Owning a firearm in this day and age is one thing, in matters of self-defense, but it still doesn't justify the preoccupation some have with semi-automatics and other ridiculous firearms truly designed for destruction. I can't realistically see any attempt to ban or recall firearms at this point, but I still feel that they should not have been made in the first place. That's just me, though.

Spiwak, the reason I have chosen to reply to you specifically is because I like your opinions (especially on movies, ha ha). Plus, this thread isn't all that exciting to me really, since I'm not really into guns (though I do own a few).
Anyway, I have several swords in my collection, including katanas, broadswords, and rapiers. These were designed to kill people and these types of swords have been used in wars where thousands were slaughtered, but I love military history (wars really have been instrumental in shaping the world as it is today, that's just an unfortunate fact)...so is it inhuman for me to own them?
Seen any good movies lately? Ha ha. I'll go check the Recent movies seen thread.
