I support the right of every human to own and to carry a gun. Period. That doesn't mean I trust every armed person. There are some people who simply can not be trusted with guns, even though they have the right to own and carry them and no one has the right to forbid it. Those are separate issues.

I've known some of those who couldn't be trusted with a gun. They are simply too dangerous or unstable to trust. With or without a gun.

A guy who comes to mind was very reckless, spastic, and impulsive. I went out shooting with him once. Only once. Never again. He had no muzzle awareness and wouldn't keep his finger off the trigger. He left town saying it was his intention to join the military-- they deserved the likes of him.

No one who would wear a government uniform can be trusted with a gun-- and that especially applies to cops. I don't trust them with a gun any more than I would trust an angry diseased monkey with a loaded and cocked gun with a hair trigger and no safety. Anyone who would demean themselves enough to become a government tool obviously has serious issues with authoritarianism and aggression.

This doesn't mean I'll ask government to keep guns out of their hands. It means I will consider them dangerous morons and always try to stay away from them. It means I will warn others to be alert around them. This sort of person deserves to be shunned to death, unless they grow up and take responsibility-- which would begin with shedding the uniform and making an honest effort at becoming a good guy.

Weapons do not lead to destruction and murder
I hate weapons because they always kill us

You can hate weapons, but your hate is misplaced.
Weapons are simply tools. Bad people use them to harm the innocent, while good people use weapons to protect the innocent. In fact, the gun is the best tool ever invented for protecting the small or the weak from the big and the strong, with less chance of being injured in the encounter.
Weapons don't "always kill us", they usually protect us. But if only the government/bad guys have weapons, then you're going to see them in a negative light.

You speak good words
But I hate her because she killed many people for the innocent
But bad people are so many more good people who protect
There are good people who killed people unintentionally
So the permanent peace is used only to kill

i knew i saw him somewhere. stooges1.jpg

The government has a monopoly on police.... Its sad before government we used to depend on sound citizens, who were very much liked in the community to be the sheriff. Privatize Police!

Even if they are privatized, I'll opt out. I don't need anyone "policing" my neighbors on my behalf.

Right thats how it works some people will pay another to walk though the community or drive through the community, but of course you are not obligated to pay anyone to protect you.

i agree with you.To me, human rights are more important.

Ya you are right but its depends on the human mentality totally we cant judge them ..great post ..thumbs up man..@dullhawk..

Do you judge rapists? Why are cops any different?
