2nd Amendment anyone?

Date: Fri Sep 16 7:19 PM, 2005

There are other ways to protect yourself--such as, bleach in the eyes, a charged TV capacitor connected to your door knob, a big dog, a baseball bat, knives, forks, gasoline thrown on someone and a zippo lighter, pool cue in the eye, pitchforks and shovels, flaming sticks & loud polka music.

And eventually, the government will outlaw them all.

and what is the most important rule about participating in a gun fight ?

bring a gun .

better still bring a gun that you are very familiar with , a gun that goes bang every time you pull the trigger , a gun that comes up effortlessly that when aimed with your eyes closed and is pointed right where you need it be as your eyes open , a gun that is "sighted in" so that you know where the bullet will land when the shot is taken .

have a laser sight with batteries charged always sighted to point of impact at the range you expect to need . play the laser on the eyes of the unfortunate zero , you may be able to temporarily blind and or disorient him or her without the need to shoot .

try to back up and leave the area but if you must shoot , do not shoot to wound , do not shoot into the air [you may injure someone far away], shoot at the center of mass [torso] .

Is the "waiting period" required so the FBI can do a background check on the prospective owner? Or is the waiting period more time after a background check?

The waiting period is for the background check.

It also includes a 'cool down' period, so if someone is anrgy with someone else, they can't just go get a gun and shoot them. They have to wait a week or more to 'cool down.' So always plan ahead. Buy yourself a gun BEFORE someone pisses you off

NeoCon, firearms have permanent effects. What if you make a mistake while you're sighting between someone's eyes with that laser sight? What if your powerful ammunition goes through your target and kills a 7-year-old girl as well? Guns are not designed to wound, they're designed to kill. You sound too eager (bloodthirsty?) to use that gun.

I'm moving to a state where Tasers are legal. Problem solved.

I can think of about a dozen people off the top of my head that don't own guns & that would probably shoot themselves in the foot or worse someone else accidently if they were given guns in a time of crisis.

I understand the situation, but you can't just hand out guns to people who don't know how to use them.

however, forming a town militia or deputising everyone who wanted a gun & showing them proper gun safty would of been very creative & maybe even legal & a good idea to protect against bands of looter's.

The 30 mins. it took to show people where the safty was & how to load a gun would be quicker than the waiting period.
