Feste, I don't know where you live but Fairfield is a quiet little town.
Try living in a major city where crime is rampant with armed robberies and home
invasions. People have a right to defend themselves. Police can't do it. They
just come and take a report.
Take that to another level. The Jews, as well as the rest of Germany, were
completely disarmed by the Nazis and the Nazis had their way with them. The
last thing a tyrant wants is resistance.The founding fathers of our country
foresaw this and wanted the people armed and dangerous for any tyrant. They
didn't want the people to fear the government, they wanted the government to
fear the people. That is the primary reason for the second amendment.

As far as Iowa is concerned, I remember reading a while back that the gun
laws have been loosened. It used to be that if you wanted a concealed carry
permit, you had to say why you needed it. Now, you just get issued with it, no
questions asked, apparently.
In Fairfield, I doubt that there are many people who carry a concealed weapon.
There is no need for such a thing here. I would like to ask such people what
they are frightened of. I read another article based on some kind of research
that pointed out that if people are in an environment where they know there are
guns, they will be more tensed up and aggressive. I think that is likely among
gun carriers too. They are ready to defend themselves, but in my view that is
more likely to attract aggression from others rather than repel it.
Perhaps the 2nd Amendment served some useful purpose at some point in US
history, but it has outlived its usefulness. I would repeal it and put an end
to the romanticization of guns and gun violence, including the erroneous notion
that you cannot be or feel safe unless you carry a gun.

Sorry Feste, but that's the way thediscussion was coming off, very shallow and
uninformed. At leastsomeone could have posted the what the gun laws are in the
US tomake for a more "informed" opinion. Even the Wikipedia entrywould be
sufficient though folks could look up the legislation foreven more depth.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_law_in_the_United_States
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Firearms_Act
Such shallowness makes the denizens here look like "Eloi". I'vebeen to
Fairfield and know there is a fairly significant part ofthe population that no
longer follows the TMO. They've moved on. Few of those post here.
One of the first things I heard on local talk radio was ajournalist explain the
difference between automatic andsemi-automatic weapons. Also there was some
puzzlement frommilitary folks about how the Orlando gunman was able to kill
50people without reloading clips multiple times giving anopportunity to jump
him. This leads to speculation of a secondgunman and a "staged event". Also
Russ Baker, an investigativereporter, raises some issues about the shooter:

The mainstream media fictionalizes a lot of the news to fulfillthe agenda of
their wealthy owners.

This post reminds me of the bad old days of FFL(actually, not too long ago),
when TMers and people wholive in Fairfield were subjected to daily,
gratuitousattacks on this forum. Completely unnecessary and alsostupid.

SecondAmendment aside, I stillmaintain it is healthy to let the populace own
guns asit tends tothwart any idea of complete takeover by a coup d'etat(which
somewill maintain has already happened in the US and istaking it'stime for
complete takeover with replacement of theConstitution bythe Patriot Act).
However nothing wrong withdisallowing theownership of automatic weapons. Most
folks herethough probablydon't know the difference between an automatic
andsemi-automaticdue to their sheltered lives as TM'ers and living
inremoteFairfield.
