Yes, they are! I own several and feel very protected. the give a sense of security knowing that in the event that an intruder makes the mistake of entering my residence, he'll be leaving in a body bag, and my wife and children can resume a normal life. they're awesome. I suggest a Sig Sauer 229, in .40 or .45. You don't want the guy limping away now, do you!

Here we go again-gun control-you can take all the guns away and a person , persons that are so deeply disturbed and so dark with hate and determined to kill -Will.There are more efficient ways to kill many people than guns -like fire,bombs, suppose he had barricaded the doors to a large classroom as they are in college/tech and university schools and thrown a molotov cocktail or exploded himself with powerful bomb as the suicide bombers-I think more would have been killed and it would have been a carnage ---do we then ban lighters,matches and so on. If a person is determined to do they will find a way to accomplish their goal. Instead of banning the means we need to examine the means available in mental health care of how to get a person so obviously dangerously disturbed into treament whether they agree or not for in oder to avoid these events from happening the reasons for it,the innder disturbances that drive a person to such things must be addressed and helped.

When can everyone come to the realization that there are horrible people in this world. They would kill and destroy with a marshmallow if that was all they had. They will always find a way, and it so happens in this case (VT) he didn't have to put much thought into it, he just drove down to the nearest dealer and pick up a hand gun. He would have done this at any cost with anything he could have found. People who are that demented just have one goal and that is to destroy and kill. God bless them all!

In the Salt Lake City shooting, an armed citizen dropped the Bosinian jihadist. Every edition of NRA publications has a list of recent situations where armed citizens saved their lives and that of their loved ones with a legally owned and used firearm. Had VT NOT banned legal carrying of firearms on campus, there might have been someone to stop him. In Isreal faculty can carry weapons, and they don't have school shootings there. A person who stalks women, sets fires to dormitories, etc. and gets away with it because everyone is afraid of "political correctness" is never going to get a criminal record to disqualify him from buying a gun. The campus likewise felt it shoudl be confidential that he was mental and under treatment, which also would not have shown up in his request to purchase a gun. And it wouldn't have stopped him from aquiring one, or even using a different weapon or making one, because it was evident he was up to bad things and had been scheming sometime. If everyone figured out what "ismail axe" meant they would be better off to ban that mental disorder.

What killed all those students was a national obsession with not stepping on anybody's rights, no matter how bizarre and threatening their behavior is. It had nothing to do with handguns. The worst U.S. school attack was in 1927, and used dynamite and a firebomb with a toll of 46. You should read the truth about Columbine. If the bombs they had rigged to propane tanks had gone off, it would have been much worse.

Isn't sarcasm wonderful? Complete idiots can create an image that they have something to say.
Too bad that this is another moronic answer to a serious question.
It's a shame that instead of solving the problem of people snapping and losing hope in thier lives, you choose to pick the naive and simplistic view that guns are the problem.

A gun would sit and rust if no one picked it up and fired it. A plane would sit on the tar mack if no one got behind the controls and slammed it into buildings. Drugs, used properly, are not a problem - the people who abuse them are. You cannot blame a gun, plane or a pill for the problems of the world. You have to blame the people who misuse them!

Banning guns in Washington D.C. increased the number of deaths caused by guns.
Criminals prey on unarmed people.

So is the liberals call to disarm in fact a unconscious wish to be victimized?
Note we have a choice to protect one's self or become a victim, they wish to do away with means of self protection. So could that be some sort of a perverted sexual thing to become a victim
