this whole thread strikes me as odd. I'm in my early 60s, lived in America all of my life, and I have not ever felt the need to pull a weapon on another human being, EVER.
I'm still trying to figure out if I have somehow managed to live a totally sheltered life
in a utopian Lake Wobegon, and just my little slice of America is safe, or if some of y'all need to get a grip on reality. Whatever is the truth, this thread is pretty discouraging.
No, it's not odd, this is a normal conversation with a relatively sane gun conservative. I haven't owned a gun most of my adult life and I'm 72. The odds of a middle class white person ever needing a gun are remote. Drop down into the barrio and it changes, but not by a whole lot of you're white. Black or Latino? Goes up more. But in the barrio it's gang vs gang, domestic violence, robbery and disputes. If you look at the stats, blacks kill mostly blacks, latinos kill mostly latinos, and whites kill mostly whites. The highest kill per capita is blacks, then latinos, then whites.
