I live in one of the strictest states in this country for gun laws The Peoples Republic of Massachusetts. I hunt and enjoy shooting all types of guns and for some reason most of the politicans in this country want to tell us what we can and can not do for our own good because we dont know any better. I just read an article in my local paper that said license to carry permits in Mass are up almost 50% and they broke it down by towns which some were as high as a 65% increase for class a large capacity permits. I thought this cant be true all the politicans are saying that everyone in the country wants to get rid of guns!! Its also funny that Sen Feinstiens bill exempts govt employees from these laws. How do these a holes keep getting elected? I have been a gun owner for over 25 years and I and or my guns have never hurt anyone even the "assault rifles". Take a look at New York,Washington,and Chicago they have some of the strictest gun laws and the crime rate is the highest in the country only the criminals have the guns maybe they got them before the bans went into effect. I think if people want to shoot, smoke,drink large sodas,eat fast food,drive a truck,chew,atv,snowmobile or whatever they should be able to without someone telling them that they cant because your not smart enough to know whats good for you.
