Collectively as gun owners we need to use our own brains instead of letting Wayne Lappiere, whom I personally think is an extremely overcompensated wing nut, do our thinking for us. As pro gun legislation rules the day violent crime increases proportionally. Although guns create jobs in emergency medicine, funeral industries, prisons, etc., I think on balance they are not really a plus. IMHO

First of all owning a gun is FREEDOM of choice. You have the right not to own one.
Secondly, you can buy everything you need to make a gun in your local box store-Sears, Target, Home Depo.
For your CHOICE that You have made. Perhaps, you can reason with someone in your home looking to hurt your family.
New York where we are from has had the tightest gun controls for the longest time in this nation. THEY ALSO HAVE AMONG THE HIGHEST RATES OF SHOOTINGS.
