I don't own a gun, I never will own a gun.

Since I don't break laws then I don't need one.

I don't know anybody in jail, anybody who's been to jail or anybody that's been arrested.

I have never had my house, my car, my parents house or my parents car ever broken in to.

The only house that I have ever heard of being burglarized was somebody who bragged at the office and their co-worker's teenage son attempted to break in.  He was arrested at the scene.

I have confidence that the cops would arrive within a few minutes of dialing 911 and I don't fear for my own personal protection nor my family's.

So only criminals own guns? :rolleyes:

Some people are so closed minded that they can't even see through their own bullcrap.

When you look down the barrow of a gun you'll see how quickly you'll change your mind about guns.

I don't know about Canada, but it has been prven legally that the police are NOT legally obligated to protect you, makes you think.

You must live right down the street from a police station in a wealthy suburb or something. In the US mostly, you'd be luck to see the police in less than 5 minutes.

Oh, and BTW, it only takes about say 2-3 seconds for someone to shoot you, long before the police ever get there. They (the police) would be more likely to picking up your dead corpse than "saving you"!

And as for "...I don't break laws then I don't need one", I bet you'd like one if some serial-rapist was raping you in some dark alley, you law-abiding citizen you.

Nicely said.... I was working at a reaturant on a Sunday which is a slow day. 4 guys come in with 12 gauge shot guns and tape my hands behind my back and mouth with duct tape while another guy had a 12 gauge pointed right to my head. Lock me, my dad, and a co-woker in the working box. Our driver that delivers the food was held under the table at gunpoint. After the stole the money, he lets us out. All the phone lines were cut and everything. We called the cops from a pay phone only to come in 30 min.

That guy has no clue whats it like to have a gun pointed at your face. It's not like the movies.... I think I was shaking for a good 15 min from shock. When I turn 21 in Feb I am deffentintly getting a gun for self defense.

i dont want one personally, but i do wish i knew how to use one ^_^ hand gun mostly, not for anything bad @_@ i just personally really wanna learn how to use one lol! and take it apart, and put it back together..yop.. *shrugs* no need to have one at home where i am mind you.

I don't personally own one, but, I am proficient at using them. If the USA ever

tries to "ban" guns altogether, then I will buy one before the ban goes into effect.

The reaon I don't "own" one is that I see and have to deal with so many STUPID

people during the day, I just want to "remove them from the gene pool" if you

know what I mean LOL....

That is the beauty Of The Second Amendment. In oder to ban guns entirely they would have to get rid of the constitution. I would fight it to the last

I think in that kind of situation you would be best to cooperate with the armed robbers.

If you did have a gun, trying to be a hero, you'd probably get shot before you even get a chance to aim.

    • But you still need RAM and a GPU. If you haven`t any spare that`s going to cost quite a bit...
    • Thank you for the feedback! I updated the image
    • Hmm wonder if I can share/resell the 'physical' edition like I can now.

    • JBL BAR 800 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos soundbar is an amazing deal today by Sayan Sen This Amazon Prime Day 2026 sales so far we have had a couple of nice deals related to sound and audio. First we have the Sennheiser HD 600 at its lowest ever price of just $225. Next we also have the Beats Studio Pro at its lowest price ever at just $150. However perhaps you prefer your gear to sound great on a larger scale, like throughout the room. In that case an all-in-one soundbar system can help and currently JBL's BAR 800 is a great deal for sure as it's up for grabs at just $600 (purchase link under the specs table down below). One thing that should be appreciated a lot about these JBL soundbars is their spec sheet and the frequency response data it provides. The firm is honest about it as JBL confirms the subwoofer is able to go down to 35 Hz at -6dB or F6. This means it should be covering 40Hz and up very well, where most of the bass lies. You miss out on a lot of sub-bass but that is to be expected given the price point and the subwoofer driver size. Speaking of which, it is a 10-inch driver and promises a max output power of 300 watts at 1% THD (total harmonic distortion). JBL also claims the system will provide you with a "True Dolby Atmos" experience. The surround speakers are wireless and battery-powered which means setting them up should be really convenient. The technical specs of the JBL BAR 800 are given in the table below: Specification Value Channel Configuration 5.1.2-channel soundbar system Dolby Atmos Yes, with 2 up-firing drivers Total System Power Output 720 W Soundbar Power Output 340 W Surround Speaker Power Output 2 × 40 W Subwoofer Power Output 300 W Soundbar Drivers 3 × 46×90 mm racetrack drivers, 3 × 20 mm tweeters, 2 × 70 mm up-firing full-range drivers Surround Speaker Drivers 1 × 46×90 mm racetrack driver (each speaker) Subwoofer Driver 10-inch (260 mm) wireless subwoofer Frequency Response 35 Hz – 20 kHz (-6 dB) Audio Inputs Optical, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in, AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music (MRM), USB* HDMI Inputs 1 HDMI video input HDMI Output 1 HDMI eARC output HDCP Version 2.3 HDR Pass-Through HDR10, Dolby Vision Bluetooth Version 5.0 Wi-Fi Version 6, 6E Streaming Services Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay, Alexa MRM Get it at the link below: JBL Bar 800-5.1.2-Channel Dolby Atmos soundbar with Detachable Surround Speakers (Black): $599.85 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days.
