Why would anybody not own a gun?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm a gun owner.
Owning a handgun doesn't make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.
In truth, there is no rational argument for guns in this society. This is no longer a frontier nation in which people hunt their own food. It is a crowded, overwhelmingly urban country in which letting people have access to guns is a continuing disaster.
Unless they're a fugitive or a felon, or adjudicated mentally ill, we're not against them buying guns at all.
There are too many guns in the hands of people that shouldn't have guns. There is too much gun violence in America.
I do not believe in people owning guns. Guns should be owned only by the police and military. I am going to do everything I can to disarm this state.
If somebody wants to kill people, they don't need a gun to do it.
I don't believe gun owners have rights.
There is no reason for anyone in this country, anyone except a police officer or a military person, to buy, to own, to have, to use a handgun... and the only way to do that is to change the Constitution.
Shooting guns is not something I would do in my spare time. I really don't understand why Americans can purchase guns so easily and why they use them for sporting purposes.
