I'm still trying to figure this one out. I mean, I know that the people that are trying to get them passed mean well, but who do they really effect? I don't get why you would want to create a law that would essentially be ignored by the people who will abuse it, and at the same time limit the power of the people who are righteous and law-abiding?
Who truly benefits?
We have forsaken commonsense and reason to quell irrational fears. We have also made the public whose use of firearms would hopefully be based on the right ways to use this tool powerless to defend themselves against those that would deny them their freedoms. I don't get it...I'm also running is circles aren't I?
All I can say folks, is that laws should be passed based on logic, reason, commonsense. Not passion, nor as a way to ease broken-hearts, or some overwhelming sense that you're owed something because of some tragedy! My heart goes out to you, it does, but to trample on our Constitution because you think that somehow your tragedy is worthy of stripping us of our rights makes YOU the abuser! YOUR RIGHTS END, WHERE MINE BEGINS!
Don't get me wrong, there are some laws passed based on some tragedy that really where blessings. Megan's Law, Danelle's Law, etc...but Gun Laws? Yeah, I don't think so.
You can create laws to protect the young and the handicapped and I will support you in every way, but to create one that does nothing but punish the innocent is WRONG and I will rise against you.
What do you think?
I think you're crazy man!
