I know what you're saying, but once we give the govt. the power to determine who is "crazy" and who isn't we are making a huge mistake.

That guy is an old redneck living out in the woods. There are millions of them across the country just like him. They will shoot your ass in a heartbeat if they catch you on their land.

That's just the way it is.

As for "bullshit" line...I will guarantee you that no "criminal" would ever steal from that guy. lol

This whole gun debate is looking more and more to me to be just another way to give the govt. more power over people. Has nothing to do with guns in my humble opinion.

The guns are just the vehicle to allow the govt. to decide who to brand as "crazy" and that opens the door to taking property (which the govt. does all the time with "eminent domain" bullshit) and people declaring their family members "crazy" so they can take their stuff.

Think about it for a minute...maybe you don't like people having guns. But I'd trust crazy old fucks like that (there are MILLIONS of them and this is ONE guy doing something stupid) with guns before I trust the U.S. govt any day of the week.

Don't forget what the U.S. Govt. has done over the years and is still doing today. Sneaky and HORRIBLE shit. Thousands of people killed worldwide...hell, they even did "experiments" on black people and STD's (and only recently apologized to the survivors)

No...I personally do not want to give our govt. ANY more power over people's lives.

Just enforce the laws already on the books.

Stop trying to "prevent" shit that can't be prevented. It's no different than the U.S. pre-emptively invading Iraq for imaginary "weapons of mass destruction".

Old coots in the backwoods are always cranky and trigger happy. Unless you want to turn this country into a police state, there's nothing that can be done about that.

One crotchety old guy goes off his rocker. It happens unfortunately.

But do you really want to trust those fucking thieves and murdereres in Washington D.C.?

That's why I say just revoke the 2nd Amendment. Problem solved. Govt. doesn't get to delve deeper into our lives and guns just become illegal or not according to law instead of the constitution.
