I had a long response typed out...
But let's keep it short: Shadow, you're clueless about guns. Admittedly. Maybe
read a LOT about guns (not just googling articles and laws that support your
opinion) and defensive shooting, and then come back and tell us all we should have
access to is a gun meant for hunting BIRDS.
The entire point of a defensive weapon is to shoot a person. That involves, often, multiple rounds fired in quick succession. You believe we should have this ability taken away?
Food for thought:
• A 1997 high school shooting in Pearl, Miss., was halted by the school's vice principal after he retrieved the Colt .45 he kept in his truck.
• A 1998 middle school shooting ended when a man living next door heard gunfire and apprehended the shooter with his shotgun.
• A 2002 terrorist attack at an Israeli school was quickly stopped by an armed teacher and a school guard.
• A 2002 law school shooting in Grundy, Va., came to an abrupt conclusion when students carrying firearms confronted the shooter.
• A 2007 mall shooting in Ogden, Utah, ended when an armed off-duty police officer intervened.
• A 2009 workplace shooting in Houston, Texas, was halted by two coworkers who carried concealed handguns.
• A 2012 church shooting in Aurora, Colo., was stopped by a member of the congregation carrying a gun.
• At the recent mall shooting in Portland, Ore., just 4 days before the school shooting in Conn., the gunman took his own life minutes after being confronted by a shopper carrying a concealed weapon.
2500 times last year alone legal gun owners stopped violent crime when confronted with it long before any police assistance ...
