now what was your first name again Bob Bob okay uh how how do you feel about uh gun control Bob it's it's kind of like abortion it's kind of a touchy subject but um i i feel that yeah it is any person is uh has the right to be armed but i don't think they should have an arsenal yeah i don't believe in uh automatic weapons i don't believe in in uh having antitank guns and um i i there's just there's just too many uh weapons around yeah uh i kind of i agree i guess i don't i don't think that we need uh um these these automatic or semiautomatic rifles even i mean i don't really even care that the i don't know if you hunt or not but i don't even care that some of the hunters say they they like them i mean no i'm i'm not that you know uh maybe they use them for legitimate purposes but they're all you know folks are getting them and using them for not so legitimate to say the least yeah no purposes what do you feel about uh um how do you feel about a waiting period i yeah i think that's a a good thing in in the sense that it um it stops someone that is acting on a impulse however uh anyone that has a revenge factor in mind is is going to weight that out right um most um Dallas has if you read in the papers recently um the um uh murder ratio in Dallas one point uh seven i think per day uh-huh uh and ninety somewhat percent of these know uh the perpetrator it's it's not it's not criminals that are going out and killing people yeah it it's people with guns that are that are shooting other people yeah it's probably not someone that's running down to the store and buying one either is it probably someone who's got one already yeah no someone that's got one and and and for some reason whatever um they became uh enraged or you know it uh some of these are somebody's dating somebody's uh girl friend or ex-wife or um a person that they know and and it's it's again something that you know it's it's a uh it's a decision of uh emotion not um it's not something you can really control usually i don't think you can uh-huh i don't think you can regulate it if they don't use a gun maybe they'll use a knife hm yeah yeah i mean yeah i don't know if i mean yeah if someone wants to do someone in they're gonna do it whether they have a gun or not uh what do you think about that um that uh sure deal with the police officer evidently evidently um i guess they speculate that it was teenagers that that somehow got a hold of a gun well yeah yeah yeah and and you look at the you know drive by shootings and things like that with with young uh people involved it's it's it's a very volatile situation it's a funny world that we live in yeah i i we just moved here about eight or nine months ago from from uh a little town in North Carolina um-hum and uh we have lived in Fort Worth before and and in Houston for a while so we we're you know we're accustomed to the big city but my kids weren't in in the age they are now they're in uh high school and junior middle school um-hum and the middle the high schools around here um man police have come in and and uh you know they got they raid the school and take out ten revolvers you know i mean it's just uh yeah sure so it seems like um you know it seems like and no and that's not a case of someone flipping out and running down and buying one so a waiting period isn't gonna help that but it seems like that there ought to be something that could be done to at least make it harder for those kids to get their hands on guns well that that's parental control yeah and and that's you know that extends beyond guns that extends to drugs and everything else that that is bad in our society and and we don't have the we don't have the parental control that that we need yeah that's true that's that's a there's there's there's no deterrent um there really isn't and and you're not going to stop uh guns from being on the streets again if they don't use a gun they'll use something else and and then you take away the fact that uh somebody has a right to protect their property
