I agree that gun control discussion can be tiresome, and go round and round. Really, once we all share our views and opinions, it shouldn't have to be brought up and repeated over and over, especially by those who joined in the previous conversations. Many of us, like myself, don't care to change anyone's opinions, or beat them up for their personal views. I think gun ownership is going to be a hot topic that can't be ignored for the rest of our lifetimes, surely. I am against gun control, and for responsible gun ownership.
I agree with Seabreeze. This is an important issue which could impact all of our futures and those of our kids and grandkids if the 2nd ammendment should ever be repealed.
My dad grew up in a woodland area in Maine where everyone DID own a gun. It wasn't a big deal. Everyone was responsible. No one shot up the town or opened fire in a classroom. The problem these days is nobody really trains young people about gun safety and no one helps troubled people to deal with emotional issues constructively. Killing is not a solution to unpopularity.
And I apologize in advance to anyone who has lost a loved one to gun related death. That's a grief I've been spared.
