well look at what happened in nagasaki japan the other day. the mayor was shot and killed. seeing that they have most strict gun laws and very low gun violence it never goes away. you can ban all of the guns legally and it will be easier to obtain illegal guns. gun control isnt the answer. yes i am pro gun here but i have been with the local police department and i think guns are the essential key to preserving the state of things we have now. i was talking with my dad and we got to talking back in the old west stuff like this didnt happen. if you intended to shoot someone you thought twice because most people carried a gun on their hip. as for the background check i think that extending the periods to get one will discourage legal gun owners to go buy from an individual. now take into account that this guy could have purchased the guns from individual and what could be said then?
Common sense people. a gun does not kill, people with guns kill. and its just not guns you can kill with just bout anything. i mean if that guy went on a rampage with a knife and started killing people are you gonna ban knives because they kill people? o and the "privilege" to buy guns is not a privilege its a right as an American citizen. i believe the second amendment, right under the one to free speech.
