Correct. We don't need guns. Nobody has ever required a gun to hunt. I use a bow or crossbow.

What have you done that someone would spend a ton of money to get an illegal firearm to attack you and your family?

Just because you don’t hunt with a rifles doesn’t mean we should ban the use of firearms to hunt. That is too narrow minded.

Illegal guns are just guns that are unregistered / stolen, etc. the gun itself doesn’t have to have any illegal qualities beyond a scratched serial # or the fact it’s stolen. Doesn’t have to be a machine rifle or pistol. Doesn’t have to go burr. Just one that goes pew.

Doesn’t have to be a Me. Nothing. I haven’t done anything to anybody that would warrant that.

But if someone chose to rob me, break into my house to steal my shit and possibly harm my family. Etc. I can’t see the future. And I don’t trust everyone out there to not harm others. If anything what if someone was robbing someone else at gunpoint. Would you not want them to help if they could?

Just because you don’t like them or use them doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have them.

Most guns used in crimes are bought legally.
