Gun Control & RKBA
Related: About this forumThere is no such thing as being, "anti gun."
All law is predicated on the use of force, including deadly force.
Those who propose gun control laws are not advocating for the absence or guns but merely exclusivity in the use of guns. Advocating for laws is to advocate for the use of force.
But the use of force against whom? Women? The elderly? Shop owners? Family members? Hobbyists?
And this is supposedly done in the name of protecting the innocent.
Gun control is a wildly self-contradicting creed.

So, if gun control laws are ignored it is your assertion there will be no reliance upon force to affect compliance?
Perhaps then I will no longer argue against your proposals.

Some just can't stand the idea of ordinary people being armed, since they "might take the law in their own hands" doncha know.

remember with the "guns kill people" crowd, it's the object that makes folks go sour.

Wouldn't want to pollute society when a can of beans will do nicely.

(597 posts)Any argument that only one person chooses to repeatedly make a fool of himself against is a) probably a good argument, and b) evidence that said person is probably at the bottom of the intelligence and rationality scales regarding opponents of that argument.
That is, every village has an idiot...
