We’re told we would be safer if approved citizens were the only ones allowed to exercise the right of armed-defense. We’re told that we’d be safer if law abiding people were disarmed in public. We’ve seen that taken to ridiculous extremes where honest gun owners were disarmed in public parking lots, parks, churches, and businesses. We saw criminals and mass murderers attack unarmed victims in those so-called “gun free” zones. What happens to our individual right of armed defense when politicians and businesses infringe on those rights?
We know that honest citizens in the US use a firearm between one-and-two-million times a year to stop an immediate threat of death or great bodily harm. That is a large number, but we can put it into perspective. Honest gun owners defend themselves with a firearm about 150 times for each time a criminal uses a firearm to commit murder. Armed citizens save lives several thousand times a day.

Lt Col Charlie Brown I'll never understand how politicians think that disarming the honest citizen will solve anything. Criminals will always have their weapon. Our weapons is our only defense.

There's roughly 330M people in the U.S. There are an estimated (arguably) 500M firearms in the U.S. There will never be a serious attempt to disarm Americans. Most Americans cannot recall what happened 6 months ago, but all or most remember what happened 246 years ago. I predict that a government that makes an honest attempt to repeal this amendment immediately causes a civil war that makes the 1860's look like a date at Applebee's.

Sorry, a bozo who has to walk around with open carry weapons DOES NOT make me feel safer. Concealed carry, in your home and secured in your vehicle for transport is fine but your right to act like we're still living in the old west slinging guns infringes on my rights too.

MSG Joseph Cristofaro Actually the real problem is that criminals don't care about anyone's rights under any Ammendment.

Florida bill to shield people from feeling 'discomfort' over historic actions by their race,...
A bill backed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis that would prohibit Florida's public schools and private businesses from making people feel "discomfort" or "guilt" based on their race, sex or national origin received first approval Tuesday by the state's Senate Education Committee.

That's BS and I think you know it. 1. The bill never did that and 2. It wasn't passed. 3. why would we want to create curriculum that "espouses, promotes, advances, inculcates, or compels individuals to believe that an individual bears responsibility for, or should be discriminated against or receive adverse treatment because of actions committed in the past by other members of the same race, color, sex or national origin." Do you think that someone who had nothing to do with this nation's dark moments, should be compelled to bear responsibility for those actions? Do you accept responsibility for actions you never took?
So, let me also ask you this? Since this discussion was about guns, I'd like to stay on topic vs the deflection statements about failed FL bills. Should we add a mandatory intro to guns and compel all kids to practice gun safety, and attend range qualification courses? Would this make you feel "comfortable?"
