Does anyone remember a l little ol' time in the history of the world, affectionately known as "the old west"? There sure wasn't any gun control, and everyone had the right to bear arms I think. I'm also pretty sure they are still digging up the bones of every cowboy, cowpoke, outlaw , lawman, man, woman and child that was killed by one of those guns. Now imagine if they had assault rifles.🤔

@MasterLee 59 people are murdered and it's a crisis? Yeah, the families will get over it by Christmas won't they? I'm done here.

@SophieC not if you keep picking the scab.

@MasterLee I do not have an irrational fear of guns....I have a very rational fear of guns, and particularly , those in the hands of irrational people. My fear is based on reality. My fear is based on actual events. Irrational fear, is based on nothing but circumstantial evidence. A fear of sofa cushions. That's irrational. Sofa cushions have not walked into schools, shopping centers and concert arenas and taken the lives of innocent people. The same can not be said for your guns. You suggest you're not one of the irrational gun toting maniacs, but guess what? Many irrational gun toting maniacs, don't exactly see themselves as irrational gun toting maniacs. Imagine that. I guess I should just take your word for it, eh? Now who's being irrational?

we have a shooting every week just on the few streets around my house, but we are in canada and every single gun was illegally acquired yet these two idiots were so stupid they shot the wrong guy, how in the world do they know how to get a handgun? i for one would feel safer with more than just my karambit, the only legal length knife i own and can carry without being charged..

@xSharp again, thank you for your expertise on the extinguishing of a forest fire. Too bad when they created that trench, they didn't bury all the guns in there, and fill it with cement, but however...

If "criminals" have access to body armor, and it means that much to you...why not be a criminal and get yourself some body armor. I personally don't have an issue with body armor, unless you intend to beat someone to death with it. Understandably, that is as probable as beating someone to death with your hockey stick,and nobody is banning those.

I do still have an issue with hand guns, and assault rifles in the hands of each and every citizen of any country you live in. Life is not a John Wayne movie. There's no distinction between good and bad guys. No white hats, or black hats. Just more potential for unnecessary killing. Imagine if all the people in Vegas had of been armed that night. what would have happened? Nobody could see the shooter. Might have people just started drawing their guns and firing randomly to try and save the day, if not just themselves? How many more people might have been injured or killed in that scenario? It's just a question I ask myself. Like I said....go get your guns and amo. Get your body armor, and be a criminal, a hero , or whatever it is you think that will make you, and be happy. Just don't expect everyone to support your cause.

@SW-User the thing is, the weapons used in vegas were already prohibited to begin with, and so was the flash hider he was using as far as i know, and as far as suppressors go the machine guns would have melted them if they had tried to use them.

they used flash hiders to conceal the location of the other shooters.
