Unless good citizens are allowed to have at least 40 guns on hand, how will criminals get all the guns they need from the glut of guns sloshed out on the street that real men create by clamoring for more and more guns?! Hold it…!

What I mean is…

Americans should be allowed to have as many guns as they believe will satisfy their fearful, monster-under-the-bed needs, because criminal gun runners would run out of guns if all the manufacturers weren’t oversupplying us… That still doesn’t sound right. Ummm…

Give me one more chance…

The right to own many guns is protected by the Constitution, which also allows people to restrict my ability to buy guns on a fear stoked whim, or have guns stolen from my bunker. Geez uh! Again!

What am I saying wrong!!? Shit!

.

Ever notice when an argument for guns is used it is usually meant to scare you for not having a gun, or coerce you to agree that they need a gun to save you? This is a good tactic because fear often works. In Great Britain, they have many fewer guns on a per capita average than us; in contrast the U.S. has 160 times the number of gun deaths, also on a per capita average. Yes, knife attacks are more…

Mostly serious stuff w/ bits of sarcastic fluff. I wish more could be told yet bios have room 4 short & bold. You’ll see less length isn’t my greatest strength.
