Transtic Nerve Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 This is fine I believe :) Anyway I'm 18, and male (a gay male if that means anything lol, Democrat also.) [b]1. do you understand the issue of gun control in the united states?[/b] Yes I do understand it compeltely... well as much as I can understand it. [b]2. do you think that there should be more laws to prevent minors from obtaining and/or using weapons?[/b] More laws? I don't think you can get anymore laws, I think they need to be enforced with harsher punishment. I do believe NO child, untill the age of 18. They are not responcible enough. [b]3. do you think that guns should be outlawed all together?[/b] No. I believe all automatic weapons should be outlawed to the public. Which they technically are, but people can easily make them automatic [b]4. if there were no guns in this world, do you think that it would be more peaceful?[/b] No. It may be even worse. The world is not peacefull because stupid people disagree too much. [b]5. what do you think we should have:[/b] a. stronger laws that require you to have a permit to buy and a lincense to use guns, only if you are of age, (18) Yeah thats pretty much it lol.

Stormbringer Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 I'm 18, male, and I don't really care for the government. Call me... Undecided in my stance. 1. do you understand the issue of gun control in the united states? Yes. I did a project on it a few years ago 2. do you think that there should be more laws to prevent minors from obtaining and/or using weapons? hell yes 3. do you think that guns should be outlawed all together? not necessarily. just the semi/automatic ones 4. if there were no guns in this world, do you think that it would be more peaceful? only to a certain point. there'd be no gunfights anywhere, but there's still plenty of weaponry to be found all over the place. 5. what do you think we should have: a. stronger laws that require you to have a permit to buy and a lincense to use guns, only if you are of age, (18) b. no change c. more caution when it come to storing guns so that minors cannot get a hold of them or d. **make up your own** there's ways to get around A, no change would be stupid not to try, no matter how many precations you take there's still ways around them. So I chose D. There just needs to be stronger penalties/concequences for people that break the gun laws. Glad to be of some help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiroMunkie Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 [SIZE=1]1. do you understand the issue of gun control in the united states? [b]Yes I do, we went over it in my American Government class least week or so.[/b] 2. do you think that there should be more laws to prevent minors from obtaining and/or using weapons? [b]Yes I do, I believe in order to own a firearm of any kind, the person should have a valid reason as to why he/she needs it. For example, if they hunt, then obviously they are going to need something to hunt with. Simply "for protection" though, I think shouldn't be allowed.[/b] 3. do you think that guns should be outlawed all together? [b]No, as I said before, they should only be allowed for certain reasons.[/b] 4. if there were no guns in this world, do you think that it would be more peaceful? [b]No, there would simply be a lower death rate probably, but people who hold up banks or gas station clerk people would just find another something or other to hold the person up with.[/b] 5. what do you think we should have: a. stronger laws that require you to have a permit to buy and a lincense to use guns, only if you are of age, (18) b. no change c. more caution when it come to storing guns so that minors cannot get a hold of them or [b]d.

Dan L Posted December 3, 2001 Share Posted December 3, 2001 18, male I live in the UK 1- I live in the uk and i understand that you have an issue with gun control 2- I think you shouldnt need more laws to prevent minors getting weapons, but I know that even with the toughest laws, there will always be someone who gets away with breaking them. 3- Unfortunately not. Guns are useful safety measures. Psychos are killers. 4- If there were no guns there would only be something else, less dangerous maybe, but not necessarily more peacful. 5- d. Allowing people to get a permit at the age of 18 wont solve the problem. An 18 year old with a gun is as dangerous as a 2 year old or 13 year old with a gun. However much caution is used in storing guns, there is always the odd corrupt employee who can pass them on. Unfortunately the only solution is to find out who the madmen are before they do the damage, which is near impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
