I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT HE HONESTLY BELIEVES THAT SOME LAWS CAN BE PASSED THAT WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR CRIMINALS TO OBTAIN GUNS!!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SOME PEOPLE STILL DON'T REALIZE THAT ALL THAT GUN LAWS EVER DO IS MAKE IT HARDER FOR HONEST PEOPLE TO BE SAFE----- NOT CRIMINALS!!!!

DISARMING AN ENTIRE GROUP OF PEOPLE BECAUSE A FEW MISUSE GUNS MAKES EXACTLY AS MUCH SENSE AS TAKING MOTOR VEHICLES AWAY FROM EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE CHOOSE TO DRIVE WHILE INTOXICATED!!!!

THINKING THAT PASSING GUN LAWS WILL PREVENT CRIMINALS FROM OBTAINING GUNS MAKES EXACTLY AS MUCH SENSE AS THINKING THAT PASSING GUN LAWS WILL PREVENT CRIMINALS FROM OBTAINING KNIVES!!!
