It's much worse that that. People seem to think that if they are sitting on the couch watching TV and three armed men blow through that door from a draw in a side table or from the kitchen and get into a gun battle and live through it. And some times it does happen that way - but sometimes it doesn't.

Here in Sacramento a few months ago a pawn shop owner was robbed by two armed men. Logic would dictate that two armed men with handguns drawn and pointed trumps one man who has a gun under the counter. The pawn shop owner didn't understand his situation, and while he was pulling out his gun he got shot multiple time - in the face, loosing an eye in the process. (The pawn shop owner, btw, has more balls than ALL of us put together - because with his fucking eyeball hanging out of his face he chased them down the street!)

I'm not on meds. But when I get to buy my AR15, no one fucking asked me if I was.

If you want to own firearms, awesome, great. Let's go. The gun range is less than two miles from my house; I can hear them shooting on the weekends and I swear it gives me wood.

But is asking too much to make sure that firearm owners haven't been charged with assault recently? Or is it asking too much to make sure that a gun owner isn't on medication?

I'm not saying I want anyone to have their firearms taken away. I'm saying let's apply some common sense here. It shouldn't be easier to buy a firearm than it is to get a driver's license.

I'm just saying I want laws that will protect my family. My AR15 isn't going to protect my wife when she's at the mall or my kid when she's at school.
