Once again, the liberal news media has imposed it's thoughts on us right after the VA Tech massacre. Do they think for a moment that we,gun owners are just going to march down to our local law enforcement and turn in our guns, because some mentally disturbed person marched around killing innocent people?
Cars kill people,airplanes kill people,drunk drivers kill people,coal mines kill people etc. I seem to remember when Timothy McVeigh killed 169 innocent people. And he never fired a shot! I rest my case.:(
 
Of course not. But if the gun-phobic media can convince people to vote away their 2nd Amendment right then the police can just come and get them. That way you save gas money driving to the station to turn them in. :rolleyes:
 
I remember a story somewhere about british doctors wanting to ban knives with points. Apparently it's ok to slash someone but not stab them. :rolleyes:
 
Not too long ago some wackos tried to ban knives unless you "could prove" you needed them (i.e. - you're a chef or something like that) in the UK. It didn't go through... but just to show you the people in charge still have a similar mindset...

here's a quote from an article in "The Independent" from yesterday...
A five-week nationwide knives amnesty is being launched in the summer in an attempt to drive down numbers of stabbings.

Charles Clarke, the Home Secretary, said: "Tackling knife culture, especially among young people, is paramount to the safety of our communities, and I am determined to reduce the devastation caused by knife crime."

Here's an even funnier one from a couple years ago...

A team from West Middlesex University Hospital said violent crime is on the increase - and kitchen knives are used in as many as half of all stabbings.

They argued many assaults are committed impulsively, prompted by alcohol and drugs, and a kitchen knife often makes an all too available weapon.

The research is published in the British Medical Journal.

The researchers said there was no reason for long pointed knives to be publicly available at all.

They consulted 10 top chefs from around the UK, and found such knives have little practical value in the kitchen.
