I'll admit to being a bit uniformed over what the 9th wants to take away from our 2nd amendent; its never best for 'we the people'.
I just meant that yet another terrorist attack (Orlando) should give all pause about taking our freedoms. If we don't have protection, only criminals and terrorists will.

It will not give pause to any of these powerful, overbearing people. Quite the opposite. It will only ramp up their efforts to trash the 2nd Amendment. Islamic terrorism is secondary to them. They don't even use the name Islam for fear of offending someone. Punishing law-abiding Americans and abolishing the 2nd Amendment is their primary goal.
BTW, if anybody has any kind of satisfaction over what happened in Orlando, I want nothing to do with them.

Welcome back, Roy. Haven't seen you around in awhile.
Today I decided to celebrated the Judge's ruling by going out and adding to my gun collection. So, I went shopping and found a 9 by 19 mm Hi-Point Carbine priced at $419. It comes with a very nice laser scope as well. The only down side is only a single 10 round magazine. However, that is easily remedied as I went online and ordered four 15 round magazines.
I fancy the 9mm as opposed to the 5.56 and 7.62 as the 9 packs quite bit more punch. I figure this one will come in handy when they knock on my door to take my guns away.

I support your right to own a gun or many guns. I'm just curious what one does with such a weapon, other than for target practice.

What would anyone do with any gun? Killing other people isn't something that we legal gun owners do.
I don't just like guns, I love guns. I grew up with guns. I shoot for the fun of it. I like the smell of burnt gun powder
I clean them. I look at them. I have other gun owner friends and we talk about guns and munitions. We go the the range, shoot a few rounds and then go have lunch and a beer. I have other hobbies. I love to work with wood. I make table and desk tops. I have recently built a Mahogany desk for my wife. I built some cabinets for her. In the past month I have put up a fence, built a book case for my collection. Built a cherry wood desk and other things for my office. I have more tools and wood working gadgets than you could possibly understand? However, if I had told you I bought a new saw you would have never asked me that question.
I have a question for you. Do you have any hobbies or things you enjoy? Do you play golf? If so how many golf items do you own? How many different courses do you play? Do you have friends who also golf and do you go play a round of golf with them and then go have lunch and a beer? I don't golf, but I have friends that golf and they all have more and different clubs than they could ever possibly use.
I hear this question asked of gun owners all the time. It is like we have to justify our sport and our diversion from the mundane things in life. I know people with weird hobbies who spend a ton of money buying weird accessories and spending time with their weird friends enjoying their weird hobby.
Why is it that gun lovers have to justify why they buy a new gun?
The safest place to be is being surrounded by gun owners who have carry conceal permits. People with carry conceal permits can't be felons. They can't ever have had a restraining order against them.
They can't be aliens. They can't have been certified as being nuts [mentally deranged]. They have to go through a safety course. They are finger printed and ran through the FBI criminal databases. They have to be clean, honest and up front good people.
The statistics show that, nationally, less than 0.007% of people who have carry conceal permits commit a felony. Whereas, about 10.00% of all US citizens have committed a felony or are in prison for a felony. In Florida it is about 14%. It varies by state. So, the question is if you wanted to be cooped up with 10 Oklahoma citizens [picked at random] you don't know would you rather be cooped up with those with carry conceal permits or take your chances with the Oklahoma general population?
You asked a question I gave you an answer.
Your "You can stop struggling now" reminds me of why I quit posting on this board.
Yeah, that was over the top on my part. My apologies.You asked a question I gave you an answer.

Since you're a law biding citizen, I wouldn't care if you bought a Sherman tank.
No, but there is a delete button...which I'm using.Wish there was a Dislike button.......
