BS, I believe your beliefs are the reason the leftist are winning. They will never stop, taking something from someone that did not COMMIT a crime is wrong. This is an extremely slippery slope. No way do I support this, Those that give up freedom for perceived safety deserve neither.Originally Posted by Illini Warrior

and the telltale story behind YOU - be willing to bet there's no crimes that a guy can commit that makes him ineligible for a gun ... in fact a felon coming out of prison should be handed back the gun he used in his crime - RIGHT????
there's people like Pelosi that's sooooo far left it never see lite and then there's people on the flipside right that are likewise in the dark ....
if you think the forefather 2A authors were that f___ing stupid to think criminals, drunks and nutcases should be armed - you must have been the slob sleeping in history class ...
First why are you being a ass?
If someone is to dangerous to get a legal gun, than why in the hell are we letting them out of prison? I don't believe violent people should ever walk free, so that question is stupid. I sure don't believe some guy with a felony because he had a bag of weed should loose his gun rights ever. You seem to act like you think any law is going to stop someone from doing something that is dumb. Laws that forbid the carrying of arms ... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. If you think that statement is wrong you are delusional.

Explain to me how taking his guns protects anyone? Does it remove his ability to harm others? No it doesn't, it is state sponsored theft of his property. If he truly is violent, than he needs to be removed from society anything else is just eyewash and does nothing.

This part of your post at the end calling another Ant a slob is uncalled for in my opinion. Now granted this might be a hot button issue but we're supposed to be better than that. I may not agree with some things but that's okay . Everyone has an opinion called freedom of speech. You may not like it ; but shouldn't we be able to debate in a more respectful manner ?
Talk like this just opens a rift and now more than ever we need not any of this kind of problem.
Just my 2 cents

But I am rethinking that now. The average person will most likely never need an AR in every day life. As long as we show up to work, do the 9-5 thing, go home and kiss little Johnnie on the forehead when we tuck him in, everything will be OK. But then think of what happened during the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. The city went crazy. There were roving gangs of highly armed thugs willing to do anything just to get a new tv, or to raid the liquor store. I fully believe in the fact that one day soon, a disaster of SOME KIND of a Biblical proportion will hit the US. From whom or where, that’s up to speculation, but I feel it’s coming. If the trucks stop delivering to Walmart, I will NEED that AR just to survive to keep what is mine. I prepared, scrimped and saved, put things back for a rainy day, and no one has a right to take them from me. NO ONE. Of course, just the AR will not save me, but it will be in with my tool kit of options and training to help save my wife, myself, and hopefully others.
I may have gotten off track here...but my point is....to be honest I have to think what my point is. If anyone tries to take away my guns, there will be hell to pay...one way or another. Have a good day.

I agree with your rights to your opinion, but for me personally, I feel you are way off base. You are putting words into people’s mouth, and taking this a bit too personal. Let’s just agree to disagree.
Turning in a person to the authorities who is a danger to themselves or others is one thing. Having them in turn take away his guns doesn’t do anything to the situation unless the person is first delt with somehow. I can do a lot of damage without a gun. If that person is given help of some kind and put somewhere (hospital, institution, where ever) than he or she is therefore away from the guns. If that person is then deemed to be fit to re-enter society, it should be decided if that person is reunited with the guns. If they committed no crime, they should then get them back. You should not be considered guilty for having thoughts that disagree with others. But I fear this is the way those leaning to the far left are working towards. Those people like Pelosi that are preaching the dangers of assault rifles and say they don’t want any part to do with them, actually hire people to protect themselves who do carry those guns. Therefore they can benefit form these guns, but we cannot.
