Sweet you do not see public service announcements about guns mostly because the media and entertainment are anti gun. They are to scared to talk about guns and sure don't want it pointed out how they use them in movies and tv shows.
According to tv every shooting is with a fully automatic rifle, and people are literally thrown feet into the air by a gunshot. Such bullshit they ploy. They also avoid giving honest accounts of news, such as the Mall shooter being confronted by a LAC and then shooting himself. |

one the biggest proble we have is the mentality that all confrontations need to be solved with a gun. I remember when I was younger those same confrontations being solved with a good ass whipping.
As for gangbanger and drug dealers, when was the last time you heard of a liquor store owner killing someone because they open an other liquor store on their corner. |

Fj I not talking about outlawing anything, I am one of those people who leaves the TV on all day long for background noise and you will see countless public announcement ads about drunk driving, hell there are even a ton of ads about safe sex and the dangers of smoking,you even see ads about safe boating,but not one about responable gun use.
walk out of a bar and get in you car and 9 times out of 10 there's a cop car parked across the street waiting on you. |

On drunks we also stop them by well~~stopping them while in the act. Cell phones are responsible for catching some drunk drivers, but some politicians want to outlaw cell phone use in a car. There are some accidents caused by cell phone use, but is is worth loss of liberty and the resulting increase in drunk drivers. Over all cell phones have made driving safer.

Sweet they do, BUT how do you do that until the irresponsible person commits a crime, or manages to get into the systems radar.
Same goes for drunk drivers, you can't take away or jail a drunk just because he is a drunk until he breaks the law. People die from all kinds of things that could be prevented if we take away liberties. If people are not allowed to swim or boat we could drastically reduce the number of drownings. If all food is sold pre chewed we could eliminate choking. No more soft drinks would lower the risk for ulcers for others. Where would you draw the line? Bloomberg wants to outlaw everything. |

Fj I agree we should not punish law abiding gun owners. But we don't do a very good job of promoting the dangers of guns in the hands of irresponisdle people or people with mental illness or even what it is to be a responable gun owner the way we do with drunk driving.
It would seem to me that a responable law abiding gun owners would want to do everything possable to keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them, if for no other reasons then pride and to protect their right to own one. |

some folks on this board want to discount the numbers of children killed each year by drunk drivers.
Frist off I am in no way anti-gun, But you can not compare DUI with irresponsivle or violent gun use. Why, because the country as a whole is doing something about Drunk driving through puplic awareness and enforcement of the laws that are on the books. Could more be done, of course. My question is, why can't we do the same thing when it comes to guns. |
