosecution of EVERY straw purchase, mandatory minimum sentences for drug dealing, robberies, sexual assaults or carjackings committed with a gun, making drive-by shootings punishable by life in prison or the death penalty if an innocent bystander is killed. That would be a good start.

I do not support most of the cliched “common sense” gun control measures often bandied about here because those laws are mostly aimed at punishing people like me by greatly restricting the types of guns I’d be permitted to own, rather than deterring actual crime. There’s nothing common sense about that, unless your goal is just eliminating gun ownership on an installment basis. [/quote]
