How does taking guns from law abiding citizens help with gun violence being that criminals will not follow “gun laws” regardless. Wouldn’t this leave innocent people defenseless?
That there are a bunch of sick lunatics that seek to oppress people because they fear them is something firearm owners need to learn to deal with. When organisations with such agendas come along and threaten not only your safety but that of every citizen it is the duty of those who see them for what they are to stop them spreading their poisonous lies that infect those who are to lazy to think for themselves.Disarming citizens can only aid criminals giving them victims that come with a government backed guarantee of being unarmed. What more could any criminal ask for. It would be insane to think criminals would not take advantage.The whole theory of gun control is based on a complete lie. It is gun controls claim that guns one of billions of objects on this earth is the only object capable of influencing and controlling people making them commit crimes. You truly have to be mentally retarded and intellectually stunted to believe such rubbish. Gun control is a lie from beginning to end.

Is it common among conservatives to believe that we need even more guns to stop gun violence, or is this just a case of a very loud minority?
What “conservatives” believe (and I suppose I am one, although the term demands definition for conversational precision) is that in the United States the Constitution plainly and unambiguously gives every eligible citizen the right to own and bear arms. Further, we believe that eligibility restrictions, when imposed, should be precisely written, carefully thought through and tightly limited in scope, so as not to unduly infringe upon that constitutionally guaranteed right.Most particularly, we believe those laws, where they exist, should be enforced.Your question is in fact miscast. It is not a matter of “more guns being needed to stop gun violence.” Rather it is a matter of needing the government to enforce the constitution-conforming laws where they exist, if reduction in gun crime is your actual goal.In point of fact, responsible gun ownership, including especially concealed carry by law abiding citizens, clearly and demonstrably reduces overall gun violence. This may be counter-intuitive and hard to grasp for many of our friends on the Left, but any fair minded analysis of the published facts regarding fatal shootings involving CCW guns proves this over and over. Responsible citizens trained in gun use are a DETERRENT to random gun crime. Grabbing guns from that cohort of a city’s population is not only unconstitutional, it is dangerously moronic—-and calculated to INCREASE gun fatalities, not decrease them. The historical facts around the country bear this out.Meanwhile, thousands of individuals with criminal records in Chicago (to cite one example) are found to possess guns, though by law they are not permitted to have them. The authorities do not sentence these individuals to prison when they are intercepted with a gun, as the law clearly calls for. Instead, as often as not, a plea arrangement is reached that permits said criminal to avoid jail time and to stay on the streets.Meanwhile, the Illinois/Cook County goes after the law abiding citizen tooth and nail, denying that citizen his/her constitutional right to own a gun for self protection. The simple truth is impossible to miss: keeping guns out of the hands of Rotarians and secretaries and dentists is easy, and plays well when it comes to self-congratulatory political grandstanding; enforcing the law and holding criminals strictly accountable under the law, in the left-leaning, racially charged, political swamp that is Chicago, is not so easy.
What do gun owners believe should be done to reduce the number of mass shootings in America?
Abolish “gun free zones” which are so attractive to would-be mass-murderers. Instead, fortify our schools the way we fortify our banks; our children are worth more than our money!Don’t just allow but encourage all citizens to get the training, obtain CCW permits, arm themselves properly and carry concealed in public at all times, so that they can respond instantly to a crisis.Require all schools which receive tax money to teach basic firearms safety by the end of grade school, basic firearms competence by the end of middle school, and advanced defensive shooting by the end of high school so that all high school graduates will be capable of gaining CCW permits as soon as they turn 18. Also, restore “Riflery” classes and JROTC courses in all high schools.Provide a dedicated phone-line and website to organize armed and able citizens according to their neighborhood locations, so they can respond to any local emergency. This will make them a properly *organized* militia.Provide better mental-health services for citizens, especially children, than just giving them prescriptions to questionable psychiatric medicines.Abolish all those stupid bans on this-or-that firearm or ammunition, and allow citizens to purchase, own, and carry firearms as soon as they reach 18. Citizenship is not something you can break up into sections!Require all states to legally recognize CCW permits from all other states.Allow private citizens access to the NICS database, so that private sellers can perform background checks when they sell (or give away) firearms.Require all police and health departments, from the FBI and military on down to municipal, to report convicted felons and adjudicated mental incompetents to the NICS database in a *thorough and timely manner*.Require a publicly visible and simple means of appealing placement on the NICS database, so as to avoid abuses.
What would you do to reduce income inequality?
One way would be to tie the salaries of the top management directly to that of the lowest paid employees. first pick a number 20,50,100 times earnings between the two, then when the top feel that they need a raise they would be required to increase the salaries at the bottom to maintain the same ratio of times earnings. all types of compensation would be included to get a fair,level playing field. as long as the rich have the ability to protect them selves through tax shelters and loopholes and the poor don't have anything to lose the middle class will become extinct and the U.S. will become just anther third world country. truly great societies are not measured by there advances,military power,etc. but by the differences between the top of that society and those at the bottom
Do you believe technology and consumerism culture spoiled humans?
Mother Culture is a heartless woman. She talks otherwise intelligent people into having 60 thousand dollar weddings. 4 thousand dollar high school prom dates, 10 thousand dollar engagements rings. Huge , new houses for 2 people and both driving 50 thousand dollar cars. All this on a total net income of about 60 thousand.( if they are lucky) Them Mother Culture ( being the harlot she is) makes fun of those that know how to fend for themselves and can hunt, butcher, know wild plants that are edible, cook,can, shoot and otherwise take care of themselves pretty well without waiting for the surplus milk and cheese commodities. These folks also have some money in the bank, generally little or no debt and are fairly happy and likely did this on less than 60 thousand a year. But, everyone makes their own bed and they ought to lay in it. Not ask someone else to help them out. We all have the right fail but no one is guaranteed the right to riches or wealth. Just the chance for it.
