Guns have no place in a civilized society.

Correct me if I'm wrong here atheist, but by the looks of it, we Christians are the ones that are armed, you atheists (being the limp wristed liberals that you are) aren't. (Guns usually stop cannibals, no matter how hungry they are).

Yep and liberals are too dumb to develop advanced armor with their basket weaving degrees, actually Internet forums are perfect for them do they dont get a boot to the head while a gun is held on them so they don't stab me in the kidney lol. Or just use a base ball bat pretty hard to cowardly stick someone in the back who is pummeling you with a bat, and if they are too quick and wiry then just gun them down.

Of course god said vengeance is his so I'm hoping he will take care of it and I can live in peace. Maybe Chicago and new jersey will burn up in a forest fire or all their infrastructure will collapse, they could not pay me enough to go rebuild in Thoes places, or Albuquerque lol. Maybe 3rd world country rates.

LOL. And because liberals are dumb, in the future when talking about gun ownership around liberals, we should always say:

"Guns are bad, don't own one!"

That's funny but good advice since they have likely never fired one before, seriously though where are these cesspools at where Brian lives, I don't know anyone like some people on here in real life.

Certainly ... you are WRONG. There's a shocker. I have no problem whatsoever with shooting anyone who enters my home illegally.

No ... though my dad use to take me out target practicing starting at the age of ten.

We always had guns and rifles in the house. My father kept them hidden in the back on the closet in my parent's bedroom.

Being that we all (kids) KNEW the penalty for messing with the guns without his consent or in his presence, none of us ever bothered them.

Oh ... and all the venison steaks, burgers and jerky was a rather nice perk as well.
