Why The Gun Lobby Is Terrified Of California - from Mother Jones - *5-cent tax on each bullet*

[graham4anything]

131. thanks to precautions after 9-11, OklaCity and other events

and I am someone that in the late 1970s-early 80s was in the WTC every single day.
and every day I drive five minutes, I see the NYC skyline and the WTC missing.

I lived during sandy for 9 days in the dark.
Not once did I ever even think of having a gun at any time.

the old canard about people in situations like that needing a gun to protect from people stealing their goods they hoarded while others may have nothing, sometimes I think
it is the one with the guns who will take from someone else without a gun.

For someone without a gun to want a gun, it means becoming the monster that had the gun one never wanted in the first place.

Seems like those that want guns/bullets for any reason are the first ones that don't want authority to have ways of protecting everyone.

And equating private with federal is a red herring.One has nothing to do with the other.

imho
