Retailers start to pull some rifles from shelves

the problem is not guns. Assuming we could take away the ability to have them as non felony-commiting citzens (Protected by the second ammendment, in turn protected by the 10th), what would we do then? Guns arent the problem. the problem is the immature handling of guns. Columbine was bad control, this was bad gun control. the guns in Sandy Hook should not have been accessable to the shooter, plain and simple. but the guns themselves were not the core of the problem. if there werent guns, he could have stabbed them like in China. then theyd have died slower and more painfully.

im ranting, but enough.

Lets see now. The government passes a law banning assault type guns. Once that is completed it is a very short step to banning semi-automatic hunting guns. Then a short step to semi-automatic hand guns. Then a short step to shotguns. Then a short step to revolvers. Then a short step to ANY firearm whatsoever. Then "they" just come and get whatever or whomever they want.

I wonder if all of the games that these kids are watching / playing day after day after day where they are blowing people to bits (body parts flying everywhere) is effecting them at all.....when the game is over, everybody is O.K.  That is not reality. We are "programming" them little by little. In "game life" it seems to be O.K. to kill everything is sight, so why not go into the real world and do the same thing??

There are so many problems that I am afraid that we have gone a bit too far.

Thumbs up to Walmart and Cabela's for not reacting to the irrational attitude of the anti-gun crowd, who seem to think that more gun laws will help psychopaths to become law abiding citizens. Law abiding citizens have the responsibility and the right to defend themselves and their families against the law breakers and lunatics who prey on the defenceless of society. This was graphically demonstrated last Friday- what more defenceless segment of society than children? Taking away the ability of the lawful to defend themselves and those under their care is not common sense. Last week in China a mad man went into a school and killed 20+ children with a knife! Is the answer to that to take away all knives?

Winston Churchill said it well: "A gentleman will seldom if ever need a pistol. However, if he does, he needs it very badly." The ability to defend yourself does not make you uncivilized, it protects you from those who really are uncivilized.

Walmart and Cabela's will continue to get my business as long as they continue to conduct their business in a sane and rational manner.

What if you got to keep all your guns, but mentally unstable individuals could not? What if you got to keep all your guns, but violent felons could not? What if you got to keep all your guns, but the person planning the next act of terrorism on US soil could not simply go to a gun show and walk out with a van full of easily converted to fully automatic weapons? You keep yours, provided you’re not mentally ill, violent felon, or a terrorist, and they give up theirs. What if that cut the murder rate in ½? What if it saved someone you love?

“God Bless America, Land That I Love!”

Mob rules. Good luck. Without compromise, we are truly lost.

Do not think that I have come to abolish the or the ; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven (5:17-20).
