Maybe if you did, you would believe like I do. If somebody is breaking down your door, what will you do? If you have a gun, you will protect yourself. Does that make you a tough guy? My wife will do the same thing. Is she a tough guy?
You assume too much. Where was i talking about taking away gun rights? All i said was that if you think students are mature and stable enough to carry guns with them to class, you either must be one yourself or you highly overestimate them.

Of course if someone wants a gun, they are going to get it one way or another but why are there so many gun deaths in the first place? Lets assume its not because of gun laws, what is the problem?

Go ahead and tell the families of those killed by guns that they died in order so people like you can "live like men" and see how they react. Its my opinion that you have some growing up to do and need to let go of the machismo attitude.

Oh and if someone breaks into my home, i have a baseball bat. People don't break into homes with guns tpyically here. And even if they did, unless you have the gun a) by your side B) loaded c) you are awake enough to even realize someone is in your home then your gun won't serve much purpose besides to maybe be used against yourself if more than one person has broken into your home and over powers you while you attempt to shoot at one of them. Guns can help in some situation, there is no doubt but they aren't the answer to everything and the solution to every crime problem, nor is taking them away.
