Watching the morning news in Florida certainly highlights the prevalence of guns!

Of course the gun nuts will tell you that if they had not been shot, these victims
would have been hit on the head with a ball bat.

Jack, I’m pretty much done with this forum because it’s so far in left field for the most part with a general base of old people that enjoy games and putting people down… I remember your post on my “I could have stopped this massacre” regarding the last mass shooting in the California salon.

Not getting into details but will tell you most anyone in a first response role (not me) highly recommend people take their personal defense seriously including a former Canadian LE and current firearms instructor.

It’s as simple as this; you either have the ability or you don’t and in my perfect world I prefer regular training but will never give up a right either. Lawful people need the right to defend themselves, their family or anyone anytime anywhere IMO. Our second amendment is a “cold dead hand topic” to anyone serious about it because we’re not stupid enough to believe WE WON’T BE ON OUR OWN. And I’d wager good money you haven’t had the personal experiences I have not to mention the ones of my LE buddies.

Taking all the BS out of the gun topic it boils down to taking reasonability for yourself, you either have it or you don’t.
"Taking all the BS out of the gun topic it boils down to taking reasonability for yourself, you either have it or you don’t."

Most of what you post is paranoid BS. I'm 70 years old and never even came close to needing a gun to protect myself, and I have serious doubts about your stories of needing a gun. I do own a 9mm Beretta, but it's stashed away somewhere in a closet. Do you ever think about anything other than guns?

Let's see, shootings are sensational, sell advertisement, while hunting, gun club events, gun training are not and don't make the news. From that you draw a conclusion?

The conclusion that I draw is this...
The higher availability of guns, the more people are shot!

If you are referring to the U.S., Sea, your opinion is totally meaningless. You apparently feel safer here than you do at home.

I am glad you finally agree, Neal. No point in them spewing their hatred for the U.S.

On the contrary Jim,
I feel perfectly safe no matter where I am.

Oh boy. I wish I had the time to go back and find all those times you have said otherwise. Was it untrue then or untrue now?

Sure thing Jim, why not do that?

I would be interested in seeing where I said that I was concerned for my safety,
anywhere, anytime.
