Posted: 3/15/2005 6:57:14 PM | you don't understand, mudbug. sealacamp has a bug up his butt where i'm concerned. this has been going on for a while. at least he's chilled a little with the name-calling...
once again, you don't have to have a gun to be dangerous. in fact, a gun in the hands of someone who is inexperienced can be dangerous to the one holding it. this is in regards to self-defense. | |

Posted: 3/15/2005 7:13:27 PM | once again, sealacamp's not making any sense. what do you want, for somebody to come to your house? you're being ridiculous. if it makes you feel any better, i have been extensively trained in defense, including defense against armed opponents.
no pain - seal always has his knickers in a twist, and he's perpetually grumpy. | |

Posted: 3/15/2005 7:22:46 PM | | btw no pain, what kind of gun are you talking about? i'm having trouble picturing that. i am a really good shot, but it has to be a heavy gun. i can't shoot a .22. can't feel where i'm aiming. prefer a .44 or .357. anything with some weight to it. | |

Posted: 3/15/2005 7:26:18 PM | it's a russian import
It's the latest version in the IZH-94 combo lineup. As sort of a backyard "garden gun" for pest control, it would be ideal. And, come to think of it, the little hammerless rifle/shotgun would be a pretty good small-game gun as well. <-i found this on the website.

Posted: 3/16/2005 12:25:45 AM | No guns here but I've got 3 attack/guard kitties. MUHAHAHAHAA! 
Seriously, the last residence we were at the maintenance man went and told my landlord that the cats were attacking the neighboring dogs. LIE! Those dogs were 'at large' and had come into my front yard and yep.. my cats ganged up on them. Yes, they are indeed strange cats and very territorial. I don't think they'd attack an intruder though but more than likely roll over on their back and wait to be petted.
I saw that one person on here has 37 registered guns. Are you a collector??? | |

sooooooooo very true... ready to jump on you without any real provocation when instead they could be civil about it. *sigh*
Anyways.. mudbug, do you own a gun? I think a derringer would be groovy to own. | |

Maybe, maybe not, that would depend on who you are or are not as the case may be.
If you were put into a room with 100 people and said nothing not all of them would like you or dislike you and everyone of them would have a different opinion of you. | |

VIN SUPRYNOWICZ: 'The unlimited power of the sword'
http://www.reviewjournal.com/columnists/suprynowicz.html
A couple of loyal readers asked me, in response to my recent evisceration of the discredited "militia clause" argument, "But Vin, do you think the Founders would have written the Second Amendment that way if they'd known we'd have Uzis"?
Leaving aside the fact that it takes extraordinary dedication and commitment (and loot) for a "civilian" of average means to legally acquire a fully automatic Israeli machine pistol in America today, the answer is, "Yes."
The Founders had every opportunity to add "except for bombs, mortars, artillery and other devices that can kill more than one person at a time" -- all of which were well-known by 1787. They did not. Quite to the contrary, Tench Coxe, noted federalist and friend of James Madison, wrote in defense of the proposed Constitution, in the Pennsylvania Gazette of Feb. 20, 1788: "Their swords, and every other terrible instrument of the soldier, are the birth right of an American. ... The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or the state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people."
Note "unlimited." Note "every terrible instrument."
Under the form of government that we're told Americans still enjoy, the government can exercise only those powers that are delegated to it by the people. You cannot delegate a right or power that you do not already possess. Therefore, if members of the U.S. Army have legitimate authority to "keep and bear" Uzis and nuclear weapons, they can only have gotten that right from the individual Americans who delegated it to them.
It doesn't matter whether you "think this is a good idea." If you want to contend we now have a form of government in which our rulers start with all rights and powers, and allow to the peasantry only those lesser included liberties as they see fit, say so out loud now, please. And tell me when the original Constitution was voided, and by what legal process.
Nor do we usually or necessarily abdicate a right when we delegate it: We delegate to police the duty to chase down fleeing felons, but each citizen retains the right to go ahead and do this himself if circumstances dictate.
Similarly, the Second and 14th amendments guarantee that we have not given up our private, individual right to keep and bear howitzers and really big machine guns just because we have also delegated this right to the Army.
Of particular interest is the fact that several of my questioners work in the newspaper business. How would they respond, I wonder, to the proposition that the First Amendment protects only the freedom to use old-fashioned hand presses -- that the Founders can't possibly have meant to authorize unrestricted use of today's far more dangerous, high-speed electrical presses, with their ability to spread lies and seditious, anti-government propaganda hundreds of times faster than Ben Franklin or James Madison could ever have imagined?

Posted: 7/12/2006 4:58:22 AM | I live in the states and have guns at home.
It started out being for protection decades ago.....and then started to like
guns in general after learning about different ones and wanted to
have some different types.
Now have a bf and he also has guns... his started mainly
because he is a hunter. His father is also into guns and buys/ sells
antique guns.
So between us we have over 50 guns... all types from shotguns to revolvers..
some newer guns and some several hundred years old.
( very valuable collectors items)
He has a large fireproof gun safe that weighs about 1,000 pounds empty...
(gun safes are a good idea)
where he keeps all but one gun that he uses for home protection...
and I will keep all my guns in there too but one to be used for home protection.
We are both marksman and licensed to carry concealed handguns.
We are both non novice with guns and very responsible gun owners.
I would have no issues with shooting anyone who broke into my home..... being the
victim of violent crime in the past.. the legal system is flawed and
anyone that thinks about ever breaking into my home is going to end up
deader than dead.
Just remember guns dont kill people, people kill people. A gun has no brain or
mind... it is just a tool and can be used or misused.. like a car or anything else. | |

Posted: 7/22/2006 6:20:21 PM | | I don't and never want one in my home. Too risky. Doesn't matter how well it was kept locked up.. I mean, if you want a gun for security reasons, you'll never get to it if you keep it locked up or stored away! And what if your kid finds it and play with it and kill herself/someone else by accident? Besides, I want guns off the streets, why would I have one in my home? | |
