Jeff Goldman.. “No civilized society should allow individual citizens to own guns”? Really!? You must be out of your mind. Use your fricken head to read factual statistics and logical presentations of thought (not just emotionally-charged, carefully chosen exceptions to the norm) and think carefully through these issues instead of just devouring the over-simplified and illogical BS that continuously streams your way from the Socialists.

To those of you who agree with me but condemn me for writing an inflammatory, emotional reply devoid of facts and substance…I apologize. Just had to tell (Goldman) what I thought of him.

We in South Africa have just gone through a similar attempt at ridding legal responsible gun owners of their arms by means of a very difficult process of renewals of our previously legally registered arms. Only ONE self defense weapon is now allowed with a max of 200 rounds on your premises per calibre of weapon. A total of 4 weapons are allowed unless you are a dedicated hunter, collector, private security force and have gone through an expensie and long proficiency process for both hand and long guns. No matter how you look at it, our new gun laws, however saintly and well intentioned are a step on the road of the socialist government here trying to prevent us from defending/arming ourselves.

I won’t bore you with too much detail, but we have an extremely violent society, who use AK’s, stolen weapons (largely from police and army stores or stations), and smuggled weapons from over our borders. We are under attack and our police and courts are innefectual and corrupt. Criminals have no fear of being caught and if by some miracle they are, have no fear of being hung, drawn and quartered as the Death Penalty was scrapped some years ago.

When a politician has a birthday ,or is elected, he frees hundreds of so called petty criminals from our overcrowded jails (no doubt to thank them for voting…yes criminals here have not had their voting rights removed), and often hardened criminals, murderers, rapists are released by accident!

I for one will do whatever it takes to remain armed, legally, and give my family and I at least a fighting chance.

This is a very well written piece. And it disturbs me that much more that women played a key role in this law being passed, when the women of their nation, much like ours, could actually play a definitive role to the contrary. Women, learn how to safely use a firearm in self-defense and learn the U.S. Constitution, PLEASE. To see more on this topic: http://wwww.womenofcaliber.wordpress.com

Shooting is a hobby that relaxes me; here is a quote that I like.
“A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity.” – Sigmund Freud
The fact of the matter is that gun bans do not work. Period. It only emboldens criminals that obtain guns illegally smuggled from nations who broke the very treaty they signed to keep international gun trades at bay. A citizen without a weapon makes for a very happy criminal. That criminal can rob and rape without the worry of being shot or stabbed in the process. However, a lady yielding a .40 caliber Glock tends to make a potential rapist back off. The very presences of a firearm in some cases are enough to actually prevent a crime from happening. Would a robber be more afraid of a homeowner with a 12-gauge shotgun full of buckshot or more afraid of a homeowner holding a telephone dialing 911? On average it takes about 15 minutes or longer for a police officer to arrive at a home after an emergency call.45 minutes where I live That’s enough time for the criminal to have raped, robbed, and killed the person inside. However, if the person inside fires off a couple dozen rounds of 9mm shells, the criminal is guaranteed to be either full of holes or far away scared and hiding. Don’t tell me that gun bans are good in making crime decrease because that’s the biggest lie ever told. Do you want to be able to protect yourself or your family in your own home, on your own private property? I suggest being very wary of whom you choose to put in power in?” fear the government that fears the armed citizen”, besides look at the statistics on gun ownership in Switzerland, where every household is required to have a firearm of some kind in the house as well as someone who knows how it operate it safely and responsibly
