Well then you try to balance that out with law enforcement. And enforce laws that are in place.

Mongrel mob, gangsters etc are already illegal, just enforce it more.

It sometimes comes from the ground up too, you or I or the next guy stand up for our communities through legal channels. If that doesn't work, then canvass the people in charge of the people who police your community, if that doesn't work a "stiff word" or a "wee visit" might ;)

Criminals will always have access to illegal firearms, but the laws that the US legislation is looking at is not an anti criminal bill, it is not an anti freedom of arms bill. It is a minimise the risk of legal firearms being used by people for illegal and deadly purposes.

It is a crock though, we all know it, but it's better than nothing.

The real issue though, is legal firearms owners/hunters/enthusiasts etc, are being duped by the ammo and gun sellers, same as mobile phone users, and anyone with spare spendable income. They want your money and will try to make you spend it on their produce. It is all marketing on a large scale. The people who sell you this shit don't give two fucks if it is ammo or beans that you buy, just as long as you buy them. They would sell your kids crack if it made them a profit with low tax overheads, they don't give a shit, it's all about selling product.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, we are all talking about anti/pro gun laws/freedom and so forth. But they are all counting the cash and having a good old laugh at it while they sit on piles of cash.

Every tragedy, is a an advert, every legislation is a peak sale.

What is more disturbing is that this is not a new thing, it has been the salesman's trick since the first human realised that to make shit look good, all you needed to do was to make it look either dangerous or scarce. But people still fall for it..

Here is why I say, others as well, you can't trust our Federal Government to protect you.

Federal prosecutor quits racketeering case, as Texas DA murders spark security fear

The murders of two prosecutors in Kaufman County, Texas, apparently has prompted a federal prosecutor to withdraw from a major racketeering case in Houston, the latest sign that attacks on lawmen are having a chilling effect on the judicial system.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Hileman sent defense attorneys an email Tuesday saying he was withdrawing from the case against the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas due to safety concerns.

To put it damned bluntly...You foolish do-gooders want to pass these stupid dangerous gun laws and then haul ass, when the going gets tough...leaving the rest of us to deal with yer bag of shit. Just fucking gutless. :evil:
