Guns just don't belong in the hands of civilians. I mean, what's the point? Self defense? Yeah, right. All a gun does is make shit worse.

question for you. Hypothetical. Say someone breaks into your residence or attacks you on the street and comes at you with a knife. Would you rather have a gun or a knife to defend your life?

More Gun control is just what it is, more government control. It gives government more control over how you live your life and choose to protect yourself. If you like more government control in your life thats fine, but I like having the freedom to protect myself and my family with a gun.

Question for you. Say someone breaks into your house while you and your family are sleeping. Would you rather them have a gun or a knife?

Not directed at me but definitely a loud gun. With a knife he can kill everybody silently and quickly.

Fair enough.
