Anyone NOT own a handgun?

[SmallPasture]

I wonder when Canadian provinces will show up on that list.
When they do, I'll have to get a new sling shot and some bear spray.

Judging by the talent of the two that showed up in Texas, that's about all you'll need!

Why do I own a gun and carry?
Look at today's news where ISIS has named 5 of 15 states they have trained terrorists just waiting for a call.
Illinois is named on that list.

Great Point,

After 26 plus years of service to my country and several deployments to the land of sand, I will NOT be threatened by ISIS or any other organization that hinders my way of life in my country. I respect all of those that do not need weapons in order to provide protection to themselves or family or whatever your reasons might be; I still respect that.

But as Jack Nicholson said “You need me on that wall”. If you have to ask see the movie.

Did you ever thought , who invented ISIS ? Try to find the reasons of your deployments , but
if they match officially admitted "mistake" , your service will be more reasonable NOW !!! For that purpose and if needed , I'll join your forces , FEARLESSLY defend our country . That's , what I call A REAL PATRIOTISM !!!!!!!

This has been the most prolific argument I've ever seen on a forum. 17 pages now. I must say that for the most part it has been civil and respectful. And that's a great thing. That's the difference with this forum and others I have been on. Other than threatening George with a wedgie and calling him a s...head I've been pretty good.

I don't understand why so many fear guns; there's nothing to be afraid of.

I don't actually fear guns, it is common sense that not all people should have access to them. My comment was based on the rational given by people here and elsewhere as the reason they carry weapons.

Brian - Those 17 pages are not only about us , but also life , which we should cherish and enjoy , paving path for happiness of everybody , without fear and violence . We need to look thru our hearts and minds , trying to improve coexistence between people , who are sharing this Planet . The history has been teach us already , that peace is the only way of human progress .
Thank you for all comments . I've learned a lot !!!

it's also common sense that not all people should be allowed to drive vehicles, either. But somehow, they get a license. That's why we have to drive defensively, to avoid those who shouldn't be driving. I'm gonna protect myself from those, by any means possible including weapons. Yup, I'm a member of the NRA.

Don't worry you anti gun people,if I am there when some thug puts a gun in you or a member of your families face,dead set on killing,I will defend you to the fullest with my gun if I am able to.
You can thank me afterward.
Something you wouldn't have been able to do if I wasn't there to protect you.
