My father gave me a Spyderco knife when I was 16, still have it to day. It is a heavy thing, but works beautifully. I dont carry it anymore seeing as it is my most expensive knife and I thought I lost it one time and got upset. I keep wanting to get some more… but they are so expensive… meanwhile I just bought another pistol…. maybe I am lying to myself…
So many people are perfectly willing to pay $600-800 for a pistol but scoff at $100 for a very good knife. It’s a lot easier to lose than a gun but I’ve been carrying a $300 Benchmade daily for years, it’s just in my hand or in my sheath at all times. Don’t put it down, put it away.
There is no reason to ban guns when the problem can be solved with strict background checks. Everything is regulated including every other right in the constitution even free speech. It is illegal for me to incite, slander, plot. Those are regulations on 1st. 2nd should be no different. End of argument.
He gets it. Carrying a gun isn’t my preference; it’s the least bad choice when with all their rituals, the “No guns for you.” crowd ouldn’t keep that murderous whack-job out of that church…
… or get his convictions into their check system,
… or protect his wife n kid before that,
… and in the event, hey still sbowed up10 minutes behind the deplorable clinger who wasn’t even on site when it happened.
Meanwhile, the B A T F (and entrapment, gun-running & really big fires) did roust an FFL about a couple of whack-job-guy’s other guns. Turns out they ran checks, which he passed, but one must wonder: What difference, at this point, does it make?
At the very least, I give myself the chance to protect myself or my family.
I can’t control where evil will manifest, and I can’t guarantee that I can successfully protect myself, but I can at least ensure that my end won’t be as sheep led to the slaughter.
I do so miss failure to fire. I really wish He would bring it back.
on a side note are you sure this isn’t a serious bill? It might not look like one to you and I, but I’m sure they would love to pass it as written

PDF file of the bill. Haven’t even made it past page 5 and I’m already frothing-at-the-mouth. Among other things that bans shotguns with revolving cylinders. but I don’t see where to Define shotgun. now since they make shotgun shells, AKA snake shot, for everything from 22 to 20 that would pretty much take all revolvers out of operation. Or maybe I’m just reading too much into it.
What the offended snowflakes wish to ban but cannot they price and regulate beyond the ability to pay for and meet regulations to have.
It was such once when unable to ban firearms the banners tried to ban Ammunition as Ammo was not mentioned in the second amendment.
Then when that failed set about making ammunition to costly to buy.
The current Bump stock ban in planning bans certain parts of a fiream in order to make it less able to shoot rapidly which means any part of the weapon can be banned that makes it shoot more than one shot at a time.
Gun banners are devious.
One gun after another..
It’s not about guns anymore.
It’s about the Democratic agenda to rule..
But first, They must disarm all citizens so we are unable to resist.
Check your history books..
Control of every thought, every action..
Citizens being children ruled by governmental parents..
Subjects of a Democratic regime..
Sooooo…… little Faith wants the NRA to tell the truth about guns. Do we blame drugs, alcohol or both? Is a comparative intelligence test with a bag of hammers in order? Did that little princess receive a Certificate of Merit for walking and chewing gum simultaneously?
Tell the truth about guns? Child, there is a web site for that.
At first glance, “more guns, less democrats” seems like a rather extreme yet very good idea. It would never pass constitutional muster. Plus, it would be socially and economically disruptive, and really messy. You do receive bonus points for thinking outside the box.
