History is loaded with examples of what happens when city, state or federal powers limit private ownership of guns. It never ends well, simply look at what Quantrell did to Lawrence, KS. Or Hitler did to Germany.

People have a right to defend themselves against any threat to their life, liberty or property that right is useless without the means to exercise it.

So many people fear guns instead of the person (or government) wielding it. They think that sacrificing that freedom will give them security. They should heed the words of Ben Franklin "Whoever would sacrifice freedom for security doesn't deserve, nor will he have either one"

The misinformation in this thread is appaling...people who think private ownership of an AK47 isnt legal...guess what, it is. citizens can own machines gun, guns with silencers, flamethrowers, whatever, but as of 1969 they must have the federal stamp to do so. There are other requirements but to say ownership is illegal is simply ignorant of current gun laws.

Banning anything, be it alcohol, drugs, porn or guns doesn't do anything to curb crime, it simply creates more violent crime in the black market that comes with the ban. People need to open their eyes and use common sense and stop trying to blame "things" for peoples bad behavior.
