My freedoms does NOT let murderous folk own guns.
Yes it does. Because all criminals get their guns from "responsible gun owners". No gun starts off as an "illegal gun"...every gun that ends up in the hands of criminals was first purchased legally from a retailer. Then the "responsible gun owner" made the
choice to bring that gun into their homes, where they're stolen. 234,000 guns are stolen from homes and cars every year...only 86% of those are even reported to the cops.
That's not "responsible gun ownership". That's not "responsible" anything.
That is THEIR freedom and can be adjudicated away from them if they are truly murderous. When you want to limit my freedom because of something someone else might do, you are trying to leave me powerless when a criminal will just ignore the law." I realize you're trying, but the lipstick does not change the pig into a horse.
If you are a responsible gun owner, then you get lumped in with all gun owners since you made the choice to be a gun owner. Making that choice means you bear responsibility for the people who have also made that choice. So every single "responsible gun owner" whose guns are lost or stolen, or who sell their guns to shady characters because they need the money, falls squarely on your head.
And if a gun is the
only thing that makes you feel like you have power, then you need to go see a shrink because you're mentally unbalanced and disturbed and thus, shouldn't own a gun.
