I don't think Ive seen a post on #offtopic discussing this topic. I am new here :P Concealed carry for those wondering. Oh and when I say guns should be purchasable for hunting I am saying that a hunting license should be required in order to buy a gun.

    • Well the idea is that hopefully they are responsible and only use it for self defense. Unless you in Texas. In Texas we have daily gun fights for the fun of it. Hehe kidding.

      • Gun handling is a right in the U.S. As such I think that it should be taught in schools and closely regulated as to concealed carry. This should be Federally regulated and all the states would have the same rulings. As it is now, is a mess of every state having different rules and the cluster -blam!- of making people convicted criminals in one state and while it would be perfectly legal in another state. California is famous for making criminals out of citizens.

        • Yes, yes, and yes. People think CC owners commit crimes just because they carry guns, but what actually happens is that the people who illegally carry are the ones who cause a lot of crimes. Anyone intellectual enough would understand that the process you must go through to be able to carry legally usually separates the criminals and the good citizens. And I'd rather non-American's judge whether or not we need a ban or not. You worry about your own country and we'll worry about ours.

          • If the us would have had gun control from the beginning, we would not be having this problem, however, now, everyone has guns, so it will be nearly impossible to get them back, so they shouldn't take them back.

              • Yes, through and through, yes. Concealed and open carry shouldn't scare anybody. Also, that whole [i][b][u]Shall not be infringed[/u][/b][/i] part applies. Weapons aren't to fear.

                  • Guns. Don't. Kill. People. My guns have never harmed anything. Living or inanimate. I however, have. With my guns. You can rest assured that if you approach me inside rule 20 and make it known to me consciously or subconsciously that you wish harm on me or mine, i will be the one charged with justifiable homicide, not my gun I carry. Always. Along with my gun, i have 46 other reasons my family will stay safe under my watch. No. My gun doesn't kill people. My gun is just a tool I am the weapon.

                    • I love this argument. A hunting license should be required to buy a gun. Really a permit valid for 12 months should be a requirement for purchase of a fire arm? A whopping $25 piece of paper I can procure at Wal Mart from the guy they won't let sweep the pharmacy will fix gun crimes. You anti gunners know even less about hunting than you do about guns.

                    • Guns are merely a means to an end. In case you didn't know, people have been killing each other since a caveman figured that he could break his neighbor's head with a rock. Wars have been fought for hundreds of years, mainly WITHOUT guns, and even if guns magically disappeared, [i]MURDERERS WOULD STILL MURDER[/i]. Tl;dr, Guns aren't the problem, people are.

                    • I don't understand how guns are the issue. Guns are simply a means to an end. Murder and violence have been around ever since the first retard picked up a rock and smashed another retard with it. The fact that I have two hands just like he did shouldn't preclude me from owning any particular thing! I can kill/hurt/threaten just as many people with a car, a large fork, three angry dogs or a sharpened stick.
