Ban On Semi-Auto Guns - Petition

[ChrisCBX]

Don't forget hands. I mean, people choke other people to death so we should ban hands. Turn 'em in, people!

Knives are already on the list in the UK:

And glass bottles

For those of you who rag on those of us who resist what seem like "reasonable" limits on the right to self-defense, just follow the history of the UK in recent years. You end up with bans on kitchen knives and violent crime skyrockets. Brilliant.

The BBC stories were hilarious! I had always joked with my friends that this was going to happen in the UK. Didn't realize that some people over there were actually contemplating this.

I guess the next thing that will need banned are rocks used in landscaping around pubs. Can't risk drunken pub customers attacking each other with rocks when they realize their Guinness bottles are plastic. LOL

I think its pretty clear that someone is just out to push buttons. Don't let someone who doesn't even live here get to you man.

OH he's not getting to me man. The list was done in humor more then anything else. However, it does have some significance behind it. Mainly to point out, that once you try and ban one thing. You might as well ban them all.

So in a comical sort of way, I'm trying to get him to think a little.

Maybe they should just ban criminals...

Paul Campos had this quote in a recent column of his in the Rocky Mountain News that made me laugh out loud:

We have the highest incarceration rate in the world, and the prison population continues to grow, despite a plunge in crime rates over the past 15 years.

Now, it seems logical to me that if you put criminals in jail, crime rates will drop but to some, they just can't seem to make the connection.

This is right about the point where Donna starts giving me that "don't even think about it" look.....

Though I do have this 390 V8 in my garage and nothing much to do with it.....

This should make most of us happy:

For everyone who supports gun ownership, but doesn't have a CCW permit, I would say: GET ON IT. The more people who actually do something about the right to bear arms, the better off our state will be.

I just signed it.

People who trade liberties for safety's don't deserve either one.

The criminals will always have guns. as long as there is a means and or profit there will always be murders. The only ones that will loose are the ignorant and the law biding citizens that respect the laws of the land.

It will be a sad day when they pry my m4 carbine out of my dead cold clammy hands

i signed but i didn't see anything about semi auto guns as i did see semi auto shotguns... either way, banning of any guns is dumb.. I can respect the banning of fully auto weapons because thats just overkill in any situation unless your in TN which is the Fully Auto Capital of the USA..
