I am anti-ignorance. I don't care about political parties, that isn't how you should vote. Parties mean nothing, views do. Being anti-religion is just as bad as a crazy religious person being against people who aren't religious.
And as for being anti-gun, that doesn't make sense. The only people who follow laws are law abiding citizens, not criminals. You think a criminal who is going to kill people cares that there is a law against being able to have guns? Where do you think a person with a gun and the intent to kill is going to go: A school where there is no one else with a gun or a shooting range.
Anyhow, anything can be used as a weapon. If you are going to respond, I want a response with valid reasons why there should be anti-gun laws.
If the only way to get access to a gun was through the black market(Smuggled in, not legally imported) no one would be able to have a gun through the legal circles. If no one had a gun, there would be no gun related crimes. As for there being other weapons out there, yes, people can own knives, crossbows, bows, etc but none of these weapons have the range or speed of a gun. No one can fire a crossbow @ 800 rounds per minute. If someone is attacking you with a knife and you can run faster, there is nothing they can do. If you are getting shot at with a gun, you're screwed. There is absolutely nothing you can do.
Lets say that some crazy guys starts shooting in a dark movie theater at random people. That in the first place is a horrible thing. Now lets add a second gun to the mix of a completely law abiding citizen. This persons first instinct will to pull out his gun and start shooting in the direction of the original gun shots. This causes more mass confusion and possibly more injuries/deaths as there are more bullets flying through the air.
I can write more if you want but I would like to play some DayZ.
