I apologize for the tardiness of this post as the story was originally posted in November of 2011. If it has been previously posted, I apologize as well. I just heard about it last night and thought it quite intriguing and important enough to post here.

As I wish people to form their own opinions of articles, I will say no more. But I really hope it makes both sides of the issue think.

If you are unable to click the link please let me know and I will try to find a more usable link.

It opened for me but may not be user friendly for a lot of folks.

My opinion is none of this gun regulation crap has ever been about controlling guns, it is as it has always been about controlling people.
When ever there is any sort of shooting by some whacko the first thing the liberals do is blame the gun regulations. But when some whacko sets off a bomb or two the bomb is never at fault it's the whacko!
The liberal mindset is just not mentaly balanced, they are sick people that want the government to do everything for them having no clue what it brings about.

I wanted to add the caveat because I did not know if people would be asked to sign up just to read the article I posted. I h**e it when it happens to me, and do not wish it to happen with an article I post.

Gun control laws is about "controlling guns by punishing
everyone". It's like cutting off a whole hand to keep the
other four fingers from getting gangrene like the first finger's first knuckle did.
Gun laws control no one. Outlaws will get them since they're
not worried about breaking the law anyway. It won't stop
them.

America's gun laws come directly from the t***slated N**I Gun Control LAWS as introduced by then Senator Dodd!

C*******ts then N**IS and c*******ts have disarmed those they intend to murder, History has proves this time and again. Just ask Holocaust survivors, those from the K*****g Fields of Cambodia, those murdered by liberals in Viet Nam, how about those CHE murdered in Cuba?

It did not open for me. I tried several different incantations, but none seemed to have the desired effect. Please find alternate link, or alternate spell.

Vern, gun control laws certainly do control people. Gun laws are designed to eliminate guns by a number of ways, registration, confiscation, disinterest by the public because of cost, liability, and recently because of lack of components. These are just a few of the ways gun control laws work. Every country that has allowed their firearms to be taken from them has had death and destruction rain down on them or to be controlled by a dictator. England restricted ownership of firearms to the point that the US had to supply them with arms just to keep Germany from taking over their country. Now guns are few and far between. They also have a higher violent crime rate per capita than the US does. Japan did not invade the US during WW2 because they knew the cost would be to high. Watch any documentary on WW2 and the most glaring thing that stands out is the fact that no civilians had any firearms to protect themselves with and millions were slaughtered. I could go on for hours but if that is not control of people then I guess I missed the boat somewhere. :roll:

Also take a look at Chicago, The strictest gun laws in the country and the highest murder rate simply because honest law abiding citizens are forbidden to protect them selves.
This is exactly what dumbohcrap leadership does! Chicago is the prime example of the criminal element the useful i***ts in this country have put in DC and this whole country will be in the same shape as Chicago if we don't get rid of the criminal element in DC!
