I refuse to consider Florida as a permanent relocation option because of their stupid law about not printing. I don't hide it when I carry and you'd be amazed at how many people suddenly act human when they notice it. It's over *80 most of the year for christ sake, how are you supposed to hide it in that kind of weather?

When I watch CNN and MSNBC they adamantly deny this is democrat/liberal behavior while telling their brain dead audience it's republicans/conservatives that are the violent ones, even with zero proof ....

I'm pretty good about knowing my gun laws, but I was not aware that was even legal in Virginia. Good to know. Reminds me, my permit needs renewal.

Not sure why you would want to compare Brazil with the US. Everyone knows it is unstable there.

Oh, and you think everyone is stable here? You think we are civil here? Not if the left has its way! LMAO
"Gun freaks". OK, if that's what you want to call us. When 4 black men invaded my home this gun freak chased them out with a fucking laser pointer . . . though it was attached to lead delivering device. When 4 black men appeared out of the woods carrying pipes and bats and approached my brother and I at a very remote county dump site in upstate NY this gun nut only had to brandish my otherwise concealed handgun to cause them to make an immediate u-turn and give up that bad idea. When a nine foot long mountain lion charged me at 4am on a remote mountain top in West Virginia a single warning shot caused that cat to make a midair u-turn not 15 feet from me. When a central American hoodlum decided to cross the empty street late one night in Gaithersburg, MD and head right at me it took only a flash of my gun to change his mind. All without ever hurting anyone or anything.
This is the US of A. We did not give up our God given right to defend ourselves against criminals, of both the civilian and government kind. If you think it has gotten crazy here lately then just imagine how crazy it would be if we were all unarmed? The most dangerous place to be is a gun free zone. FBI statistics have proven this to be the case repeatedly. Where gun laws are most strict they have the most violent crime and vice-versa. The vast majority of violent gun crimes are committed using illegal guns. Another interesting statistic. Concealed carry permit holders are statistically safer and less likely to commit a violent crime than police officers. A proven fact. We are by far the safest demographic.

Your statistics are based on the US. Canada is quite a bit different. Our laws are stricter and its regulated by the federal government. We have our share of crime here too. And most violent crimes are illegal firearms.
I find laws in some states about the right to defend yourself can be a bit scary. I can understand if your life was definitely in danger but Ive seen video footage of people that have shot and killed an unarmed person and claimed self defense. How do they determine what is within the laws of defending yourself.
Better than Canadian laws though. It seems we dont have the right to defend yourselves. If you kill or injure someone defending yourself the police will charge you with the crime and you will have to through the courts to prove that the actions taken were necessary. Reminds me of a friend of mine that had his house broke into. He was sleeping and he heard the fridge open and heard someone crack a beer. He went to investigate and found 2 intruders. One of the guys attacked him, he fought him off and beast the crap out of him while the other guy took off. He called the police, they came down and arrested the guy and charged him with a break and enter. My friend got hauled into jail that night too and got charged with assault.
