First off the 2d Amendment is NOT about hunting. Everyone should read and understand the United States Constitution. Nothing in the 2d Amendment mentions or hints at hunting.

Second, yes a 12 gauge is a good home defense firearm, but really here in the Villages. You need to come to our "Cool Gun Club" meeting, Mulberry Grove Rec Center, Jan 4, 7 PM, and find out about home protection, concealed carry and how to be a responsible firearm owner and most importantly, how to keep yourself out of having to use any force, up to and including deadly force by being aware of your surroundings.

Third, define "assualt weapon?" Then we will discuss your statement above.

Fourth, please state the message that "we" are sending by allowing these weapons to be sold.

Thank you, have a Happy New Year.
