The right to bear arms

There have been many shootings in USA by individuals of all ages, who appear to suddenly go on the rampage in shopping centres and take lives. Buffalo is latest, 10 people dead. I do believe that there is too much freedom to carry arms and should be tighter control. Perhaps individuals should have to go on an assessment course before permission to purchase.

We used to have a very strict law or rules regarding purchasing a gun C. I have two licensed gun. We used to live in our ten acres land and robbery was rampant specially if your neighbors are far away. We felt good having it. Thank God we never had to use it.

Once you have gun freedom, then it leads to most people obtaining them so as to offer protection. I suppose I would do the same. Trouble is it becomes like the wild west. To suddenly change things now would be difficult. Too many weapons in circulation. The size of a country is important. A weapon maybe valuable against animals when outside a city.

You might want to research in what Jurisdictions and under what Circumstances those Mass-shooting occur!
To liken any of those situations to a Wild West that has only existed in the Movies is more than ludicrous!

I agree!
Here, in Spain, you do need to go a psychologist.

Same applies for potentially dangerous dogs.

I had to do a test before getting a licence for my rottweiler.

I have no qualms of enforcing a tighter restrictions imposed on the purchase of a weapon Dan. I support that. Yes going to a psychological evaluation is a good idea. Determining one's sanity as a precautions to prevent unnecessary use of such weapons.

That's why I am a vegetarian.

Not only don't I want blood on my hands, but I don't ingest it either.

I'm not big on teens owning assault rifles. In fact I think it's a bad idea.

I think the right to own guns goes beyond the right to protect ourselves from whoever and whatever. I use guns to hunt, bowl, bust up clay birds, make precision holes in paper etc.

Guns as long as included in your license to carry. Knives yes. But arrow? I'm not sure.
