Are Most Viet Nam/Korea and WWII Vets Anti Gun?

Well i respect his choices, but i just can't agree with your friend at all. It's a doccumented fact the communities with high legal gun ownership has less crime and are safer, but places with restrictive gun laws, the only people with out guns are the ones who obey the laws, and obviously the criminals don't give a shit and have guns any way, like in LA and New york city. Lets face it, violence was around long befor guns, and even if guns weren't around, bad people would still be killing people. but with bows and arrows and swords all over again. Think Brave heart stuff. And the anti gun people think just cause they are loud and through temper tantrums like and 8 year old, they think they are the majority.

My father was in Korea with the 101st Airborne.He told me lots of his stories and never once regretted his actions.Some people are truamatized by the amount of death they see, others aren't. My father in law still has emotional problems from his tours in Vietnam, but he still isn't anti gun.I guess it all boils down to a persons character in general.Your friend may be using his bad experiences to justify his judgment of others. I find that most activists, vegans, enviromentalists, and anti gun activists, seem to have a host of problems that make them feel they need to change the world.When really their problems are with themselves.Try to get to their real problem and deal in facts when you talk to them.You will find they have a reason that they feel that way, usually not related to the gun issue.You may hear, "My brother was shot by a gun." or something like that. But If you ask questions you will find out that they were shot by a person who used a gun.I have never really heard of a gun sprouting legs and shooting someone.As for being arrested, I think people that think I should be for exercising my rights would probably be happier living in Cuba Or Venesuala.And you friend should probably been fighing for the other side if he feels that way.

I compete in CFD (cowboy fast draw) competition and was just this past week end competeing at our state event, I am close to or am the youngest member at age 40 so I imagine most people are vietnam age at least and older and I saw no one complaining the we walked around with colts on our hips (men and women alike) like we were in 1880's Dodge city. Well then again this was in the Bull mountains of MT. and they probably walk around with guns all the time anyway
If you get a chance look up the laws in Kennesaw,GA. They have one on the books that says to live there you must own a gun and ammunition for that gun! They no longer enforce that law and more then likely the people living there don't even know it exists but it is not an old law, it was passed in the late 70's I believe and was enforced while I was growing up there. It was the country back then and now you can't tell where it ends and Atlanta starts. at least back then we had NO crime no one was dumb enough to commit crime in a town where they knew everyone had to own a gun!!!
