Drugs are not 'dangerous' just sitting on a table with no-one to consume them. They become a threat when they are handed out to kids on the street.

In a speech by Obama, he discussed how religion (argument also can be applied to science) can say anything it wants but we must place it in a logical and socially applicable context before we apply the rules to society. As with this ideology, scientific beliefs also must be properly re-worded before it can affect society. I oppose you because you seem to forget that science is based entirely on provable facts and is much more reliable than abstract words written in thousand-year old unverifiable books.

Real religions, most which are peaceful and good, when taken upon by average and sane citizens overall improves the conditions of man as they dictate standards of moral judgment.

There is no reason law-abiding citizens need to defend themselves as they are untrained, do not have full knowledge of the law and eventually cause more harm than good by owning such weapons.

The odds are against criminals and even tho gun control may never be complete, it significantly reduces the likelihood of death by firearm by lessening the chances and increasing the difficulty to acquire firearms.

That is plainly an anti-authoritarian, barbaric and paranoid state of society which has no faith in it's democratic and legal system. Civilians don't need to be military trained just-in-case-we-need-to-take-over-the-country. That is more of a problem where such small factions may start gang-based violence than any paranoid delusion of a menacing unjust government.

There is no need for every Bob and Mary to own a gun to ensure a peaceful future. Use your vote, use your rights for a free and peaceful future.

In a worldwide population of billions, many would have lived if opportunities to kill with guns had never arisen.
