it may seem like my comments are trying to mislead or get of topic, but that is not my intention and i do respect everyones input...from what i have read, some of the first cannons/hand guns were mentioned around 1300 AD...im sure there were plenty of technological devices developed before that, for example,blow darts have been around for "quite a while"...
from my point of view, all of these were invented for survival purposes...if it is hunting with a gun so you can feed your family, great...if it is a gun for self defense, great...if it is knife to cut bread, great...if it is a car to get you there, great..if it is a plane to fly you to Cancun, great...if one certain technology gets in the hands of the ones who want to misuse it, then you will see it propagated by FOX and or the rest of them, maybe, unless driven by bias...

a "firearm is designed for one purpose, to kill" huh?what?...i have many firearms and the last thing i think about is "killing"...if thats all you see then you have blinders on...

if we lose the right to bear arms in this country, then all the rest of the so called freedoms/rights will be lost soon there after, welcome to the Socialist Republic of America...

as a culture we have to start thinking how we can start changing peoples attitudes for the "common good" and personally applying ourselves to start helping others all we can, no more hiding behind our suits and ties, skirts, or otherwise... rather than trying to force people to change( because trying to force them wont work, remember prohibition, anybody have kids? )...

the constitution is there for a reason, uphold it, dont mess with it, and i will continue to have words with any who feel other wise...


cheers!
