Well, that's my two cents. I hope this helps with the article (or at least helps people understand that there are two sides to this argument, not one, and either one is supportable depending on how one prioritizes things). [[User:ETrundel|ETrundel]] 14:31, 30 December 2008 (EST)

== What is the conservative view on gun control ==

== What is the conservative position on gun control? ==

I am pretty much in favor of having a very significant amount of freedom on gun ownership although I certainly do not believe that mentally ill people or people with serious criminal records should have guns and the society has to do a reasonably good job of preventing this from happening.  I do think that the United States could do a better job of regulating gratuitous violence in film and television so it greatly lesser.  I also think if more restitution were employed than maybe more criminals would think twice before assaulting people.  Who wants to harm someone if you know you are mandated to pay all their medical bills by law with no escape via bankruptcy laws?
