    CARS???????

    More people are injured falling down stairs than in any other home accident.

    Lets get started banning stairs too!

    How have guns been treated?

    Last I checked there has been expansions to gun rights in recent years.

    The media does not write law.

    Guns will never be banned in the United States. Won't happen without a civil war

    If we blink again, we'll miss the fact that the war has started.

    Fear is easier to report than facts, draws more viewers and reaction.

    I actually thought about buying an AK but come to realize my money would be better being spent on something constructive in the shop.

    Part of me is starting to wonder if the gun companies aren't helping fan the flames the media started with this whole gun control scare (or at the very least doing nothing to oppose such talk)? No one stands to profit more than them anytime a liberal opens their mouth about restricting gun rights. Record levels of sales and ammo production ramped up to such record levels that it is actually affordable again (besides .22)...
