    The worst part about it all is how uninformed and misinformed the mainstream media is on firearms and their function. I've seen some of
    the worst computer animations of firearms functioning on the news. For example, one animation showing the complete bullet, cartridge and all,flying out the barrel.

    That is how they worked on Looney-Tunes cartoons, too. The media often
    does little research into hot-button issues. They know all they have to do
    is mention them to get an audience.

    I just thought of something I should have thought of before...

    When someone mentions people driving on sidewalks, I should
    ask why someone would do that? Doesn't that mean they are
    wanting to cause havoc, and it's NOT just because they
    don't have a license?

    For the majority of Americans, common-sense also suggests that to own
    a
    firearm one should be properly trained, and licensed, similar to how
    one
    gets a license to drive a car.

    This. I have no general problem with guns, but I don't see why you
    shouldn't
    need to have a license, registration, and maybe even insurance in the
    same
    way that you would a car. We make people do that to own a car so that we know that they have at least a marginal idea of how to operate it, and
    won't
    go driving on sidewalks mowing people down. In the same vein, I don't
    see
    why you shouldn't be properly trained and licensed to use any kind of a
    gun
    as well. Cos I'd much rather you understand how it works, than just be
    some
    schmo that walked off the street and bought a rifle from Wal-Mart with nothing except "guns are cool" as background.

    The problem would be that criminals and killers would not bother to do
    any of that and as usual, the only ones that suffer and pay the "ginormous" fees for it are the legal, law-abiding citizens.

    there's a lot of youtube videos of black kids driving crazy, swerving and then driving on sidewalks. because that's a cool thing to do.
