The loudmouths who sent me hate mail seem to think that any control of weaponry is a step too far. Should we then be able to own a bazooka? An M-16? Hell, what about an M-50? The line needs to be drawn what is needed for self-protection and hunting, versus what is just plain absurd. Lindsey – Even amongst Republicans there is no firm agreement.

I am a registered Republican, and although my views are sometimes more moderate, I generally agree more with conservatives. However, this issue just doesn't make sense to me. I don't think guns should be outright banned, but why does everyone need one? I also don't see any harm at all in improving background checks and the like. I don't understand why so many Republicans seem to be against any type of improvement, even when it's not remotely aimed at banning gun ownership. Although to be completely honest, any gun in a household, even just for protection, really makes me nervous. I agree with you.

It is a dumb statement on your part for sure, since I certainly don't want people to be disadvantaged. Why would I or any Republican want to have to fork out welfare and other benefits when you can get off your rear end, study hard, work hard and get a job instead of whining about budget cuts and layoffs?

The infrastructures portion was what we needed to get us going in advancing our country to come into the present but the old conservatives who want to go back to the "simpler times" (ie. slavery, and racial discrimination via lower education). Our country and everyday people need help due to bad financial policy and they are just not getting it. Who is getting it? Big business. God bless America.

Guns wind up in the hands of criminals, we all agree to this. But these guns are purchased a first time and if there is a way to trace the gun's lineage, it may reduce crime or at least give police an extra clue to finding the crook.

I would as a fellow American ( and I say that with out respect for your offensiveness) defend your right to free speech (1st Amendment), if you help defend my right to protect myself and my family (2nd Amendment). It'll all be over before you could dial 911. Good luck out there. I hope to never have to defend myself against a perpetrator with deadly force in my home or outside of my home.
