My statement was meant to be taken as sarcasim. There is no way gun control laws prevent criminals from commiting crimes with firearms. Gun control actually encourages it by taking firearms out of the hands of law abiding citizens. This has been proven over and over and over throughout history.

In my opinion, the Right to Bear Arms is an individual right, any State that does not have a "shall issue" policy on CCW is violating its citizens' consittuional rights, and people who believe stict gun control laws are necessary are either ignorant or delusional.

I do have my CCW but in some ways it feels weird as the state could some day just come to my house and say " we want your whole collection and these are the serial numbers". Plus not all LEO's have enough knowlege of CCW laws here thay just confiscate and then you have to sue the county to get it back.

"Ten Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies opened fire early Monday on an SUV they were chasing, discharging 120 rounds in a frenzied crossfire that injured a deputy and the unarmed suspect while sending bullets into nearby homes."


A clip of that was shown on the news here. 2 groups of cops standing directly across from each other about 30 ft apart firing rounds at an SUV right in the middle!! :eek:

Empirical evidence that cops really aren't that smart.


Bullets, from just about everything larger than .22lr will easily penetrate an automobile's sheet steel or aluminum. Just about any rifle round will go straight through the whole car like a hot knife through butter, save for when it may strike a frame member or some sort of reinforcing structure.

Basically, if someone is shooting at you, a car is not cover, it's barely concealment.

Has Harpo's account been hacked by SPAMmers that are bumping decades old threads?

He never/almost never posts text (never speaks). He only posts images. So, he's like Harpo Marx over there blowing his horn, but never saying anything.

THANK YOU! I was wondering if I was the only one not getting triggered and replying without an ounce of contextual understanding.
