Great post.
I have a pet peeve about the very term "gun-control" because........
Oh yeah --- so much wrong with this label that it's difficult to know where to begin. I wonder if there's ever been a thread dealing with it?
My view of the RKBA is that it is a logical consequence of the universal right to life in that a right to life implies a right to self-defense.
Yup. I think that ignorance relating to the ease at which criminals can obtain "large capacity clips" etc. leads restriction supporters to believe that bans are the answer. Whatever is easily available to criminals needs to be readily available to innocents -- to argue otherwise is immoral in the extreme. The genie is out of the bottle and is not going back in. Restriction supporters may never get this simple truth though.
The more things change, the more they remain the same and, regardless of what may be demonstrated by the events of the day, lots of folks are seemingly unable to learn anything.
Right -- the Backfire Effect. Maybe we should stop speaking truth to lies.
