Way to prove my point.

well, it is the liberals that always come up with the theories of something bad happening. if they didnt do that, then gun control would not even exist.

There is no way that you can tell a victim that they have an irrational fear, that's even ridiculous to think that way. Are you sure that the majority of military, police officers, or victims of gun crimes have irrational fears of things happening to them?

I don't speak on individuals or how they should respond to a personal trauma.

But I know that someone's paranoid fantasies and race based fears, shouldn't govern public policy even if they experienced something horrific.

No they don't but there is no saying that you can and will win a gun fight with one. In the case of that robbery there were three men with guns and I do not think anyone could win that fight. Can guns be used for self defense, yes but in very limited cases. For instance from the sounds of it you were in a drive by in miami. I live in a pretty crime infested place but the crime is gang bangers shooting at other gang bangers for the most part adding more bullets into that sitution will not help. If you live in an crime infested urban enviroment you fear getting caught in the crossfire much more than being robbed.

I am so sick of you pro gun nuts paranoia of having all your guns removed. Grow some, will ya? There are 300,000,000 guns in this country. There are as many guns in this country as people and many of you are soooooo paranoid about loosing them that you will regurgitate any nonsense just so nobody takes them away. Enough! Most sane people in this country just want to have reasonable limits and regulations but instead of working with us to enact those your knee jerk answer is, "NO LIMITS!", "NO REGULATIONS", "GUNS DON'T KILL!". You can keep your delusion but WE THE PEOPLE are moving on with or without you.

for the unexperienced, for those who have never experienced gang rape or fatal beatings of family members and friends or self, talking about firearm ownership is gibberish.

So, tell us what you propose as a "reasonable limit and regulation." And what will said limits & regulations do to make any or all of us safer?

Since there are not enough votes to do away the second amendment with another amendment, any laws to ban guns or even just assault rifles would be unconstitutional.

So that would put every other amendment in jeopardy. If one amendment isn't sacred then none are sacred. The government will proceed to chip away at them using unconstitutional laws similar to the ones enacted banning assault rifles.

Furthermore, an unarmed society is dependent on the state for protection. Once Americans give up the second amendment in any shape or form they give up their freedom.

"Without you?" How Marxist of you!

"We the people", about 75% of us even after the CT shootings, are opposed to an outright ban. When "we the people" collectively decide to amend the constitution get back with me.

The court has ruled that many other restrictions are unconstitutional. You lose.

I guess if "we the people" decide that we can place limits on abortion you wouldn't have a problem. I guess if "we the people" decide an old-fashioned poll tax is in order you wouldn't have a problem. Sickening.

Either way though, that doesn't change the reality that middle aged fat outshape dudes are not going to stop a tryrannical US government. It also doesn't change the fact that these fat middle aged outshape men are talking about killing cops, ATF, FBI, etc.

Stop the crazy fcking fantasies.
Evidently the Constitution is a foreign document to you.

However i do agree we are fighting a domestic enemy with in.

If you want the context of what you copied you will have to check out who I quoted. I am too lazy to do that for you.

The jist was old FAT guys are out of shape.... I would agree that some are, but not me.

If you think everything is so well enforced, then tell me exactly how did this deranged punk kid get not one gun, but 3 and one was a long gun in a Killing Zone, err ah uh I mean a Gun Free Zone.

Seems to me a squad of SWAT should have stopped him with milk and cookies.

And in general when you don't know fck,all, they you should avoid fck all
