re: #8 teleskiguy
I mentioned downstairs that I live close to a gun range. Fun fact: Said gun range is owned by the town I live in. Which means I can show up for free. It’s a nice gun range too. Trap shooting, a semi-enclosed pistol range, even a facsimile old west town with targets. Yay socialism.
The gun range makes money for the town, non-residents travel from all over to use the facilities. It’s where I shot a fully auto H&K MP5 when I was a teenager.
I am fine with owning guns for sport and if you want to use it to defend your home, I guess that is your good right.
But I don’t think that people should be allowed to tote them about to play “good guy with a gun” in a potential public active shooter setting. That is a recipe for disaster.
