The unarmed people of this world have been killed for thousands of years. You're a fool if you'll be lulled into giving up the most potent weapon you've got to protect your family just because no one's been killed in your neck of the woods lately.
You think the 6 million jews killed in WWII wished that there wasn't a ban on gun ownership in germany?
oh, I'm sorry. that was outside of your frame of referance because it was before you were born.
ok, how about Sarajevo Yugoslavia? Do you remember the beautiful winter games in Yugoslavia? Millions of people traveled there. It was a modern, beautiful place in 1984.
Then the country was thrown into war.
how many unarmed civilians do you think died because they thought they were so civilized that they didn't need a gun for protection?
If you think we live in a world where personal protection by the use of firearms is unnecissary, I feel sorry for your children. Your shortsightedness puts them at risk.

looooool
so many things completely wrong w/ this i cant even begin
16,000 ppl are killed in the US each year, 12,000 gun deaths. over 50x higher than the next country on the list. must b because we have a quarter billion guns, WERE NOT ARMED WELL ENOUGH WE NEED MORE TO STOP ALL THIS SENSELESS KILLING!!!!!!
the problem isnt guns, jews and ethnic albanians didnt die because they werent well armed enough. palestinians have high powered assault rifles and check out the comparative death toll in israel.
problem is the US is out of control, partially due to the mentalities of gun nuts. u have a 1 in 700 chance of dying when u get in a car, i dont see people saying we need more cars 2 protect ourselves, or bigger cars full of packing peanuts
gun argument has an always will be stupid, mayb if we had less than 1 gun per citizen in this country
