got a problem..... writing term paper
 

im writing a term paper about GUN CONTROL im agenst it. im trying to prove that to own a gun should be a right (misspelled i think) because i owned one since age 10. a small powered rifle "Ruger 10/22 collecters" it would really suck if guns are banned (that would be a bee-ich) anyone know of good sights and sources that i could search in?

i would really apprechiate some help


any at all

Please use Google! Try searching "2nd amendment rights" or something to that effect.

:bt: thank you cruiser.... im doing source cards right now,

btw....im kidding when i said "old poeple"

Hey...I'm not that old ;) I like to shoot...and eat red meat...

i also need to get information that helps prove what im trying to prove

unhelthy.... ring worm, hook worm. arn't you concerned?

I am a firm believer in a citizens right to bare arms.

That being said:......(all easily offended people tune out now.)

There are WAY too many idiots with easy access to guns. Way too many guns. Way too many useless weapons. Way too many "accidental deaths" every day.

Citizens SHOULD be allowed to arm themselves....WITHIN REASON....let me say it again....WITHIN REASON. If you wish to protect your home a small pistol or shotgun is MORE than enough to thwart a would-be intruder. If you hunt feel free to keep a rifle or three locked in a cabinet/safe with no key...kids can get hold of keys....not your combination.

Citizens should NOT be allowed ANY firearms if:

a. you are a convicted felon (current legilation)
b. convicted of any violent crime even at misdemeanor level
c. are deemed mentaly unable to posess such a weapon
d. are on anti-depressants or have been for a set time period

Firearms are a MASSIVE responisibility and should treated accordingly. Giving someone such a destructive device (with no other purpose but death) is a big assumption that the person is responsible. You know what happens when you assume.....


Give a person a balloon and a knife and it's only a matter of time before you have some limp rubber on the end of a string.

I respect peoples right to bare arms but it has to be the right people and the right arms.

home protection and sports don't require assault rifles or automatic weapons. They don't require more than a 10clip magazine. They DO however require a clear mind, a sense of responsibility and a respect for life (human at least).

I can go on and on but whose mind am I going to change? no'ones

red meat = good for you.

worms = good pets.

Well apparently Matty doesn't want us to go around with sleeveless tops on.

It's the right to BEAR arms, not bare them.

The Jews were not allowed to own firearms ...made it so easy to overpower them....and slaughter them.



Wtf with the worms? Is this a new thing? Like in the new millenium all meat is suddenly dangerous and off-limits?

grammar pwns m3


It was easy to overpower the jews because they are peaceful people who are more concerned with their relationship to God than the number of guns in their homes.

This isn't an argument.....I'm all for SOME citizens owning firearms but I doubt anyone can argue my exemptions being too hard.

And under the current laws (there are many) those types of people are not allowed to legally own guns, or obtain concealed carry permits, etc.




Our founding fathers established our basic rights, including the right to bear arms, so that our other rights would not, COULD not be infringed upon. This includes the right to religious freedom.

Except for the anti-depressent part...although a background check that deems you mentally unstable will be a reason for not being issued a CCW. I just took my class...now I just have to get the background check done.

nice one

good point. never really thought about that.

Funny though. I've been around guns all my life and not a single person I've ever known has committed any crime with their firearms. I guess in Matty's mind, these are the "right people". However, there is always that criminal element and you know how criminals are. They just don't follow the law. Hard to keep guns away from them lawfully, since they have complete and utter disregard for the law...hmmm.

In sharp contrast to the law-abiding gun owner citizens that I know let's talk about the people I know with [oh yes] CARS. Now here's a group of people that are always breaking the law. I've not known one person my whole life who has never broken the law regarding cars! Strange! Cars have the same capacity to kill people (and lots of them at one time too) but no one ever talks about banning cars...or taking the SUV keys away from the incompetent boobs who are not responsible enough to drive them. And like guns, cars are inanimate objects. Only dangerous when in the hands of the wrong type of person, i.e. felonius speeders, street racers, people on drugs (prescrip & illegal types) and alcohol, people that modify their exhaust and remove lawful and important emissions control devices...I could go on, but I'm probably not going to convince anyone either.


:)

Oh, and I never kill balloons...just let them go limp and die peacefully.


Well, unless that balloon violently attacked me, and then I hope that the balloon has made its peace with the balloon god because it will be seeing it soon! :evilgrin:
