Gun Control or ?

I just don’t get the opposition to gun control. If you want to own a gun for your protection and a rifle for hunting, ok. But if you want to own 14 KK47s, 12 rifles, 42 handguns, and a submachine gun, you should be stopped. And watched closely forever by every law enforcement agency known to man. All in favor?

I posted this yesterday on Facebook, and have gotten more responses to this than anything I’ve ever written. People chimed in with their positions – pro and con – but without slamming others or using curse words. Just respectful, articulate conversation about what might work, what doesn’t work, and what the future might hold. Awesome!

Some background on why I stand where I stand:

When I was in my 20s and a working actress, I worked in a theater in a bad neighborhood. I bought a handgun and carried it with me because I was afraid. After that, the gun sat in my closet. As I studied spirituality and the law of attraction, I started to feel that having that gun was attracting the experience of having to use it, so I sold it and breathed easier. Years later, I was attacked at 3 am in my home. I woke up, screamed, and he grabbed me and I fought him off. I would not have had time or opportunity to reach for that gun if I had still owned it. Likely if I had tried, he might have got it away from me and I would be dead. Two years after that, a man robbed me a gunpoint in an underground parking garage. He came up behind me and said, “Give me your money!” (Not one of the prosperity affirmations I teach.) I turned around to see a big guy with a big gun and handed over my purse immediately. Again, I would not have had an opportunity to reach into my purse for that gun if I had it. If I had tried, he probably would have shot me. As it was, he took the purse, my jewelry and ran off. So I feel my choice to NOT have a gun has preserved my life.
