Maybe one day I'll have enough energy to start a thread on a common sense approach to gun control. I know that it is a emotional topic (especially here), but I have heard some things that make sense to me in the real world.
If this fellow would have had more control of his gun the guy who pulled out in front of him would have been dead.

Good. I might even have time to play on here tonight. Did you guys enjoy the rest of your trip out here?
It was a blast, but we were exhausted when we got home! It took me a week to recuperate. I was really bummed that we didn't get to spend more time together, I want to come again with Lana and do it a little more relaxed! LOL! My brother is a drill sergeant, the day that we saw you was the only one that we actually were slow in the morning, but the day before had been brutal with that wind!
That gunman may have been carrying out the will of God on a person who decided one time to many to be inconsiderate.

Unbelievable!! You honestly believe that it could be the will of God for someone to be shot in a situation like this??? Do you also say, "Gee, that woman was mouthy, so it was the will of God for her husband to beat the tar out of her. She was out of line, after all!" ??

Some people have to learn the hard way.
The CRIMINAL is the guy with the gun. If the first driver was in the wrong, which he certainly could have been, then whatever happened to "vengeance is mine, saith the Lord"?? Why do you think it's ok for any person to take control with their own hands?

Hey, it would be the Metro all the way, I am in love with that! I was so sad to come home and have to drive everywhere! But for sure, next time I will be a lot more relaxed. Actually, and don't tell my parents I said this, I fell in love with the area, if I could find gainful employment, I would seriously think of moving that way!
Convicted felons lose more than one constitutional right.
Yes, I realize that and that was not really a part of my original thoughts on gun control. I was just pointing out that it is already not as simple as "we have the right to bear arms...end of story".
