2bltap Loc: Move to the Mainland

'The Five' react to Biden's 'pathetic' address on crime surge:

I am not a big fan of Geraldo but he does get things correct on occasion. There are many many democrats switching party affiliation due to as they are saying the democrat party left them.

Maybe because that inanimate object can take a life or a number of lives when put int the wrong hands

Yes Indeed, it is going to be a very Bloody Summer.
8 million new gun owners purely for self protection.
Stop and frisk in Chicago is just a start of what we need to do. Louisville KY is now a Crime Sanctuary City. I am doing what it takes to be prepared.

What are you so afraid of?

Your other items do not start life as an object of death. They ALL have the primary purpose of killing something. The primary purpose of a gun is to kill something.

NOTHING

So you know why the first gun was created? Food? Self Defense? Protecton? Military?

Does it matter? What ever the early motivation, it really doesn't matter.

Sure it does and still does. Guns are used by most people to protect and hunt. Criminals need SEVERE consequences for committing crimes. Dont punish people who haven't done wrong. What don't you get about that? I'm telling you right now, with a Doberman, a Rottweiler, and an Akita/Shepard- if you get past that line of defense, you deserve a few holes in you. Imagine if you will, the audacity of someone who would break in a home or business because they feel entitled to take what you have-they need put down

Sorry Abby....er, I mean, Kitten, but you are wrong. The primary purpose of MY firearms are to protect myself and my family. A firearm is a TOOL....yes, and dangerous one, one that must be kept out of the hands of criminals or irresponsible people.....just as a vehicle should, a hammer, a knife, and a thousand other dangerous items.
How will the Biden gun control plan keep guns out of the hands of criminals? Punish the unlawful sale of firearms evern HARDER when they do not enforce the EXISTING laws? If a FFL seller is convicted of illegally selling a firearm, he loses his license and goes to jail. Zero tolerance? Why don't we have that now???? Ban the sell of firearms that just look similar to military weapons? Ban large capacity magazines because they are not "needed"? Do you have any idea how very FEW criminals use either one? If not, you should do a little research.
All of this stuff is simply an excuse for the left taking one more step towards disarming America. These Biden attempts will do NOTHING to lower criminal activity.

Randy, do you actually believe that your opinion is superior to mine, because you think I don't understand the whole *gun culture?* Sorry to disappoint you. I don't care enough about guns to be well-versed on (legal and illegal) gun technology. That said, I know gun culture. Please don't ask me for details; I know how you are.

Not superior, except in the sense that I know what I'm talking about, and I am right, and you are wrong. That does not make my opinion "superior" to yours....simply makes it correct. However, when someone is wrong, I do tend to explain, perhaps too much sometimes, so that they understand WHY they are wrong.
However, in your case, though addressed to you, my intent was to educate others who may be reading this thread.
if you were bored, my apologies.
