I was merely using the safe sex campaign as an example. Another example would be groups teaching responsible needle use to IV drug users. This also made an impact of disease transfer.<br /> How about another example? Offer training in the schools in responsible gun use the way many schools offer drivers ed? Training in the responsible use of both items would be nothing but a win for everyone.<br /> ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-83589505907088224772015-01-28T19:06:45.078+01:002015-01-28T19:06:45.078+01:00or: "Guns equals sex."or: "Guns equals sex."Jadegoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09219212637582238275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-13681439182281422452015-01-28T19:04:15.717+01:002015-01-28T19:04:15.717+01:00Shorter SSG Gunloon: "The answer to any gun ...Shorter SSG Gunloon: "The answer to any gun violence problem is more guns."Jadegoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09219212637582238275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-58763052300477400572015-01-28T19:02:04.452+01:002015-01-28T19:02:04.452+01:00Illegal means what it means.

Well, lets start with the author's, and yours Mike, that guns do more harm than good. And as the author claims, there are more offensive uses than defensive ones.<br /> The gun control lobby's constant solution is to limit availability and possession of firearms as much as the Constitution allows, and then some. Along with continuing the fantasy that a future SCOTUS decision will free them to do more of the above. Or maybe the much bigger fantasy of repealing the Second Amendment.<br /> However, looking at the recent elections and the expansion of gun rights nationwide last year, these fantasies are a long way off, if they ever happen at all. After all, Miller was the law of the land for about seventy years if memory serves.<br /> The claim that there are more offensive uses of firearms than defensive ones, to me only underscores the need to increase defensive uses. As for the assertion that a large percentage of defensive gun uses are actually illegal, the obvious solution for that is training. <br /> This is starting to come to the forefront in the states which have been proposing bills to implement training in the use of firearms with the overall goal of reducing unintentional injuries. And, as expected, gun control advocates are against such training, not unlike those that were against education in "safe sex" in schools were.<br /> Granted, a lot of these classes want to promote and educate in the area of Second Amendment rights, and safety. But it wouldn't be much of a stretch to include teaching the legal aspects of using a firearm for self defense. ssgmarkcrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480230040370709682noreply@blogger.com
