    Sorry to disappoint but just because I don't want to take away your video games doesn't mean I don't want to take away your guns.

        @avantgame I've never done anything to deserve having mine taken, though I certainly respect your opinion.

        @avantgame gun control hurts our Foreign relations; In WW2 the fact we had guns in every home helped us a lot; stopped invaders from trying.
