Here's a question for you, Conquests. Do you have any idea what the criteria is to purchase a firearm in the state you live in, or just in general? Do you know the difference between single action, double action, semi-automatic, fully automatic, magazine fed, tube fed or anything at ALL about firearms?
The people who want more gun laws are the people who are ignorant about them. Expand your mind.

yes i know all the differences. i know you have to fill out a permit to purchase handguns and you have to fill out a permit to conceal and carry if you want to take your gun to porkys. no, i don't know the specifics. yes, i've shot a 38 special from like 1920 for recreation with a friend. i didn't like it. not that it was scary or anything, but i got no excitment out of it. i don't really see how people get off on that shit. but that's me.
and to clarify, since i always get called names and shit when gun topics come up, i was joking in my first post in this thread. since there seems to be a large percentage of pro-gun people in texas. but i know it's mostly the whole south.
to your last statement. i'm not ig-nant. i just watched ted nugent on donny deutch flap about pro-weapons stuff. I listen to point and counterpoint, i look at both sides of the story and take it all in and guess what? from what i have found is that pro-gun people NEVER look at the other side of the story, they all think they are right by GOD and that "liberals will take my guns away! kill 'em all". and that's why you can't really talk about guns with gun people. see? no matter what i say, you'll skim over it and reply with, "you don't know about guns, you're an idiot".
I'm a democrat, not a liberal. there are alot of things i can find common ground on with repubs. bottom line: i think assault rifles and guns which can easily be converted to full auto should never see the light of a gun store.
i know people who kill others with guns are going to get those things anyway. i just think it shouldn't be possible to buy them.
