    You do know what you are looking at in that picture right?

    You are looking a WWII relics, old hunting long guns and used and abused starter guns not the type of guns that crimes are comitted with.

    You also realize that those guns were legally owned by people that would ahve never used them for crime, so the city government spent a tom of money and did not prevent one crime

    However; one of the citizens that sold one of those weapons may have been able to use it to prevent a violent crime against themselves.

    So it actually made the city less safe, not more safe?

    Liberals are fools. We should not allow them to vote any longer.
    First we should not prevent anyone from voicing their opnion and voting as long as they are a citizen.

    Next while I disagree with almost each and every progressive and liberal policy, they are brilliant, they have convinced the majority of the populations that proposed compassion with the opposite results is better than results that sound like they are less compasionate.

    The reason that they were able to achive this is because conservatives thought that people actually wanted results.

    I used to think so as well. Then I recalled that we are a republic, not a democracy. What is the result when two wolves and one sheep vote on what is for lunch?

    That is where we are getting today in America. I would immediately remove the franchise from all Americans who do not pay federal income taxes. If we don't take this step, America's days are numbered.
