Hmm...I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic directly with me or if you
were merely adding more humor...
If, perchance, you missed my meaning here, purhaps I can clear it up a bit...
Making guns illegal will only make things worse.
Narcotics were only an habitual problem involving a few accidental deaths
until they were banned...now we've got a multi-billion dollar-a-year crime
problem...
When alcholhol was banned, a similiar problem arose...
Do you really think it wise to ban guns knowing the repurcussions of past
attempts to ban potentialy lethal luxuries?
Give me a break, the last thing I need is for my life to be turned upside
down because of some yahoo shooting his illegal gun somewhere on my forty
acre property...(an opinionated reference to some outrageous narcotics laws).
