Yes and it is our right to bear arms as the second amendment granted us.

I do not know all the stats about this or that but one thing I know. Most crimes are not committed by law abiding gun owners. Most crimes are committed by the criminals. Anyone if they know the right questions to ask to the right people can get a gun off the streets to use as they see fit. These guns were stolen from somewhere else and are not legally owned. It is these guns that most law enforcement officers are worried about in crimes.

I have carried and owned a hand gun for well over 20 years in those 20 + years I have only drawn and shot my gun three times (other than at a range). I can tell you I was justified each time and I have never pulled it out of anger. Most gun owners are very responsible people. We believe in gun safety.

See this is what I am talking about. You have a couple people go off and kill a bunch of people and you have all these gun control people coming out of the wood work demanding tighter gun laws. Well I think the deaths still would have occurred even if they had tighter laws because those that go out to kill a bunch of people would have gotten their hands on a unregistered or stolen gun and used it just the same.

IF they had loosed controls and some of those people who were killed owned a gun and shot back how many people would have died? Would the gunman who went in there to kill have thought different if there was a right to carry in the state? I have seen that many crimes involving guns go down in states that have the right to carry law. Much of this is due to criminals do not want to face someone who has a gun just like them. Criminals are cowards who like to have the upper hand. The criminal that has a gun to use on people who do not is what that criminal wants.

I will agree completely. Aren't there already a lot of laws on the books? How many laws did the guy break in order to do what he did? Did those laws slow him down in the slightest? How will even more intrusive laws make a difference?

I think the main concern is who has the gun and not getting the gun. You're right though no matter how many laws are made there will always be someone willing to sell a black market gun. Having to do get it on the black market might slow the process down though and since they have to go through someone the police can find snitches to tell who bought what.

The black market can be extremely efficient. When lawful activity becomes illegal, then the black market ramps up, and becomes very fast. Eventually, the most law-abiding citizens will turn to the black market to fulfill their needs.

What all of the gun laws do is ensure that the criminals don't have to worry much about their victims having any sort of self-defense. The NRA and other gun rights organizations gather and publish a lot of stories about how a citizen just letting a criminal know that they are armed have stopped crimes. I seem to remember that the ratio is about 10 crimes prevented by the use of guns to 1 crime committed with a gun.

However, you will only learn about these things if you look for them. The media refuses to report them.

This is the fault of the media. Since the media does not like gun and is very anti gun rights we hear about all the guns that are causing problems and nothing about the guns that are helping others.
