I am not saying anyone can change the world overnight, but by banning guns being sold legaly in america it would stop the non crinimal phsychopaths from getting them as easily as it is at the moment.
crinimals will always get guns I agree but I don't understand how you think not banning guns will make your country better on a whole.
And as for you rednecks having a gun dosent protect you, If someone pulls a gun out on you its rather unlikely you'll be able to get your gun out before your brain's are on the floor.and what if you dont have a gun? I hear you say, well theres not much you can do. BUT GUNS ARE NOT THE ANSER!!!!!!!

I agree 100%, but not with ur term 'rednecks'. The Constitution is an old parhment written when slavery, defranchisement of women all existed so it is obviously outdated stating that everyone has the right to bear arms. Just because you have the right doesn't mean that you should exploit it, these days it seems more like a privilege not a right. So I suppose anyone the likes guns can just stand behind the constitution, and not question whether it is sensible to let anyone buy guns over the counter with little or no ID or even a background check. Well at least the second admendment is protecting someone - the NRA and huge companies that profit from guns and amunition, which are designed for one thing, kill.

Banning guns isn't going to stop a psycho. There's knives and clubs and all sorts of other ways to kill, mame and torture innocent people. Atleast with a gun you might stand a chance to protect yourself or leave some means for the police to find the nut job coz I'm sure not going to make it easy. So I totally disagree. Utopia is in another lifetime.....you're a fool to beleive it will ever happen here when there's sickos strapping bombs to kids and nut jobs chopping peoples heads off.

You misguided Liberals swear that G.W. Bush is dismantling the Constitution, but yet you attack the Second Amendment.
What a bunch of hypocrites!
If gun control works, why has the UK formed special Police Teams to address the rise of gun crime in the UK?
Why was the Mayor of Nagasaki Japan murdered. Where the Chief of Police stated "The only people in Japan with guns are the Gangsters."
It takes 20 to 45 minutes for police to make a emergency response in my area. I'll keep my gun .... Oh, I'm trained and a retired police officer and as a police officer, I trained civilians for their pistol permits. 100% NRA too!

Ashley? I have a question for you. Why do you insist on denigrating farmers and agrarians? Redneck is a derogatory reference to people who til the soil to grow the food you eat, much like the "N word" is derogatory of those who happen to be of primarily African stock. I would think someone like you might have more respect than that.
As to the 2nd Ammendment, it cannot be repealed. Bill of Rights. The People have the right to use any means necessary to change their government (hopefully they will never have to resort to force and the ballot box will be the only revolution fought), otherwise defend themselves, or even supply food for the family. Ever hear of Montana? In states like that, there are people who live hundreds of miles from the nearest settlement of note. In Ironsburg, Tn, here in the Eastern US, if there is an incident where the police need to respond, the quickest they can be there is 60 minutes, according to 911 dispatchers. One hour is a long time, if you know someone is coming after you with a gun or knife.

While you're ripping the Constitution to shred, especially the 2nd Amendment, would you also like to ban speech? After all, words can be dangerous and hurtful. Just ask Don Imus.
Then when Comrade Ashley is done trashing those basic rights, maybe she could throw everyone who disagrees with her into a gulag or concentration camp until their minds are right. Just like Comrade Ashley's.

You liberals are so motive on saving the human race from itself that each and every time something like this happens all you are able to think of is BAN BAN BAN. right here is what you're up against: There are over 6.5 billion diverse persons on the earth. with the intention to end what you may come across to be a suitable international you will might desire to convince one and all of those 6.5 billion plus persons that your way of existence is the suitable way and that they might desire to stay their existence below your regulations and carry all destiny generations in this form besides. this might contain right here: they might purely eat government authorized food, as to no longer get fat. they are actually not allowed to have something that their neighbor does not have in view which may be psychologically adverse the neighbor. There may well be not extra donning activities, or if there have been they might purely be allowed to end in ties. (Sorry NASCAR followers, 40 3 vehicles will no longer be able to pass the end line on a similar time so we are out of excellent fortune). you're actually not allowed to furnish your self with protection, while you're threatened merely crumple and assume the fetal place and want for the suitable. i'm useful you are able to arise with so lots extra regulations to stay by using interior the Liberal suitable international, yet you get the assumption. it incredibly is a superb form of paintings so which you would be able to realize this which you better get off that chair and get busy.

If you don't want one don't have one and quit your whining! I know it's hard for liberals not to find something to whine about everytime something happens, but really..get over it. These things do not happen all the time. Don't you know what happened when they banned alcohol? Do you also think we should ban airplanes because sometimes terrorists hijack them? I think since liberals want to complain about all of our freedoms they should move to their own little island where they can complain all day long and we won't have to listen to it.
Also..to your redneck statement...you are obvioulsy showing YOUR ignorance. Many people own guns who aren't rednecks, such as police, FBi agents, city people, counrty people, ect. And what exactly is a "redneck?"

I'm on the fence with this one. I can see what your saying but banning guns is unrealistic. This psycho would have got a gun regardless. What you need to question is how he walked into a college campus with an "ungodly" amount of ammunition.

Your argument is as bad as your spelling. Banning guns in Britain has resulted in a state of affairs where the criminals have the guns, and everybody else suffers. And you ought to get some experience of guns before you and the other Britons(of whom I am ashamed ) pontificate about things they know nothing of. I am English .
