Should there be limitations with gun purchases?
Going to the theatres now will you carry a gun (legally) to ensure your protection if something like colorado happens?
Yes, there should be limitations. We should make a law that says you can't shoot innocent people for no reason at all. That will put a stop to this kind of nonsense.
And I don't go the the theater carrying a gun. I happen to carry a gun, and when I go to the store, the park, the theater, to work, or just driving around it goes with me. One time it even managed to save me from a fairly bad situation.
Apart of me agrees but more parts are terrified by too many folks packing Remington shotguns and A R assault rifles. Instead of protection guns may become used for power, unless we're in the walking dead I don't believe everyone needs gun everywhere
Exactly as Jack Burton said. Yes there should be limitations on gun purchases and no I won't begin to carry one to the movies.

Should gun owners be able to bring guns to churchNow some gun owners are upset because Starbucks won't let them bring guns into their stores. I guess it's difficult to drink coffee without a concealed weapon. If the coffee is served too hot, the customer can only yell and not shoot the store...
