I just love this space! LOL - It's Assault TYPE weapons that is the subject of this thread!

You know - the only thing I have NEEDED is the love of Jesus Christ. And He has been able to give me hope. The rest, other than love, food and water, clothing, and shelter, are all wants. :-)

At one time I needed Ferrara's guitar, and she allowed me to borrow it, and other than that I'm good to go.

BillD - there are millions of responsible gun owners out there. And it is a sad fact that a couple will abuse it and make life miserable for the rest of us. Nature of the beast I'm thinking. I know you have lived in the city and never had need of a weapon. Good on you Brother. Where I live, due to high unemployment, a large influx of folks from other spaces, and the rate of crime has shot up dramatically. We experience either a drive by shooting, a home invasion robbery, a bank robbery, or other related crimes on a nearly daily basis here. It is only responsible to be armed.

I would never use any of my assault TYPE weapons to stop someone invading my home with harm on their mind. I've a nice little 12 gauge pump shotgun for that. The other rifles would shoot clear through the home and endanger my neighbors. The shotgun is loaded with what will only pass through the walls and stop in the brick siding.

I certainly understand the emotions attached to this - but it's my opinion that no matter what our President elect does - he is going to finaly get us out of Iraq. And I praise Jesus for getting him elected to do that.

Lord bless ya
