Here is a VERY GOOD REASON why we need weapons ...

Under the law Felons loose their "right" to own firearms. Then if you let someone out of jail that is a Thief, that Thief will steal a firearm.


Makes a good argument for doing what the Saudis do...Cut off the trigger finger. See how that will work.

I can't help but think some enterprising felon would invent a way to fire a gun without a trigger. What would you cut off then?

Guns don't kill people ,people kill people.
If you took all the guns away people would still kill people just a different way.
We have a right to have guns and that is the way it should be.

Absolutely horrific! Incidents like that are what keep me "carryin" on a regular basis. I do feel that ALL handguns should be registered to their owners, but law-abiding citizens should absolutely have the right to posess firearms (or any lesser hand-to-hand weapons). Actually, I'd prefer to carry a collapsible baton instead of my handgun, but the baton is illegal to conceal-carry in NY, and the handgun isn't. With a stick, I could choose the lethality of my actions, with a gun all I can do is shoot center mass.

As this would be the only thing that a total ban on guns would accomplish.
Removing weapons from legal owners.
