My confusion about weapon rights.

One thing I will never understand or get is people's fear of weapons, or the rules to outlaw or ban them. Yes, weapons are dangerous but weapons don't kill people, people kill people and people must have the means to defend themselves from such attackers. Banning them won't do anything, as people will still end up getting them no matter what. Also, the law they tried to pass stating that people must hand them over is even more ridiculous. Why? What makes you think a criminal, a belligerent/sadistic/unlawful human being would just simply hand over his hand-held lethality or his leeway to making you hand over your wallet or whatever he wants? They are willing to break the law, what makes you think they will start following it now all of a sudden? The fact that you ask nicely? Or because it's a rule? Rules are just words, words can't stop people physically. So nothing would be holding them back. I believe we should be allowed to have weapons at our disposal and to carry them around safely for our own protection like how it is for Texas. It's more lawful in Texas because everyone is allowed to have a gun on them without a permit, so when people want to rob someone, they have to consider the fact that they have a gun too. Since the criminals have no advantage to doing such heinous acts in Texas, it happens less now. In other places though, people are unreasonably scared and ban weapons unnecessarily. For example, butterfly knives are a weapon that are banned without a logical cause. Butterfly knives are by far the least sensible knife to use for certain reasons, the handle is not secure, it's split into to for flipping it around and the blade isn't that big. The only reason why it seems scary is because it's by far the flashiest knife. The fact is though, that's just looking all cool and really does nothing. Something swinging it around is less threatening them someone who just simply uses his knife. The only reason why they banned it was because people started getting a lot of them and brought them to school and stuff and started whipping them out and the government got unreasonably scared to where they had to ban them. It makes no sense though, why ban them? I mean we have pocket knives and even bigger and scarier knives then butterfly knives. We even got knives that you can hide in things that you would have never known about. So there is no point in banning butterfly knives with plenty of other weapons. There is no point in banning weapons as there will always be dangerous things that are even scarier. All I want to say is weapons are just only as dangerous as the user, so people shouldn't try to control the weapons. They should try to control the people using weapons. They should have more watchful eyes and try to find solutions to how to deal with weapon users then to deal with weapons themselves. I would rant on more and continue to explain other weapons that have been unreasonably banned but I am currently exhausted and tired so I will continue another post about weapons another day. I want to thank you for reading this and I hope I reconsidered your thoughts about weapons.

Who I am and what this blog will be about.

Hello, my name is Mr. Magnum and not to be confused with the derogatory version of the story. I am merely just wanting a blog to post my opinion and views upon things around the world so I can finally vent out my thoughts with a chance that people around the world can hear. I am going to start with a quick introduction about who I am and what I usually do. I am a man, my current age is of no importance nor does my scholarship or current degree in any field of study matters either. This is a blog about my opinion and views, either you listen to my thoughts or you don't. I am also a normal human being, an artist who has a love for video gaming and weaponry along with great stories and a good exercise to keep me fit. I have a girlfriend who I care about so I also do understand the concept of love. Enough told about me, on this blog I will just post my thoughts on current events or things that have happened or will happen. You can feel free to comment a question in hopes I will reply back with a post of my thoughts about your own question. Feel free to say your own thoughts or opinion, just don't expect any consequences to not happen, they will not be replied back to unjustly though. Anyways, feel free to share this with your friends and family as I will start to make my posts starting today. Also note that I will not post constantly so don't worry about having to check back every minute. Thank you for reading this, I hope you enjoy anything that comes up in the future.
