More Freedom, More Guns; More Guns, More Freedom

A comparative study of 59 countries finds that "the nations with the highest rates of gun ownerhsip tend to have greater political and civil freedom, greater economic freedom and prosperity, and much less corruption than other nations."

Now do you understand why liberals hate guns?

Thought this would be a good one to pass over to the Tennessean's political forum...

Chechnya, Serbia, Sierra Leone, Liberia, etc. These nations are in utter chaos and have nearly 100% gun ownership.

I'm pro gun ownership but this argument is just not valid. This is cherry picking by citing countries that have system for legal registration of guns and ignoring less organized countries with no list of gun owners.

No, liberals hate indiscriminate gun ownership, because many people who like to own tons of guns are dangerous and unstable.

Think about it this way: If you had a neighbor that continually collected more and more guns, of the motr ot less military variety (automatic weapons, high caliber, etc.), would you get nervous after a while? Sure you would. Why would you get nervous? Because you aren't insane.

And if you want a treat, talk to the guys that think that the second amendment means that civilians should be able to own tank and bombers, etc. You haven't been to the twilight zone until you talk to one of them.

"Gun Free Zone"= "Dead Zone"
There is a reason you have never heard of a shooting at a gun show.
