3. Oh for all that is holy

Nobody needs to carry a hand gun. Do you have a stick to bash them in the head if you need to defend yourself? Use a stun gun, pepper spray and take a few Tae Kwon Do classes.

I know that argument I just lodged sounds pretty stupid, yet when it comes right down to it, guns in our society are a plague.

Disclosure: I was taught how to use a fire arm. There are people that use hunting to provide meat on the table.

That said, do we need, in society, guns that can be loaded with 100 rounds? Guns don't scare me. Irresponsible handling of guns scares the shit out of me.
