What do you think would happen if guns were suddenly illegal? The criminals would still have them anyway so obviously the normal, law-abiding citizens would be screwed.
That would be a great argument to use against someone who was suggesting making all guns illegal, i.e. a totally different conversation.

Ok, Aowen did say that he didn't really have anything against shotguns. But the rest of it, including my cute little .38, he would be against. That means he would love it if it was illegal to own anything but a shotgun. So, I think I still have a good argument. Pls correct me if I am wrong, Aowen.

By the way, are you aware of the damage a shotgun would do if a person were shot at a pretty close range with one? I think I would rather take a shot from a .38 because the chance I would still have a face left is definitely better.

And goddamnit, is a damn right that we shoot them assholes that show up threatening our lives and livelyhood. Its called natural selection. Its called the power being in our hands rather than 30 minutes away, and in the hands of some donut munching moron who probably doesn't want to even put their life on the line for yours.

America deserves what it is gonna get.

Owning a gun for self-defense to me indicates you have at least thought enough about someone breaking and doing bad things to you to justify spending a few hundred minimum, which would require a level of fear greater than is really needed, for a scenario that usually does not play out the way people envision.

I think a part of this debate that is missing too is that not all guns are equal. Most people, including myself, don't have a problem if people want to keep a shotgun around for defense. Shotguns can't be concealed and are effective at home defense. They are also more difficult to use to kill massive amounts of people when someone decides to lose their shit. Pistols and assault weapons are the real point of contention, pistols because they are exclusively used to kill people and can be concealed, assault weapons for obvious reasons.
You seem drunk, no offense. What ya drinking?

Lastly prohibition did not work and was probably the most damaging thing to this country in the last 50 years outside of shady corporate lobbyists and government granted monopolies.

A prohibition on guns is going to result in 100x the amount of organized crime and corruption at all levels of society.

You don't need science to cite that shit. Its obvious to the plain dumb stupid as rocks proles who aren't brainwashed.
