Sarcasm - 11.11.2009, 11:24 PM

James,
You know I was referring to Micheal Bloomberg's assertion that the guns sold in Virginia at gun shows are causing the crime in NYC. He even sent someone to The Commonwealth to talk about changing our laws to make it harder to buy guns.
I was just being sarcastic, which doesn't do well on line so sorry I wasn't more specific.

And you hit the nail on the head. You can ban guns from the law abiding people and 1) criminals will still have them, you can ask the Brits. 2) people will find other ways to do each other in.

I am always confused by gun control people, they always know the stats on how many people are hurt/killed by gun violence, but they never know how many of those guns were illegally obtained or how many people are saved by legally owning and using a gun to defend themselves. Brock Lessnar the UFC Heavy Weight Champ is no match for a 90 pound woman that has and can use a Glock 9mm.

It is also surprising that if someone uses a gun to commit a crime they want to restrict guns, but if a person uses a hammer or screw driver (both of which are common tools for people that perform home invasions) they don't feel the same way. A gun is a tool, nothing more,nothing less and with all tools if you use them wrong or carelessly someone can get hurt or killed.

And yes people will and have always found new ways to inflict harm, in fact the yo-yo was originally a primitive hunting weapon. The hunters would sit up in a tree and try to drop what is essentially a big yo-yo (12-13lbs. I think was the weight I read they used) on there pray and if they missed they could simply pull the yo-yo back up to their position.
