The problem with the legal system is there are too many lawyers involved.

Actually, in most juristictions today there is an additional penalty for either the use of a gun in the commission of a crime or possession of a gun while committing a crime.

I take a strict constructionist opinion to the 2nd Ammendment. Any American who wants to keep and bear the type of arms available at the time the Constitution was ammended should have that right. Some of the weapons developed since that time don't need to be in the hands of civilians.

I don't have any use for the morons who want to ban all guns, and I don't have any use for the morons who think we should be able to buy any kind of gun we want. The truth of the matter is that the guns that Anthony has been showing off lately are far more likely to be ripped off and used against some dumb storekeeper, random innocent bystander, or run-of-the-mill cop on the street than they ever will to "protect" himself.

The problem is, the mention of guns in America throws common sense out the window.

And in Missouri, that additional is 5 years
