Here's an example of Canada that has stricter gun control. If someone was throwing Molotov cocktails at your house (and at your dogs) and you use a firearm to defend yourself, You still get in trouble and you get your weapons permit revoked and your firearms taken away. This is what will happen if Democrats go forward with gun control after the shooting in Las Vegas. Look how former Jesuit California Governor Jerry Brown and his Sanctuary State Legislature tried to ban high capacity magazines used by terrorists from the San Bernadino shooting but, at the last minute, a State Superior Court Judge thought it was b.s. and they did not enforce the ban that would help criminals who got the weapons from Nevada in this shooting incident.

Getting rid of bump stocks I totally agree with. But look how people try to defend their own property get in trouble doing the right thing. It's liberals like Hillary Clinton, Senator Barbara Boxer/Nancy Pelosi and Governor Moonbeam of Sanctuary State California that will get us in trouble since criminals don't care and they think going to jail is an honor .http://nationalpost.com/news/canada/man-faces-jail-after-protecting-home-from-masked-attackers

LTC (Join to see) - I was talking about SGT Arnold's meme. I am sure that I mentioned the meme when I wrote the statement.

CPT Jack Durish - Jack, I'm glad you thought it was funny. Since we talking about weapons and I happen to find this picture on digits, I thought that it would be funny. I also had her get inside a tank and put on a CVC helmet and Nomex fireproof tanker outfit. My cousin commented, how did you get her into the tank how did you convince her? I said she was fascinated by that tank. My mom is a pacifist and I don't think she's ever shot a weapon or killed anything in her life. Still as a social worker and a very peaceful person, she was not afraid to post for me as a loving mom and she was not afraid to show it to the tank either. I'm trying to find the picture where she's looking through the Gunners main site while they have the video game portion of gunnery added to the tanks Electronics so she could see how it works. I have her at the Gunner station in the lights are on like if the tank is ready for her to push the main gun button and fire the 120mm Smooth Bore. I also have her posing next to me in 2003 at dugway Proving Ground in Utah. We actually had two tanks brought out two hour bass so we could keep up with tanks skills while we were doing physical security. We had a tank platoon, a mortar platoon and a scout platoon from a California Army National Guard tank battalion. Specifically, 2nd battalion 185 armor. I was assigned to COBRA company out of Escondido. This was my first title 32 mobilization prior to go into Iraq and Afghanistan for Homeland Security. My mother came to visit me on my 41st birthday.

CPT Jack Durish - yes, she was also giving communion to the sick and the dying back in 1999. She had a Bible study group that number over a hundred Hispanics at her local church. She was going to Israel and other holy places at the same time. I have to find the picture of her where she looks really mean and she's attacking the camera with an SKS with the bayonet sticking out. Thanks Jack!

Unlike some people the old man did do just enough to stop the threat. Some of the people making comments on the story wanted the gentleman to follow the boy and kill him on the spot; saying that he [had] not learn enough in the CPL/CCL class that the gentleman took. Some people. With the litigious nature of too many people, if the gentleman had [done] what they suggested, it would possibly placed him in legal jeopardy. I think that the gentleman learned the lessons taught in his class; shot for center of mass and stop once the threat is eliminated.

I agree, but with 20/20 hindsight, I would have fired again if I had seen that perp picking his gun up off the floor. If he just ran out the door, let him go. But picking up the gun again --- that would be a renewal of the threat in my book.

There are a limited number of cops in the U.S. The laws have become soft on criminals and created an environment where crooks are not afraid of the cops.

However, they are afraid of citizens with guns. It has been shown time and time again that in areas of less gun control and higher numbers of CCW permits crime is lower. The opposite is true of areas with strict gun control.
