Yes that example shows what can happen whent he "good guy" has a weapon also.

so do these examples:

Simple answer is that yes we need "gun control". But you do not do this by simply banning a style of firearm. A modern sport rifle (ar) is not the problem. I do agree that we need to tighten up the following:

Any felon cought with a firearm should be an automatic prison sentence with no parole.
ban 100rd magazines (30 rounds can be used for sport - 100 rounds is overboard and every gun owner knows it)
No gun trades or purchases without a background check - even with private sales it should be a felony if not called in.

dont make it harder for the good guy to get a firearm - make it harder for the BG (badguy)

I'll come at you. No one who knows anything about self-defense with firearms would even CONSIDER firing a warning shot.

Fucking retard.

Well that was harsh. But for real. A warning shot? Did you watch a cop show from the 80s and decide that you know what's up now? Why the hell would you want someone like your wife or daughter, in a situation that is already so serious that they have drawn a gun (i.e. their life is already in danger), to be thinking "should i just shoot at his feet to try to scare him? after all, this creep is someone's son... maybe prison will rehabilitate him!"?

Yea ur right I'm retarded. Most criminals are looking for a gun fight.

In the real world criminals are in general cowards. An outward sign of force can be a deterant for those people who own a firearm for sport and will not take another's life. There are many people who will not go to war or kill another in self defense.

You don't understand the severity of these situations, Kruel.

If you have a day where you need to defend your life/limb/property (or that of a family member), you're already a victim of Murphy's law. You are NOT in a position where you can afford to be betting on "most criminals don't want a gun fight" or "warning shots will usually scare off an attacker" or "gee, I hope I can get down to the basement and find my grandpa's old deer rifle and get it loaded up before my kids get murdered in their sleep."

If someone is unwilling to kill in self defense, then they need a lesson in the value of their own life... not a lesson in how to maybe possibly perhaps not get murdered/mugged/raped/robbed.

I'm not speaking of a ccw type situation. I talking about situations similar to the last post I made linking home invasion type situations were you hear people actively trying to break into your home. Most breakins aren't rape/murder type situations that a warning shot is a possible answer while using a firearm and not taking another's life. Also that was one line of my original post and just a thought while talking about firearms
