I am curious as to why so many are interested in restricting freedoms?

guns are scary.

Or to put it another way, "WAAAAA I AM AFRAID I WILL BLOW MY FOOT OFF SO I DON'T OWN A GUN AND THAT BIG GUY WITH THE HUNTING RIFLE SCARES ME BECAUSE HE HAZ ONE AN ISN'T AFRAID OF SHOOTING HIS FOOT OFF. I ALSO THINK HUNTING IS BARBARIC, MEAT SHOULD COME FROM THE STORE IN NEAT PACKAGES!!!!!"

I spent half of my last deployment not allowed to carry more than a single knife on me. People get scared and act like children.

To each their own, just don't try to force your opinion on others.

Methinks you misunderstood my post.

I think everyone who is not a criminal should be legally allowed to purchase and maintain such arms as they deem prudent and necessary for personal and home defense, as well as sport and subsistence. I believe that, like Dok Howl said, there should be a class offered in high school covering basic safety, marksmanship and weapons maintenance.

I think people who seek to restrict my freedoms because my freedoms scare them are good candidates for serfdom and should be rounded up and forced to the fields and factories for those that refuse to allow their freedoms taken.

Ah, ok. :)

I personally do not like firearms. But I am trained in their use. I am comfortable around them. And I should be able to get one with a minimum of hassle should I feel I need one.
I think life could be boiled down to this "If I ain't shitting in your yard, don't tell me how to shit"

Oddly enough, that was going to be my first choice for my statement.

It was in self-defense.

(Why do you want to restrict my freedom?)

Am I the only person strongly in favor of gun freedoms who doesn't own one?  (and has no intention of owning one, just to make it clear, it's not just because i am poor)
No, you're not.  I don't own any, but it's only because I haven't gotten around to getting any yet.  I'd like to take a gun safety / maintenance course first.

I can tell that I spend way too much time on facebook, because I searched in vain for a "Like" button after reading this post.
I will answer ANY prayer for $39.95.*

I think it's messed up that my freedom to own fully automatic weapons, RPGs, and small missiles is RESTRICTED!

Shouldn't you be playing WoW in your Mom's basement right now?

Is this where I pretend to be a macho guy and say "I live in your mom's basement and fuck her"?

Or is this where I point out that whining about not being allowed to posses things that you could with a modicum of technical skill you could manufacture on your own and therefore your hyperbolic argument raging against your freedom to own military grade weapons is stupid?

Except of course its just as illegal to make them as buy them, and easier to buy them illegally than to make them that way.

I'm sure the ONLY thing preventing you from showcasing your missile engineering acumen would be the fact you'd get caught with an Iron Man leotard on, -er, rockets in your closet.

I hope you stick around longer than AKK.

To those of us who don't have much in the way of technical skill, how would you go about manufacturing your own RPGs and small missiles?
