Mainer/Alaskan's Comments

Amazing intellect from "across the pond?.

1. We already had the discussion about what the differences were going to be between the two continents. I recollect, a bit more than 200 years ago. I don't think you want to rehash it, now or ever.

2. You know nothing about firearms, or anyone you self-righteously call a "gun nut". Yet, you come here and about spewing your foolishness as though you were some kind of expert on society, firearms, or law.

3. You display an amazing amount of arrogance, but I don't find that surprising at all.

4. The second amendment is not about hunting, it's about independence. That is also something most of you know nothing about.

5. Where I live, there are few organized police departments. Both places. Alaska requires no permit to carry a firearm, concealed or in the open. People here understand that criminals, thieves, and murders do not care about laws. Laws are to address crimes. When you take a harmless act, having a gun, and elevate it to a crime to prevent crime, you sink to the lowest level of stupidity.

6. If you're happy living where you are at the whim and mercy of any hood who decides he doesn't care about the law, more power to you. Really, that's your right. You do not have a right to extend that to where I live.

7. "Repeal the second amendment"? Sure, go ahead if you can. It won't make a lick of difference. The right preceded the constitution, and the supreme court and the writers of the Bill of Rights said so. So what? An illegal law is no more to be obeyed than an illegal order.

8. There are, read this well and I will write slowly, eighty million firearms owners in the United States. Eighty million people armed and safe, but for the rare exceptions.

9. We own, some debate over the number, between 250 and 750 MILLION firearms.

10. Guns were made to fire a bullet out the end of the barrel. Hammers were built to pound nails. Either can be used to kill people. Only an idiot would bring a hammer to a gun fight. Only a suicidal idiot would bring a knife to a gun fight. I'll take my chances with a gun.

11. I am a former law enforcement officer. Returned to college at 30 to pursue a graduate degree in physical therapy. I'd place my qualifications and intelligence against any of you morons, in any debate anywhere, anytime. And I'd beat you like a drum in front of any audience.

12. Emotional, knee jerk, and irrational arguments might appeal to people who have little self control or brains. It's better for the world that you people don't like or own guns. Leave those of us with some brains and self control alone. We're not like you, obviously.
