Ted Nugent: I don’t like repeat offenders I like dead offenders.

Last night I went to Cabela’s with a friend. He was shopping for a home defense gun. Sidenote: Cabela’s has a screaming deal for a shot gun Remington 870 Express with home defense barrel and hunting barrel for $349.

While I was there I found it amazing that hundreds of people were there doing the same thing. Looking at guns for protection from an increasingly less civil society.  Gun ownership is a right guaranteed by our Constitution. I thought that it was awesome to see people exercising their Constitutional rights. In today’s world, the Constitution and the rights it provides is often forgotten or taken for granted. Its an amazing document and more Americans should take time to read and reread the amazing document written more than 230 years ago.

With that being said…

The thought of the crazy people that think that more gun laws will stop murder is completely insane to me. It doesn’t. A criminal will commit crime when there is opportunity.  Just Read Why I Carry.  This is a page dedicated to crime I have read about in my local area. Its not a complete list but it brings home the point that crime is all around us. You can either be the victim or you can be the wolf. Its really your choice.

On to my favorite Gun Rights Activist Ted Nugent.

Ted Nugent eloquently shares my view on the 2nd Amendment and Crime.

Ted states it memorably and is spot on about gun control and crime.

According to Ted gun-free zones are recipe for disaster. I would agree.

    I wish I could agree with him completely. I'm torn on the gun issue. Do I think that we should have the right to defend ourselves? Absolutely. On the other hand, have I seen the positive effects on violent crime that outlawing guns has had? Yes. I have. Japan and Britain alike have lower violent crime rates (per capita and total) than the U.S. The lack of availability is directly related to that.Now, that being said, I still think we should have the right to defend ourselves. The Second Amendment was originally designed to enable the states (and citizens) to protect themselves from a tyrannical government because, at the time, it was the only way one could do such a thing. Now, it's completely unnecessary as a form of protection from the government (not to mention completely useless given the fact that the government has tanks and bombs).There is, however, a new threat that is becoming increasingly popular and that threat is the general public. Criminals are dangerous. They are made more dangerous by guns.Ted, in this video, contradicts himself in the same sentence. "A good law abiding citizen not convicted of a felony, the second amendment is my concealed weapons permit…" then he goes on to say that he wants NO limitations on carrying weapons. Making it so only law abiding citizens can carry is a limitation, and the only way to do that is through a system of checking the persons history. The way that we buy weapons now.I also have to disagree with his 'murder them all' ideal of handling crime. It's hasty and reminds me of the way things were handled by the government that our founding fathers were trying to get away from.

    You know what Woody.. I was once anti-gun/strict gun control when I was in my early 20's. After years of a lot of thought and reading I changed my mind back to being pro gun. In the last few years I have even become even more pro-gun. The bottom line is I believe in everyone's right to protect themselves to the best of their ability. The gun equalizes every man. I don't believe guns kill people any more than I believe knives or insert weapon here kill people. People kill people.
