Well, gun control it is.

We are raised (in many states) in this Nation around guns like those in Canada are raised around bagged milk. It becomes the norm, and something that's a part of life. You wouldn't want me telling you after all these years that you can't have bagged milk because some people use it for evil or are not mentally stable enough to own and use bagged milk. What did my bagged milk do to anyone? I have been enjoying it quietly for years with no harm to anyone.

I am the first to admit not everyone is stable or mature enough to own firearms. What is the answer? I can't begin to say. I have my ideas. What I can say is it's not my fault I was born in a country that allows me to be an enthusiast and collect the guns I am interested in. I obey gun laws, am respectful of other shooters, keep them secure, and do believe they are too accessible to bad and mentally ill people. I would rather see some compromise on registration or back ground checks before I see my rights jeopardized by the actions of others.

Having said that, I respect the opinions of the left that some type of action needs to be taken, because it's proving to not be working at the moment. Enforce existing laws. Get criminals off the streets. Bring back the insane asylums. Heck, I don't know.
