What fun is designed for is not relebant. I am law abiding and I own them and have never hurt anybody. There is no justification for treating me like a criminal for having it.

What purpose besides destruction does a firearm serve?

FF, now you are taking soundbites from someone like IHTNR; that is not becoming of you. You appear to be much more intelligent than that, and you know that not every gun owner carries a gun because of a sort of phallic symbol. Not every gunowner has a truck with a rebel flag in the back window, and many liberals in congress carry guns.
That is becoming a very shallow arguement. It is becoming a child-like arguement

Doesn't matter. It is a right that is GUARANTEED under our constitution. Want to change that FACT, get your reps together in congress, garner 2/3 of a majority to get the 2nd amendment overturned. Its that simple....

Of those who posted on this thread, and are anti-gun, have you ever been shooting?
I own many guns, I was born and raised in westchester county new york. I was not raised with guns. I served in the military for 8 years. I was a police officer for 3 years. I exercised my rights and began collecting guns. I carry a concealed weapon for protection, as does my wife. I hunt. I shoot often, usually 1000 rounds/month. There are a number of loaded firearms in my home at all times. None has ever killed anyone. None has ever been drawn out of necessity.
So, to answer nazi's question, my guns serve the purposes of recreation and self-defense.
I think something must be wrong with my guns though, none of them has ever just jumped up and shot someone. I guess they really are just metal tools.
