I would never spend more than a few sentences on any subject on "the Wall". It's not that I'm against it or have any feeling of superiority towards anybody that would, I just don't have the time to do so. It's because of my time constraints that my posts are always straight to the point and short. Therefore, you will never see me have a dissertation on any subject.
My feelings towards guns are quite simple, if no one had a gun, no one would get shot.
At the same time, I know that the streets will never be without guns and some people need them for protection purposes. My main gripe is with the laws, or the lack there of, pertaining to ammo sales. Why not have a background check on ammunition sales? Hell, make 'em take a psychological examination just to be able to buy a gun in the first place.
It makes sense to me, people that need ammo for hunting or protection purposes only don't really buy their ammo on a spur of the moment thing. These people have time to plan and prepare, in advance, of these wants and needs. Why not make them wait three days to buy ammo?
Criminals, on the other hand, do get their ammo on short notice. They buy bullets under several different circumstances such as hate, anger, frustration, jealousy, rage, desperation and so on and so forth. None of which is good. at the bare minimum, a ammo purchase law would reduce the rate of crimes of passion.
I don't need to do research on the matter, just need to have a little common sense.
BTW. Why do people feel like they gotta be like 2Pac anyways? How "gangsta, is your life really? People are definitely far too paranoid for no good reason.
