Great video! Thumbs up!

@Glockwork9 Thanks friend. I fully support the right to own a gun. I just wish we had better (widespread) gun safety education.

Sorry for the late response...

The Violence in the US is for a large part due to our senseless prohibition revisited, statistics will verify this, 24 % increase in crime between 1920 and 1924, back then it was rum runners, and bootleggers, now days its cartels and gangs, but its easier to blame whats legal and create new (and destined to fail) laws then actually look at who is committing the violence and why. Yes, gun laws are destined to fail, because the ones who care about the laws aren't the ones breaking them already.

Great comment.

"the ones who care about the laws aren't the ones breaking them..."

[NoCryingNowYes]

I totally agree. But merely 2 or 3 years ago I would've said that guns's only purpose is to kill people and they should be forbidden.

Then I realized that making something illegal doesn't make it disappear, it merely makes it less accessible for people who don't want trouble.

Furthermore, if a police officer needs a gun to protect him/herself, so do everyone else.

If we just got rid of drug laws, crime rates would drop enormously, and there would be almost no gangs.

Gun Control: Using both hands on the fire arm.

It's nice to see a person with common sense. If guns kill people, Then all of mine are malfunctioning. The thought of getting shot is the only thing that keeps criminals at bay.

Isn't it nice to know, That when seconds count, The police are just minuites away? If they respond at all. It has already been ruled by the SCOTUS, that police officers are only required to protect the interests of the city they serve and to enforce the laws. They have NO responsibility to protect you as a citizen.

Another note, for me it isn't about hunting. I do not like the whole idea of hunting, but it is for defense from criminals and possibly from the government.

[UnschoolingEagle]

I very much agree with you in this video. I, personally, will be getting guns for show and for home defense.

I also do not like the idea of only the government having weaponry such as guns. When you start disarming the citizens it only leads to worse abuses (most likely at least). Though an extreme example we can look at Nazi Germany.

i own several guns and i totally agree with your video. also crazypants88 has a very valid point. the average murder takes a few seconds, the average police response takes a few minutes, also the majority of armed responses by citizens are nonlethal and just having a gun is a good enough deterant of crime

[crazypants88]

The gun laws in my country are fucking ridiculous. After the immense problem of just getting the licencse, it has to be reavaluated once every 10 years.

Also just my favorite argument against gun control is that in order to enforce gun control you need guns. You aren't removing guns from society, you're just taking them away from one group of people and giving it to another.

Anyway good video.
