There are gun regulations up the kazoo .Violent crime involving firearms was at its peak when gun laws were also at their peak .It has come down dramatically as gun ownership has skyrocketed. There are about 4 times as many guns in circulation today as in the early ‘90s, ;about 1/3 of all U.S. households, yet murder, assault, and unintentional injury involving firearms are all about half or less than they were then.Quote:
So where is the regulation? The right wants NONE, and prayers and condolences fall far short.
Take a look at the areas where gun laws are considered the toughest in the U.S. i.e. Chicago, New York, Los Angeles… these cities have shown that more laws have little to no effect on criminal activity except to increase violence against the people in the poorest areas.
Thus, you are limited by your fire power. You will never have enough.Quote:

The NV beat us with primarily the Kalashnikov. It has been used in revolutions since it's invention. Mozambique depicts it on their national flag because it was the weapon of choice against Portugal in it's war of independence from Portugal.Quote:

One of the first things dictators do is disarm the common people. Once that's done, they have you. An armed people is a free people if they choose to be.
I am for law enforcement something you seem to oppose .Quote:

Good cops YES...Bad cops HELL NO!.Quote:
