"Where you have guns, you often have gangs"

[progunner1957]

I got guns - lemmesee here [rummage, rummage, rummage, look, look]... Huh!! No gangs, though...

A key component of the program is the increased prosecution of gun crimes in federal court instead of state courts. Federal gun crimes carry stiffer penalties.

The major criticism of pro-gunners is that antis care more about banning guns than prosecuting and punishing the criminals. Here it appears that Gonzales' program does exactly what gun owners say they want.

If you'll look again, you'll see that I said "No, I DON'T consider Dianne Feinstein an anti-GunGrabber". I guess "non-GunGrabber" would have been a better term.

I'll bet if she has a permit to carry, she carries, especially when her security people are not around. I'm sure they are armed to the teeth. Who knows what she melted down for the Pope? It was probably some old costume jewelery.

To your knowledge, has anyone ever called her on this? I'd love to know what her response was. It would probably be some excuse citing her notoriety as the reason she needs a gun. These ultra-lib elitist types have lots of double-standards. But then, they never have to walk down a dangerous city street, alone, depending on the proximity of the nearest cop for protection.

I would invite her to take that ride through Camden NJ, with Lautenburg but they would probably convolute what they saw (gangs, prostitutes, drug addicts, and lots of cops not doing anything about it) into a reason for even more gun-laws.

I don't think these people will ever understand that gun laws only affect law abiding people.

I guess it's time to join the NRA.

Thanks for the info. I think we'd better start a new thread for this, before "You Know Who" locks this one down.

In fact, all 3 candidates for governor in Indiana (Libertarian in addition to the big 2) got pro gun marks from GOA during the last election.

Sometimes in very pro-gun areas you will encounter a pro-gun Democrat. In Indiana, a real anti could never be elected, so even the Democrats drop their anti-gun agenda locally. When they run for national office, sometimes their true colors start to show - witness Al Gore, who never would have been elected Senator from Tennessee as the rabid anti-gun activist he later turned out to be.

Also, sometimes, in very anti-gun areas like New York, California, Chicago, etc., you will encounter gun-ban republicans.

In either case, these are anomalies due to local conditions and don't reflect the national party agenda.

Where you have guns

you have chocolate and books on Quantum Field Theory. Not to mention music CDs of the Blue Brothers,Santana,The Doors,Yanni, Jimi, Queen, G&R, Bach and John Philip Sousa.

With every passing day, I like the Republicans more and more.

Where you have congregations of unevolved and unenlightened people, willing to profiteer and oppress others, you will have a resorting to violence to carry out the dark agenda. Firearms are just the latest means in what has been the greatest story ever told. Gangs are the "normal" state of backward humanity, and if they don't operate by physical coercion they operate by brainwashing.

Flies?

where you have guns, you often have gangs.

Where you have flies, you often have garbage. Flies cause garbage!

"Where you have guns, you have gangs." With that logic I can honestly say
"Where you have guns, you have Bibles."
"Where you have guns, you have a loving family."
"Where you have guns, you have law-abiding contributing members of society."


The above has been my, and my extended family's experience.
