Ooooh, A shiny new red herring!


We won't surrender all of our rights and personal freedoms in order to eliminate violent crime (no question that a Soviet style police state has almost no crime, other than those committed by the state), and therefore we can't even discuss ways to safeguard guns, to limit access to folks like, I don't know, suspected terrorists, and to have people prove competence before they acquire guns that can fire many rounds per second. I mean, that's Logic 101, right?

The 2A was written when an expert marksman could maybe get off three shots in a minute. And I don't think anyone thought it covered cannons and mortars back then. Today's unsophisticated handguns can probably do more damage on average than those weapons could.

But no, if we won't surrender all our rights, guns are off the table.

That's a good one. I gotta remember that one.
