D.C.'s Gun Showdown

Submitted by MassGunner4Life, Jan 18, 2008 17:39

Government should stay out of the lives of those who obey the laws and know their rights, Firearms would be the perfect tool in DC' in the legal hands of law abiding folk for their safety, The people who enacted that law 32 years ago should face jail time for their rest of their life, this shouldn't even be an Issue, They created victims of law abiding people who have to live there, They give power to special interest groups like the ACLU the protects groups like NAMBLA that the Democratic party gets some of their support and still do but wont say they do, The ACLU, CAIR, MMM. NAMBLA and NAACP are all extremist groups that call them selves The professional Victims group, One thing this country don't need is a Europeanized version of the U.S. If this offends anyone then you should look up states with Shall Issue gun laws compared to those states that either are Discretionary gun owner states Like NY, NJ and CA or a Non-Issue states like Illinois or Wisconsin. Your Right to carry and own saves lives, don't let some 3rd world fool tell you other wise. This madness has got to stop and punish those who commit crimes not you regular working man or women, Those people have to be punish for that 1976 DC gun law!!!!!!
