We have to respect both opinions and that is why states not the feds. regulate gun ownership.

Thank you salty, right on the target (pun intended)

So can a tooth brush, or any item for that matter. To people in the country where wild animals roam, where one hunts on their own land a firearm it is a tool.
In every war we have fought the best riflemen were from the country because they understood their tool. While city slickers needed to learn from day one.

If you read my post I mentioned long guns, not hand guns.

Tools can build someone positive. Tools were designed to constuct. Guns do not construct anything. They were designed to destroy life. That is their only function when used as designed. You can't pound nails with it. You can't hang a door with it. You can't pave a road with it. You can only kill with it. Their only function is to destroy.

Tools allow us to function. And if you kill a snake while repairing a fence line you will function much better than if the snake kills you.

Proof positive that many on the left are anti gun period and city people for the most part just don't get it salty.

Billo just has HIS OPINIONS and won't change no matter what. I am done in this thread. The debate isn't going anywhere. And if it does I have said my part.

In Michigan a gun is much more than a tool...it's a way of life....
