Gun owners and non-gun owners alike agree on expanding background checks, making gun trafficking a serious crime with stiff penalties, making it illegal for all stalkers and all domestic abusers to buy guns, and expanding mental health resources so the mentally ill find it easier to receive treatment than to buy firearms.
I don't believe there should be any restrictions when it comes to firearms. None.
The knee-jerk approach of those who want to control firearms may not be the solution.
After a week of back and forth, and forth and back over firearms, it's good to see a consensus developing on this common-sense amendment to keep handguns away from children.
More than safeguarding someone's life, firearms safeguard the freedom of a people.
I lost interest in firearms because we had a dog that was scared to death of the sound of a rifle shot.
The Gun Control Act of 1968 was an attempt to impose order. It set up the Federal Firearms License (FFL) system; gun stores would have to become licensed, and they would have to follow certain rules. Felons, illegal immigrants, and crazy people would be prohibited from buying guns.
I think there's always going to be a problem dealing with firearms, with knives. It's the animal we are that cause the problems.
I collect firearms, and I've got a Winchester, an Indian rifle. It has tacks for every warrior that was shot, like notches on a pistol, and it's got feathers and beads hanging off it. It's like a work of art.
I was very fascinated by the time when firearms went from being fire sticks to being something people could use to hunt and to survive.
