Guns

I have been writing this blog for quite a while and it is possible that some subjects I will touch again. If I do, I apologize.

The second amendment in the United States Constitution that was accepted in 1791 deals with the right to keep and bear arms.

Well, in my opinion this is stupid! This amendment should be repealed or should have been a while ago. In 1791 and for years after that there was lawlesness, there were armed bands in the countrysides and ye, people had to protect their homes, their families and themselves.

But for crying out loud, we are living in the 21st century. Armed bands only appear in the movies. And if someone is trying to protect himself using a weapon against a bad person he gets into more trouble then the culprit he is defending against.

Yet, the NRA is fighting tooth and nail to keep guns in people's possession.I can understand hunting rifles, but is the purpose of any other kind of weapon in a household?

For hunting one does not need a machine gun or any other kind of repeating weapon. Against spacemen these weapons will not work anyway (I didn't want to use the word alien because the meaning could be misunderstood).

I could never understood why people in the south or west like Texas people have to strut around with guns in their belts. Are we living in the Wild West days again?

No matter what the authorities might do the bad elements will always be able to obtain guns. They always did and they always will. But the law abiding populace have no reason to be armed. 

This is again politicking,
