Your last sentence buys into the fiction that the anti-gun agenda has set up.

A single trigger press firing multiple rounds -- this has been a NON-issue for many decades. There are NONE of these on the open market. NONE have been used in any shootings you may have heard about. The few that do exist are licensed to collectors, at a hefty price.

It's sad to see "leaders" and news people yammering on about this, when they clearly do not know what they are talking about. Or, worse, cynically misinforming the gullible.

The semi-automatic action has been around since before 1911. One round fired per trigger pull. This is what The Agenda really wants to eliminate. First. It's the most effective action for personal defense, and home defense (and is the most popular for hunting and target shooting), especially if intruders have teamed up, as they often do. One round fired per trigger pull. This is what The Agenda really wants to eliminate. First.

Criminals will always have access to illegal guns. They're criminals. When seconds count, law enforcement is only minutes away.

Is it time to discuss gun control?? {nm} Buy BONDS 21 Oct 03, 15:39

I think you'll find that a car was the weapon; where are the calls for car control? {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 03, 15:44

Already have it. Driving is a privilege, not a right and licensed in all states. Big difference. {nm} BSmurf Oct 03, 16:00

All of the licensing and control, and yet, millions of people a year are killed with cars. It would seem that we need MORE car control. edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 03, 16:08

[millions, probably erroneous; you get the point] {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 03, 16:09

cars have a utility independent of the risk. the only purpose of a gun is to kill or cause grievous bodily harm {nm} charlie Oct 03, 16:10

I can't argue with you. You have your red herring, and are happy with it. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 03, 16:19

cars aren't used for anything but killing? what else can you use a gun for?? {nm} charlie Oct 03, 16:46

Gun collecting, like car collecting- although I imagine both are small subsets of overall ownership. Also, sport. Shooting clay pigeons Paul2k Oct 03, 17:11

Clearly we need background checks and a 5 day waiting period before anyone buys a car. {nm} Bubba_Fett Oct 03, 17:34

I use my guns for personal safety. {nm} RazorHawk Oct 03, 17:39

When there are grievous car tragedies, there are calls for appropriate controls, as far as I recall. Several times when an elderly person Paul2k Oct 03, 17:02

Can't we agree that responsible gun ownership with sensible regulation (of the gun owner, the gun itself, and the sale/manufacture of guns) Paul2k Oct 03, 17:16

Absolutely, as on outsider though it seems that the vocal groups are against any kind of regulation srrichardson Oct 04, 03:35

More like, his experience of living in the UK has shown him that strict gun laws leads to fewer gun deaths and fewer crimes involving guns. {nm} RogerMore Oct 04, 14:10

That depends...is gun ownership the cause of this incident or can it be related to some socio-economical-mental-personal factor. - or both? {nm} PVL Admin Oct 03, 17:51
