You Leftist-Pacifists are terribly conflicted. On the one hand you say things are dangerous out there, therefore the government needs to take away everyone's gun. Murderers and nutcases are running rampant; so we need to get those guns out of circulation. On the other hand, you scoff at those interested in preserving their right to bear arms by saying, things aren't at all dangerous out there; so you don't really need any guns. You Second-Amendment, NRA, gun-nuts are just paranoid. Fortunately, we don't need to justify our right to bear arms. If murderers and nutcases are running rampant, we can defend ourselves against them. And if things are really safe out there, we can just keep our guns in our toolboxes with our other tools. Lawrence
