If these guns were all legal and owned by people that had a right to use thm, then the penalties for breaking the law need to be tougher.

I have no interest in carrying a gun for protection or keeping one in my bedroom.

You disappoint me. Now you want to take handguns away from law abiding citizens ? How will we protect ourselves from these gangbangers ? Also you forgot to mention hands, if you know what your doing they are a lethal weapon.

Practice on the range is good it familiarizes you with the weapon. However until you are in a confrontational situation you really hav no idea how you will react. When someone asks me if they should buy a handgun,i ask are you 100% sure you would use it when the time comes. If they have any doubt i tell them not to buy.

Shooting at a gun range is one thing. Calmly aiming & squeezing the trigger at the two thugs as they get ready to rape your wife & daughter is something else entirely. You think you''re going to be "Dirty Harry"?

When will young black men get tired of shooting black people?

It would be even better if their dads would take notice. Oops, they probably don''t know who their dads are

Harlem? Hmm... Go figure.

It''s the fault of the mayor & the police! Got to be a way to blame this on white people.

I work in the city but live in the suburbs. Nice to get back home at night. Of course nowhere is 100% safe. Gangs are everywhere.

How many guns do we have in the USA? As many as there are people? 300 million? Somewhere around there.
