It would appear from the recent shooting at a Walmart that the left is opposed to self defense as well. A man was physically attacked and defended himself and people like Luddy call him a criminal.
So all the claims in the past about self defense not happening isn't the point, what they mean is no one should ever shoot anyone even in self defense.
Then we have the useful idiots that remind us some lefties own firearms. usually with the claim that because of that no one is trying to take them away.
How many examples do we need of high profile democrats demanding just that? A ban on firearms and a confiscation of privately owned firearms?
Add to that the refusal of some to acknowledge the Supreme Court ruled the 2nd is an INDIVIDUAL right not dependent on belonging to a militia. And further that it applies to the States.
Once again from this post we see that the right continues to be ignorant of what constitutes a fallacy, as again many on ‘the left’ own and carry firearms.
Consequently the premise of the thread fails.
And yet it is the left that demands more gun laws, demands bans, demands no carry, demands the Supreme Court change the ruling that made the 2nd n individual right. Demands that private ownership be barred and all private weapons confiscated.
As for your claim that most carry, that is a bald faced lie too. Most are in the cities and they either are barred by law from owning one or are afraid of them.
