[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 799546, member: 1132"] You sir, are neither prepared nor are you capable of defending your family in the event of an armed criminal assault. I would say that you willingly abdicate your responsibility to protect your family. You can bury your head in the sand and rely on the likelihood of not becoming a crime statistic, but when it comes to ensuring the safety of your family from violence, you fail. As a gun owner, "society" as you call it views you as weak. They realize that if they can get more so called gun owners to abdicate their rights, they can use you as example against the rest of us. Personally, I consider myself a full fledged member of this American society. I've fought for it and live in it. So you'll kindly excuse me when I take a moment to educate others as to it's origins and purpose. There are quite a few members on this forum that take an opposing view on many topics. I actually enjoy jousting with them and exchanging the occasional barb. I think it adds flavor to the discussions. While I might count myself somewhat conservative, I don't care to always hear the same views over and over. Preaching to the choir gets old after a while. But I can honestly say that you're the first person to come on this board with whom I can find no common bond. You're only interested in your SMLE for pretend war games, with no thought as to the freedoms that our troops have fought and died for. Unlike the UK, we weren't fighting WW-I and WW-II for our survival. We fought on principle! We fought knowing that tyranny and oppression are despicable traits, while free from the yoke of said evil ourselves. These things are not national views, but deeply held personal beliefs that extend to evil and tyranny on an individual scale. So your failure to understand why we fight for the right to own AR-15's and other "automatic firearms or even semi-autos" may not be a narrowly held view, but it's contemptible nonetheless. I've no use for your viewpoints on gun ownership. You'll have the distinction of being the first person to be put on my ignore list. I hope you fare well here in America. I also hope that you and your family never have to toil under the yoke of tyranny and oppression, nor fall prey to criminals. Despite the fact that you'll have done nothing to prevent these things from happening yourself. So enjoy designing your video games and playing war fantasy, safe in the knowledge that some of us are willing to do far more on your behalf, whether you ask for it or not. :patriot: [/QUOTE]
