Horrendous attack in New Zealand

[NORTHOF60]

I don't want to co-opt this tragedy (because, that is what the incident in New Zealand is for sure) to further any agenda I may have, but as a firearms enthusiast I know that the tub thumpers will be trying to turn me and kindred spirits into a social pariahs.

Unfortunately, our politicians don't believe, or won't believe, that you can't legislate against insanity. Guns kill, people don't kill. Ban guns. Guns equal power. Ban guns.

It doesn't matter if the firearms are legal or illegal, gun control advocates (i.e.: ban all guns, regardless) believe all citizens should be stripped of the right to own firearms, and want to ban all sports that require firearms. However, the politicians insist that the police and army remain armed so that the citizenry can't protest against unpopular (but necessary!!!) laws.
