From FaceBook: interesting perspective.

1. I like this...a lot.

The types of additional regulations listed in that meme are the very sort that this gun owner strongly supports. Targeting irresponsible (or outright criminal) behavior is what will make a difference in lives saved.

6. An original from me as far as I know.

Guns don't kill people, people kill people.
People with guns kill a lot more people than people without guns.

7. There are dumber sayings, but not many

It's generally repeated by those who have a bumper sticker mentality. The sad part is that it has to be debunked in the first place.

8. Well said

I am an admitted part of the "gun culture" I own guns, I like to target shoot, I haven't hunted for a long time now, it lost its appeal as I did what is sometimes referred to as "grew up" I also believe I may someday have need for one in order to protect myself from wild animals, ( I live in the mountains, I also include the human animal in this) I may be at odds with parts of both sides of the gun argument, I believe we have the rights given us in the second amendment, I also believe we need more restrictive background checks in order to realistically stop as much of the gun violence as we can without taking rights away from law abiding citizens who never harm anyone and take ownership and safety seriously... So yes do more complete and thorough background checks , err on the side of safety for the majority and not give in to a loud vocal minority of ignorant idiots that seem to think they have a right to go around intimidating peaceful law abiding citizens with veiled threats of violence ......

11. Well said, and

you have eloquently stated the goals of the majority of gun control proponents.

13. Added to that

I would like to see stricter regs for concealed carry, more training and a more universal requirements state to state...Sometimes a little too easy to get one...

10. That phrase is usually directed at those who support bans on firearms.

While I support the initiatives listed there, the attempted "burn" misses the mark.
