This menatlity of I need a gun to protect myself from some unknown assailaint is rubish and fear mongering. Just ask the 6 dead people killed by a co-worker in Henderson , Kentucky yesterday. I bet they are not happy with the supreme courts decision. I am not for banning guns, but they should a hell of lot harder to secure than going down to my local gun show with $300.

As a retired cop I can tell you without a doubt that you are very wrong. I dealt with several people that protected themselves and family with a gun.

Would you like somebody trying to take your Cobra away from you? Lot's of people don't think you should be driving a car like that and there is no constitutional protection for you when it comes to a car.
