Exactly....you think the assault weapons ban is adhered to by criminals, or law abiding citizens? Who does it effect? My main purpose for joining in on this thread was to find out peoples reasons for owning guns, and why they feel they need them. It turned into many know-it-all responses and cliche'd banter. I never said I supported the ban, yet it's been brought up quite a few times... talk about talking to a wall. Then I get people who don't even know what a computer virus is questioning my intelligence. Funny. This whole thread has been like masturbating with a cheesegrater... slightly amusing, but mostly painful! "I may be bleeding heart... but at least I have one!" Later.... Blog Clicky -

It is against federal law to purchase a handgun from a state outside the one in which you reside. Therefore, if they are going somewhere else to buy handguns, they're buying them on the black market somewhere. Passing more laws will do nothing to change this.

I really think you swallow every line the anti gunners feed you. Your logic is flawed tho. In your humble, humble opinion... For every study, there is another that will contradict it. Blog Clicky -

Now with some small changes... I shoot guns because I love it. It's beyond freedom. My owning a gun doesn't jeopardize anyone around me. I shoot guns because I can, and I want to. Need and want are two different things. People want to skydive, they don't need to. J J I NEVER MENTIONED THE BAN!!!!!!! I'm talking theoretically. Owning a gun doesn't jeopardize anyone around you? is it a magic gun? A water pistol? Give me proof that the illegal guns in NYC are "stolen". And stolen from where. They are brought in, mainly from VA, SC, NC, GA, and other states w/ lax gun laws. Blog Clicky -

Imagine if they only had rocks and sticks to throw... oh, the humanity.. Yea, without guns, they might have focused more on home made pipe bombs, and actually got them to work! (ala Dillon and Klebold) But their guns worked JUST FINE to kill how many high school kids? Where did they get their guns? They might have focused on pipe bombs? Prove it! Blog Clicky -

why do you jump out of an airplane? I know my reasons... so why do people need guns in general? Nobody has even come close to an answer? And I know my reasons for wanting a firearm. Who are you or the government to say no? And still, no answer..... Easy question.... Why? And don't answer with another question... Well, you didn't answer my question either. You want my reason? Fine- I want one. Now, why can't I have one? Here we go..... I've shot guns my entire life. You name it, I've shot it. My brother is a very highly decorated cop in NJ, and I've played with ALL his toys. Now, Let's look at cause and effect. It's not the constitution-loving, registered gun owner I'm worried about. Where do the criminals get there guns? States with little/no regulation. States where you only need a drivers license to buy a gun. States that opposed a waiting period. These guns are brought to areas where guns are harder to get legally. Most of the illegal guns in NJ and NYC came from the south. It's like a fucked up osmosis. Owning a gun for personal use/protection is fine. Government regulates what kind. Too bad. I feel I have the right to have a Bazooka, and RPG, and a Howitzer in my small urban apartment, but, gee, I can't. Oh well.... If all these illegal guns weren't everywhere, why would we need such protection? What is the exact % of people that are killed with their own guns? Anyone? Pretty high from what I remember. I skydive because I love it. It's beyond freedom. My owning a rig doesn't jeopardize anyone around me. I skydive because I can, and I want to. Need and want are two different things. People want guns, they don't need them. [/early morning rant] Blog Clicky -

So what REALLY is the gun show loophole? Besides no background checks.... And let's keep this as good debate, not condescending... we can all play at that game. I just say... we don't need guns! From my previous post: but why do people need these weapons? To defend themselves from other gun-toting folks? And PLEASE don't quote the 2nd amendment. Blog Clicky -

Easy now... I NEVER said I supported the bill. I am just sick of the rationalizations of pro-gun folks... Again... I NEVER said I supported the bill, but why do people need these weapons? To defend themselves from other gun-toting folks? And PLEASE don't quote the 2nd amendment. Blog Clicky -

or.... Some Texans Boycott Girl Scout Cookies Wed Mar 3, 2:21 PM ET Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo! By ANGELA K. BROWN, Associated Press Writer CRAWFORD, Texas - Some families are boycotting Thin Mints and Do-Si-Dos and other Girl Scout cookies. Troop 7527 is down to just two members after the other girls were withdrawn by their parents. And Brownie Troop 7087 is no more. AP Photo Related Links • Girl Scout Group Severs Ties With Planned Parenthood After Boycott (LifeNews.com) • Program's advocates say boycotters have muddied waters (Waco Tribune) Why are folks in this conservative Texas town where President Bush (news - web sites) has his ranch so mad at the Girl Scout organization? Planned Parenthood (news - web sites) and sex education. The furor was started a few weeks ago by the leader of the anti-abortion group Pro-Life Waco, who sent out e-mails and ran ads on a Christian radio station urging people to boycott Girl Scout cookies because of the "cozy relationship" between the Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood. Parents were upset to learn that the local Girl Scout organization had given a "woman of distinction award" last year to a Planned Parenthood executive. And they were disturbed to find out that the Girl Scout organization has been giving its endorsement for years to a Planned Parenthood sex-ed program in which girls and boys are given literature on homosexuality, masturbation and condoms. "It's not that we're a bunch of activists. We're just a bunch of moms who care about their kids," said Lisa Aguilar, who took her 10-year-old daughter out of her eight-member Girl Scout troop. "For us, it's the morality. Where is Girl Scouts going?" The two troops in Crawford, population 700, decided not to deliver the cookie orders that they had already taken. But cookie sales have skyrocketed this year as many people bought cases just to show their support for the Girl Scouts, said Becky Parker, a troop leader who is the cookie distributor for Waco-area troops. "People thought the boycott was ridiculous and was one man's extremist views," Parker said. While the cookie boycott may have backfired, the furor prompted the parent leaders of the two Crawford troops to quit. "You're telling these girls to raise their fingers up to pledge to honor God and country, and yet you're handing out materials saying homosexuality is OK," said Brownie leader Donna Coody, who disbanded her five-member troop. Because of the uproar, the Bluebonnet Council of Girl Scouts, which oversees troops in the Waco area and 13 other counties, announced last week that it would not be affiliated with Planned Parenthood sex-education programs this year. In an editorial in Friday's Waco Tribune-Herald, Pam Smallwood, the Planned Parenthood of Central Texas executive director who was honored by the Girl Scouts last year, complained that Girl Scouts had thereby demonstrated that "bullying tactics are more effective than an informed democracy." The Waco-area Girl Scout organization has been putting its name and logo on brochures for the Planned Parenthood sex-education programs but said it does not contribute any money and does not send girls to attend. Some 400 to 700 fifth- through ninth-graders attend the half-day Nobody's Fool conference in Waco each July. The program never mentions abortion, according to Planned Parenthood. The youngsters receive a book with chapters on homosexuality and masturbation, as well as illustrations of couples having sex, people examining their naked bodies and a boy putting on a condom. Some Girl Scout mothers called it soft-core porn. "It embarrassed me to look at it with my husband," said parent Shannon Donaldson. Pro-Life Waco director John Pisciotta, an economics professor at Baylor, the world's largest Baptist university, said his call for a cookie boycott "was a way to bring attention to the issue and wasn't really about cookies." The Girl Scouts national organization, which is based in New York and has 2.9 million girl members and 986,000 adult members, takes no position on sex education or abortion and has no national relationship with Planned Parenthood, according to the Bluebonnet Council. The Crawford mothers are forming their own girls organization and will use a Christian-based curriculum. Beth Vivio, director of the Bluebonnett Council, declined to say if parents in any other troops had taken their daughters out. Some parents decided to explain abortion to their girls. Others gave only a vague explanation about the uproar. "Our girls have been through a lot these past three weeks," said Jennifer Smith, who quit as leader of Girl Scout Troop 7527 and removed her daughter. "After I told my 10-year-old daughter that they are supporting some things that are not morally right, she understood." ___ Blog Clicky
