Has nothing to do with guns. We could give those nations all of our weapons and their violent crime rate would go unchanged. It is because of liberal policies that smart citizens arm themselves for protection. Additionally, if you compare the number of robberies, muggings, and other violent crimes against law abiding citizens in a state that gives citizens the RIGHT to carry concealed weapons you will see their numbers are in the cellar when compared to severely restricted states.

National murder rate around 25/100,000 or 250/million. Less than 100 high level government employees involved in Fast and Furious, accounted for 200 + deaths. 2 per person. Who would you rather have have the guns?

Yah- you can say all day, "you should have taken the time too, because I'm right and you missed mine." The fact is that all most every thing I've read here is derogatory in one way or another. A bunch of argueing over a sign posted in some guys lawn- "who cares!" Really- who cares, if that is how he feels/photoshop or not, than let him feel that way. If this is how all of you feel- than it's your choice. Want to prove you're right over some one else by slandering and insulting others, your choice. If there where better ways to resolve difference in opinion it's been lost here today. All of these beliefes and insults and I would rob you or I would shoot you, it is merely a way for everyone to feel better about thier insicurities. "I would blow your brains out" - "The amendments" , don't be rediculous! What do you know about the use of weapons, they are meant to protect the people you love, not to hurt people. All of these postings have absolutely know life or love behind them, just excuses and hateful meanings. I don't care if you talk about amendments, but don't talk about amendments and then bash someone in the same exect statement or your following statement, you have know idea what our amendments stand for in that case. And don't write about being all high and mighty super trooper and tell everyone what the purpose for a weapon is. A weapon- is a means to further your purpose, it's a way to tip the scales or even them out- a weapon should never be used to kill or to hurt, but to protect, to protect the people in our lives that we love, to protect justice and if we have the power to harness our own strength than we should use it to protect the weaker people who do not! I don't care if you like what I have had to say- I'm not saying it to be heard or understood or liked, I don't care if you agree with me- I don't care if you ever change your ways of thinking, but there are still heros out there- there are still good guys. Stop being so judgemental of people, let them live thier lives the way they want to- some people will never find that peace, some will take a lifetime to find it, some people find it early- just do what you can to make the people around you happy, work hard, believe in yourself, believe in your friends, and never give up! : ) I didn’t even bother to read all of these rediculous posts.

The great melting-pot has become too diluted. Diversity can be a good thing, but like anything else, can be harmfull in excess. When members of a group share little or nothing in common, then they cease to be united. "United we stand, Divided we fall." The posters here, are clearly divided.

Any public official that is afraid of being surrounded by armed constituents is a public official that the constituents should be afraid of.

Clearly. The edges are too clear and the sign is perpendicular to the "camera" instead of parallel to that sidewalk which is so neatly edged. Look at where the signposts are stuck in the ground. It's a fake, people! It's a joke to make people laugh, not divide everyone with all these arguments! For all the arguments here, you’re all missing the point that it was PHOTOSHOPPED. Clearly.

If a thief breaks into your house, your odds of catching the thief or getting any of your stuff back are pretty close to zero. Having or not having guns makes no difference in 99% of theft cases. What would help is to throw out the rights of a thief that is in the act of breaking into your house or stealing your stuff. It is ridiculous that if you put a bear trap in your living room and a thief breaks in and steps in it, that you can be charged. Somehow, we have become a society that protects the rights of the criminals more than the victims. #87

He's a great guy, and I have no problem with him having a gun to protect himself. He wasn't home at the time. They got past his alarm, broke into his safes(2- gun safes and a security safe)and made off with enough firepower to supply a small army. The bad guys are well armed now. What kind of guns should I buy to protect myself from the shotguns ,rifles, semi-automatic handguns and AR-15s? Should I keep them loaded and under my pillow? I'll check back on your comments when I get the nerve to come out of my bomb shelter. 9 My neighbors house was broken into about 2-years ago.
