Guns, specifically the kind that we are discussing, have no legitimate purpose. There are no circumstances where you need to have one unless you want to have an ability to go on a mass killing spree. There are only two types of gun owners - ones that went on a killing spree, and ones that are still contemplating it.


Please tell me you're joking. That's just about the most offensive bit of drivel of yours that I've read so far. I happen to own one of those "scary weapons" that you people are so afraid of and I assure you that I have never once contemplated using it for anything illegal. I own it for one reason: To defend my property and my life and the lives of the people I live with. That's a pretty fucking legitimate purpose. If you want to live in shiny happy people land and hope noone tries to take your life or the things you own, that's fine. Best of luck to you. But don't dare try to demean me because I can see reality and choose to be prepared for the worst.
