Our gun-control laws need changing

Date published: 11/2/2008

Our gun-control laws need changing

We need to restrict the sale of guns in Spotsylvania County. Kids are getting guns and using them to injure or kill themselves and others.

Many innocent people die because of guns. We have to put a stop to this. The only people who should have guns are police officers.

We should limit the purchase of guns to one person per family and keep a record on them. Also, handguns and military rifles should be taken off the market completely.

The death toll is going up every year because of guns. We must change the law, or someone else will be injured, or worse.

"Our main agenda is to have all guns banned. We must use whatever means possible. It doesn't matter if you have to distort the facts or even lie. Our task of creating a socialist America can only succeed when those who would resist us have been totally disarmed." Sara Brady, Chairman, Handgun Control, The National Educator, January 1994, Page 3. "We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans ..." Bill Clinton (USA TODAY, 11 March 1993, page 2A)

Patrick doesn't really like facts unless they support his beliefs. Shame on you - you should know this about him by now....

Patrick4hp, glad to see you found a way to insert your "gayness" into a gun control post.......WOW. by the way I am a member of PETA as well: "MEAT IS MURDER!............tastey.........tastey...murder." If Obama wins, I'm maxing out my credit cards on gold and ammunition. I figure in about 6 months (According to Joe Biden), we're gonna need to have both to survive. Good luck waving that rainbow flag, Pat......let me know how that works out.

You actually got it right! Even through your sarcasm you it got it right. Our rights are under attack and you'd be a bigger fool not to see it. The gun control laws, the Patriot Act, McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Act, the list goes on...
