We used to have neighbors who took out their guns and shot each other
when they had family feuds. Most of them ended up in the ER with
treatable wounds. A couple were killed. Doesn't make us feel safe to
have any neighbors like that whether we have our own guns/rifles
ourselves. Stray bullets can hit anything or anybody. Another neighbor
used a marker in the neighbor's yard behind his house for target
practice. There's a bar down the road where gunfights and deaths were
common, and widely known, until it closed last year.
That's what happens when firearms laws are so lax that stupid people
have too many guns. Probably bought them in Virginia. Probably got to VA
in stolen and/or unlicensed cars.
This thread ignores that most gun murders are committed by family
members and acquaintances. Others die in the cross-fire. I don't deny
the second amendment, but toting guns mostly just generates false
security.
Thank you,
