Advocates of gun control, also defenders of the Second Amendment, counter with the common sense argument that, no, the only guns that should be controlled are military-style weapons that have the capability of killing a large number of people in a short amount of time.
Ed.: Um, no. No 'defender of the Second Amendment' argues that rifles that cosmetically appear similar to military weapons should be subject to gun controls. |

A good rifleman with a lever operated or pump operated rifle is more dangerous than the average punk or terrorist with a black rifle.
If these people actually wanted to make this country safer, they would get rid of gun free zones and push to lock up the criminals instead of letting them out on bail or probation.
Obama has released over 1000 criminals that should not be on the street. Those that got pardons will have their gun rights restored.
I don't want to hear another word about making the country safer from a Democrat. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
