We all talk about baning guns. If this was your wife - daughter - mother would you want her to have a cell phone in her hand or a fucking gun. This world has some seriously fucked up people. Even if she had a gun the chances are she wouldnt have to kill the intruder. A simple warning fire near him would most likely have sent the perp running.

Come at me bro

I'll come at you. No one who knows anything about self-defense with firearms would even CONSIDER firing a warning shot.

Fucking retard.

Criminals love unarmed victims

Now I'm sure if you ask them pretty pretty please and hold hands and sing
"kum bye ya" they'll gladly give up their guns and stop being violent.
As for me, I'll keep my guns and keep me and mine safe

Simple answer is that yes we need "gun control". But you do not do this by simply banning a style of firearm. A modern sport rifle (ar) is not the problem. I do agree that we need to tighten up the following:

Any felon cought with a firearm should be an automatic prison sentence with no parole.
ban 100rd magazines (30 rounds can be used for sport - 100 rounds is overboard and every gun owner knows it)
No gun trades or purchases without a background check - even with private sales it should be a felony if not called in.

dont make it harder for the good guy to get a firearm - make it harder for the BG (badguy)

Well that was harsh. But for real. A warning shot? Did you watch a cop show from the 80s and decide that you know what's up now? Why the hell would you want someone like your wife or daughter, in a situation that is already so serious that they have drawn a gun (i.e. their life is already in danger), to be thinking "should i just shoot at his feet to try to scare him? after all, this creep is someone's son... maybe prison will rehabilitate him!"?

You don't understand the severity of these situations, Kruel.

If you have a day where you need to defend your life/limb/property (or that of a family member), you're already a victim of Murphy's law. You are NOT in a position where you can afford to be betting on "most criminals don't want a gun fight" or "warning shots will usually scare off an attacker" or "gee, I hope I can get down to the basement and find my grandpa's old deer rifle and get it loaded up before my kids get murdered in their sleep."

If someone is unwilling to kill in self defense, then they need a lesson in the value of their own life... not a lesson in how to maybe possibly perhaps not get murdered/mugged/raped/robbed.
