pulse shooting in orlando, FL

[5TailedDemonLizard]

Y'all bring up a lot of good points and I respect that because they are well thought out and also considering what Neo and I have said in addition to that. I respect your opinions, but you know, I can't help but fear that if we outlaw guns, one day when I'd be legally allowed to possess one but couldn't because the laws prevented it, someone is going to break into my house and physically harm me or worse, and it could have been prevented if I had a gun. At my current house, I usually feel pretty safe because we have a dog that alerts me if someone so much as drives by our house. At college, the security systems are crazy as crap so I doubt anything will happen there. But in four or six years, when I'm on my own, living in my own apartment or house, what am I to do when the only thing that could possibly protect me is illegal for me to use now, but the guy who is coming to kidnap me and sell me through a human trafficking ring does have one. That is my biggest fear when it comes to outlawing guns. It always has been and it always will be, and it is the main reason that when I turn twenty-one, I'm learning how to shoot a gun and purchasing one as soon as I can following that.

The thing is, people don't want to outlaw guns. They want to heavily regulate them. We don't want to take away guns from people (not all of them, anyway).

So many people have died since January 1st. Why has nothing been changed? How many more people need to die before something is done? In the 133 mass shootings, if each only had 5 victims, it would total to over 660 deaths. With this orlando shooting alone it reaches 700+.

In five months.

Why is this still happening? Why haven't more regulations been put in place? I don't want a gun-free America.

I want a safer, gun-regulated America.
