[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1857312, member: 18225"] Generally I agree with you, and I know you have a soft-spot for the 2nd Amendment and gun ownership in general, but, come on now?!!? Personally, I'm neutral about gun-ownership - I don't own any guns and I have enough other hobbies to keep me occupied. If guns are your hobby, excellent. It's not my thing, and it's not my decision - 2nd Amendment, etc. There are other amendments to the Constitution I'm more concerned about. Which militia are you in by the way? (tongue-in-cheek, but not really). The 'good-guys-with-guns' argument doesn't hold weight with me - I'm not sure it's any kind of rational solution, i.e. lets arm everyone everywhere just in case someone else who is armed starts to shoot. I don't have an alternate solution, I just don't like the 'more guns' solution. I'm not going to pretend to supply an answer to the 'mass-shooting' problem, but when a proposal is 'more guns', frankly I'm dubious. There are a lot of excellent qualities about the United States, and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else, however we seem to be very good at cutting off our noses to spite our faces. [/QUOTE]
