It's not the guns
I am a gun owner.
I've never shot anyone, intentionally or otherwise, thank (insert name of your deity here).
I had nothing to do with the geeks in Littleton or Conyers. I didn't even know them.
I have nothing to do with *real* criminals being turned loose to kill again and again.
I bear and claim no responsibility for what an incredibly small percentage of losers do with their guns. Do you feel responsible for child pornographers doing what they do? Of course not; that would be silly.
So, please, in the name of common sense, leave us alone. Stop trying to blame 80,000,000 of us for the actions of a depraved few. Stop trying to make 80,000,000 of us defenseless against criminals.
And please, realize that people have been killing each other without guns since we arrived on the scene. Guns are not the problem; people are.
Respectfully,
