Reasons against gun control

These are just spur of the moment things. Anyway, on to the interesting stuff.

10. Guns protect us from the animals. What are the animal control officers for is I can just get out my .22 to shoot the neighbors dog that is eating my chickens? A .357 is a waste of money for something like that. Those are for the neighbors.

9. People can protect themselves from the creeps out there too. Yes, contrary to the liberal thinking, there are people out there that are evil. Guns can protect us from those people.

8. Guns are fun! Why do all these liberals seem intent on stifling the fun others have from things that might me dangerous to their little think inside the box way of life? Is it because they have no fun and do not want others to either?

7. Guns can drive liberals wild. Need I say more?

6. Criminals will still get guns regardless of the laws. They don't care about the laws. Why should we give up a right that criminals will enjoy regardless of what the law says?

5. Guns make us pro-gun people look manly. There is nothing like a BFG to impress the ladies, especially when it can stop a bad dude quite literally in his tracks.

4. Dirty Harry. This guy is awesome! We need more .44's in the world.

3. The U.S. Constitution. Well, it works in the U.S. anyway.

2. Guns also scare liberals. Nothing like saying I have a .44 to one of those scared little liberal girly-men.

1. Guns are a type of instant accountability. Liberals just hate that too, because it has a startling tendency to get their votes shot, or locked up while enabling more conservative votes to survive and indeed prosper.

Crime

Any of you people out there want to take a guess at what causes crime?

I will. Just remember the principle of Occam's Razor, the simplest theory that fits the facts of a problem is the one that should be used.

Anyway, you're probably thinking enough of this scientific gibberish right? Well, quite frankly yes. Just remember Occam's Razor if you read this blog. :-)

Anyhow, my theory for the cause of crime is that criminals simply lack respect for the persons and properties of others.

Yes, it is that simple. You see, if a man steals someone else's car, it's not because he was socially oppressed or some other crock of baloney that people may try to pass off on you. It is not because he was striking out at an oppressor. It is because, he [as a thief] does not respect the right of the other guy to own the car that he earned. Well, he didn't exactly earn the car. He earned the money which he spent on the car. It's pretty much the same thing though.

Does it account for all of the facts? Well, lets look at some of them. Mr. Car Thief dude obviously thought that he had more right to the car than the guy that bought it right? Yes of course. Otherwise he would not have stolen it. In other words, the Mr. Thief Dude did not respect the right or the owner of the car to the car that he had earned. It's just that simple. Teach people to respect the lives and property of others for a crime free U.S. of A.
