So those 82% are all owning guns for murder or war, then? Let's just take this absurd myopic view one step further: Rocks are dangerous weapons that need to be banned! They are readily available to children and highly dangerous!
>> ^L0cky:

Around 6% of US Americans hunt, yet around 34% own a gun; therefore around 82% of gun owners own a gun for something other than hunting. Bringing up hunting is just avoiding the issue.
Besides, I don't think that guy's UZI is for hunting rabbits.
Also, you don't need to teach children how to safely use firearms if they don't have access to firearms. Kinda like how you don't need to teach them how to safely use a particle accelerator, even though they too are dangerous.

So you're offering free classes? And you want to live in a country where every child is taught how to use a firearm?
I'd prefer a society where my kids play too much video games, so I tell them enough already go outside and play!
I'd rather that than feel like I live in a society where I have to teach a seven year old how to kill people (sorry, defend oneself with a deadly weapon).
You know, like Liberia or Mozambique.

I don't know enough about firearms, and own none. I'm hardly qualified. Also, please stop putting words in my mouth. I want to live in a civilized country, where people understand PROPER use of, and care for, firearms, including safety, control, and discipline.
Your obsession with murder is a bit concerning. Firearms are very effective at hunting. They are great at providing food from that use. Why you are so obsessed with war and murder, I really don't know. Should you be on a watch list?

I was raised around guns, I've been trained with guns through the Hunter Core program. Purely for hunting game. (not human targets on the shooting range - mostly tin cans and paper circle targets.)

I've seen rampant gun use by teens because they thought guns were cool. I've seen my dog get his eye shot out because the neighbor kid didn't know the gun he just loaded was loaded. I've seen powder burns up the arm of a friend who thought it would be cool to saw off a shot gun and fire it. I was standing there when a good friend fired a rifle and the barrel exploded showering us all in shrapnel as it ripped apart his ear drums.

I was trained to handle guns, how to hold them, and all the safety and respect that anyone needs to handle guns. But that doesn't change the fact that they can be dangerous.

I live in Canada, yes, I could go out and get a gun any time I wanted, but our culture on guns is different. I don't feel the need to own one and I know the guy next to me isn't holding a concealed one. I have never let my kids have any toy gun that looked like a gun. (Nerf is ok) Guns are never toys - ever - and I've taught my kids that their entire life, just like matches and fire aren't toys. You just don't mess around with them.

I don't own a gun now nor do I ever see myself owning one. I like the culture of not needing to own one. I can understand a rifle and a shotgun for hunting (locked in a gun safe when not used.) I don't understand and cannot support the necessity for handguns and automatic weapons. Even semi-automatic weapons are unnecessary. Having an Uzi is just plain ridiculous as it's only intended use is for killing humans. That's just how I feel.

On the flip side....

I do understand the need for a militia. They are an integral part of a free society. the last defense against invasion and more so against government forces when the military is turned against the people.

I just don't believe military weapons should be kept in a home environment. There are any number of places they can be stored but at the very least - a proper gun locker with a lock is the only alternative. I don't care whether you have kids living in the home or not. I also don't think anyone should be in possession of military weapons unless they are registered with the militia.

As a follow up… The uzi is also locked out.

For the number of firearms, I'm baffled by the small quantity of magazines I'm seeing… Weird.

What kind of amateur keep his Uzi in the bottom drawer. What an idiot!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I don't have a fortress like Kim Dotcom - there is a noticeable shortage of uzis for when the DMCA police bring the battering ram to VideoSift HQ.

As a biker, I have to say the bikers were riding like dicks (we own the road). That said, the car driver was a dick too, he could've killed someone. And why the f'k he pulled over is beyond me, unless, of course, what we didn't see was him jump from his car with an uzi..


I don't see them riding too much like dicks...the first incident the biker with the camera passes the car. The car speeds through in the same lane. That's the car not slowing down and deciding he didn't care. Then the bikers follow him, not really doing anything. The car though keeps swiping at them.

I'm pretty sure a cop pulled them over.

You have no right to say that I can't go get my revolver out and dispatch him with the weapon of my choosing, in so much as your rights are violated.
Do I also have no right to stop you from using a solar-system destroying device to kill the snake?
You seem to think there's some absolute right for people to be able to take risks with other people's lives.
Granted, a revolver isn't all that dangerous in the grand scheme of things, but it's more dangerous than a knife. And unlike a knife, it's not meant to be used as a tool, it's clearly designed as a weapon.
One man with a knife can't really kill 20 unarmed people. One man with an Uzi could do so before people even knew what was happening. With a nuke, it could be millions.
At some point, it's legitimate for law enforcement to be controlling and monitoring the sale of weapons. In this case, I'm just talking about clip sizes.


You ignored the last part of the sentence, it clearly answers this rant. Granted a car isn't that dangerous in the grand scheme of things, but it is more dangerous than a knife. And besides, criminals don't follow laws like this, so your only enforcing laws on the law abiding. The guys who robbed that bank in Cali had military issue clips, which aren't legal to possess, but they had them nonetheless.

Edit, and once again I go back to the drug user analogy. A small time drugy might only ruin his life, but a true addict might ruin the lives of all those around him via theft, and heart ache. I don't see where the ability to kill lots of people vs just one is a moral argument supporting a position against another. I assure you that cow shit has the ability to kill more people than guns, by a lot. If numbers are truly the concern, then get to regulating cow shit, and fast.
