Gun Control Debate - Kenosha, WI

It would be a slippery-slope before our 2nd Amendment was violated further. Most rifles & shotguns can be made into a handgun with a hacksaw in ten minutes.

Yes, but it's the criminals that would be doing that.
Stricter gun laws only hurt responsible, law abiding gun owners.

So then only criminals would have guns? No, thank you.

The 2nd Amendment is vital to all responsible citizens. Responsible for my own actions, responsible for protecting my family, responsible for protecting this country, etc, etc, etc.

Leave the 2nd Amendment rights where they belong - the hands of the people.

When you outlaw guns..only the outlaws will have guns!

Jesus said it best. "When a strongman, well-armed keeps his palace his goods are in peace." Luke 11:21

Passing a gun ban would not only violate the 2nd Amendment, but would only allow criminals the opportunity to possess firearms while law abiding people will not. Numerous large scale cities have passed firearm bans that still maintain high amounts of violent crimes related to firearms. Evidently, the criminals did not get the memo.

With our State Capitol Dictating our 1St, Ammendment rights (Emergancy probable Illegal Bill passed, stripping collective bargaining 3/10/11),I imagine this WOULD be the next issue they will try and DICTATE into existence, NO WAY!!!

By his Bill passed, in a way that strips even you,his support system down the line, to a State rule that robs ALL Wisconsinites of thier inalienable rights to Democracy and Constitutionalism (2nd. Ammendment inc.)by his Dictate alone!? You're right,I'm crying you a river, cause the bright, shiny, red apple you bought, has a big ugly worm in it! You just haven't bit in that far yet. Then what?

I don't blame you for your way of thinking. I blame the TV news and other outlets for continually using the term "stripping wisconsin workers of their collective bargaining RIGHTS". Now you actually believe they are human or civil rights. These aren't rights. Public employees had these "privileges" awarded to them by the state, which was a mistake. Now they have corrected that error just in time to stop the state from going broke because of these abused "priveleges"(I hope).

Rights are not awarded by any state. Rights (like life, liberty, and the pursuit of hapiness) are inherent in each person's diginity as created by the Creator. States can't grant these rights, but states can deny them.

The privilege to collectively bargain for benefits as a group of public employees represented by a union, when they have a monopoly (no competition), and their union funds one of the two parties in power, does not belong in the category of "rights", and should be limited when abused.

banning handguns serves no purpose.

not everyone's a criminal it's a constitutional right

is it 1 of our amendment rights ?so wasn't even a question and when you remove the guns the only people id have guns are the criminals look at the other countries like mexico they don't allow guns and everyone's running around ak 40 seven's

banning any type of gun is not up to any government or government official, whether it be local, state, or federal......bearing firearms is a right that cannot be infringed.

My idea of gun control in be able to hit your target.....!!

Simple, 1st Amendment right....period!

Simple, 2nd Amendment right....period!
