I Am a Gun Owner [Gun Ownership]

I'm not currently, but I'd like to be one in the future. I'd never aim it at a person (or any living thing), of course.

as the rule says don't aim at something you don't intend to kill
It's scary seeing how many people have died from poor gun owners pointing around their weapon without precaution.

Yeah this is why you need a license to own one so many stupid people

@WaterSpirit: In most states (not all)you don't need a license to own a gun, at least not in the US. If bought from a gun shop of any type or gun show there is a mandatory background check. From state to state the laws vary greatly over handguns.

It is why I take issue with with some us ;aws

Which ones though?
I don't see a problem with any adult owning any kind of gun as long as they don't have a criminal record or mental problems on their record. It would also be better if every state would allow open carry.
I remember back when I was in highschool in the 80's people brought there hunting rifles and shotguns to school all the time.
No one freaked, and this was on Long Island, NY.

its more the gun shows and rifles are fine as far as im concerned but pistols are responsible for 60-70 percent of all mass shooting their should be more restrictions on them but I see your point

Pistols I concur are an issue, it's why they generally have much longer wait period for approval. As pro-2A as I may be, I do think in order to carry them concealed they should require a permit and real training. Virginia, the state I live in allows you to have pistol with no permit as long as you openly carry it.

that is not so bad then no wonder cops are so heavy armed in usa lol
Niburu · 51-55, M
heavily armed? they have a pistol and maybe a tazer
Niburu's right. Most American cops have an ego that's more lethal than their firepower.

@Killers: THIS, they've gone too far in protecting their own and have made it much harder to get rid of the bad apples
