I hate anti-gun laws!!!! I live in Milwakee, and the only people walking around the streets with guns are the criminals! I guarentee if everyone was carrying a gun, the criminals would think twice about using theirs!!!!!!

I don’t understand some people. Maybe since I live in Louisiana it can be said that I’m too stupid to have a opinion that makes a logical point. If a person is going to break the law why would they stop what they are doing and think “crap, it’s against the law to have a handgun so I’ll just report and turn it in before I break into this house and rob it”. I guess they know better, but can they beat an IQ of 152 in the 9th grade? doubt it, but money will prevail over intelligence.

Taking things away so that we might not commit a crime with it is not a principle that we want to introduce into this country.
What is next. Cars? If we ban cars it will stop drunk driving. Eventually everybody’s hands will have to be chopped off so nobody can choke anybody to death. Baseball bats? Murders are committed with base ball bats.
If responsible licensed students had not been denied their constutional rights to bare arms, someone could have shot the va. nut before he killed so many people.
Gun control just got defenseless people killed

I think a good comparison study between England (with strict gun laws (e.g. no handguns allowed)) and Switzerland (600,000 issued machine guns to civilians) is illustrative.

England has a lot of violent crime and Switzerland has nearly none at all.

I know there are other causes, but itâ€™s not illogical to believe that the gun laws play at least a contributing role in thisâ€¦

Wow, let’s label Waldron and those that support him as “kooky” and maybe we can dismiss them as nutjob gun lovers. Shame on Eileen Force. Why can’t gun ban supporters see that disarming the citizenry leads to an increase in violent crime? It happened in Canada, Australia, and don’t get me started on Washington D.C.!!
Good article, I hope that Tom Barrett wakes up and realizes his mistake.
