Question for our gun enthusiast friends.

Must be some enjoyment you get from shooting and killing.

Yes, it is an enjoyment shooting. It's fun to shoot black powder revolvers. It's fun to consistently put holes in a target 600+ yards away with a 65+ yr. old rifle (and a few others).

I enjoy being out in nature. I enjoy using my hunting skills to put food on my table. I wouldn't say there's "enjoyment" in the killing part though. It's all part of hunting.
 
What if? Or WTF if? LOL!

I love what if's, because what-if's make you think!

OK, so, What if it came down as a challenge to the Supreme Court by some state, and the Supreme Court ruled that the requiring people to have a Driver's License or forcing people to register their vehicles was against the Constitution, so therefore States could no longer require people to have a drivers license or have to register their automobiles with the state? Sounds silly, I know, but what do you think would happen to society as we know it?

I know what it would be- Your 20 mile trip through traffic to work would look like something you saw in a Mad Max movie- That's what!

Do you think it would be safe to drive? Do you think the public would be safer? Do you think you would ever buy a used car again? Do you think car thefts would rise? Do you think the police would have fun trying to resolve crimes, when there is no registration on vehicles? In other words, a bank gets robbed, a witness tells police the getaway car was a 2 door white Toyota Corolla, the driver and the other two bank robbers wore masks.

Or, a 2 door White Corolla just Hit & Run, after running over a 5th grader, and fled the scene, according to a witness- no registration!

How do you think you would feel if drivers licenses or automobile registrations were no longer required to drive any automobile on the street, and your daughter takes the car out to pick up some fast food, and is hit by someone who is drunk, the killer runs away from the scene, she's killed, and NO REGISTRATION on the car to investigate the crime?

Let me tell you what you would do- You would be asking yourself and your state officials why are we just letting anyone who wants to drive drive, and why do we not have a registration process in place? That's what you would do!

And you would be just like any one of these parents who's children were murdered in their classrooms by some asshole who purchased a machine gun from his neighbor, and the shooter turned out to have a mental illness? Would you be mad? Would you be upset? Would you be upset that the
mentally ill person was allowed to buy a gun from his neighbor or even have a gun in the first place? Would you be upset that the neighbor was allowed to just sell his gun to anyone who was willing to buy it?

You bet you would! And if you truly loved your daughter, you would want to see whatever regulations could be put in place that would have deterred him from being able to just sell his gun to just anyone.

I award you no points. And may God have mercy on your soul.

Interesting guns. I imagine that you find reloading them rather fun also!

Like most hunters, you want a quick kill. It is not desirable to let the animal suffer from poor shooting or inadequate weapons.

Gonzomin apparently doesn't understand that killing is necessary to survive, even for vegetarians.

So you think a shooter is going to stop shooting to let you check his gun's "registration" number? Are you really that dense?

Have any of those shooters purchased their guns from someone privately?

Are REALLY asking if guns are not purchased on the black market? That there are no proxy purchases?
