Guns are for self defense and hunting, not killing people. You may need to kill someone with one to defend yourselves but saying the killing of humans is their primary purpose is just fueling liberals.

Well, it was to Kill the enemy. In case of self defense, the enemy is the criminal. In the military case, the enemy is the warring nation.

Firearms meant for combat are really only a small slice of the pie. Movies may focus on / glorify that part, but the vast majority of people own guns with no intention of ever having to kill anybody. Comments like that just make gun owners look bad to the general public and give people a reason to think we shouldn't be allowed to own them.

Shit, guys. Guns are cool. I mean, it doesn't matter what it was designed to do. Truckloads of things were designed to be used by the damm Nazis. Doesn't mean they suck.

I like to use my guns to shoot targets. That's all. I like knowing proper stance and combat shooting training, but for experience mainly. If I do something, I like to be good at it and look good doing it.

If necessary, I would use a gun to protect my family's lives but I don't stay up every night with a loaded shotgun pointed at the door, waiting for some dumb fucker to rob me. That's just assinine. I like to be prepared but hope I never require the tools of my preparation. My Mossberg "Cruiser" and a box of shells are in a safe place, and I hope they remain there, the unused shells gathering dust.

I don't share the same mentallity my father does (he doesn't like "assault weapons", as he doesn't like guns built to "kill" that make other guns look bad). He experienced the Clinton ban first hand so of course he has some hard feelings towards "assault rifles" and the like. I just admire the craftsmenship, and enjoy shooting them for fun.

And weren't we discussing nudity in films?

I wouldn't call the moderator and a senior member "sons-of-bitches", and I just saw that he was on and I had sent him a PM earlier. Calm down.
