A "right" may remain a "right" as long as it does not "infringe" upon any rights of others.
In America, there is freedom of religion. You can worship as you please. But if your worship interferes with my rights, then you lose your right.
A saying. Your right to swing your fist, ends at the tip of my nose.
Anyone can own a weapon, but if their actions determine that they will infringe upon the rights of life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, then they forfeit that right.

So who decides when my "rights" have been "infringed" upon?
Isnt taking guns away from gun owners pretty much the same as taking it away from someone with depression?
Dont they have the right to defend themselves?
Or what about schizophrenics?
Most of them never hurt anyone, who are you or anyone else to take away their liberties as put down in the holy constitution?
Some could argue that a gun in your house and the potential for violence contained within it are infringements upon the safety and "liberty" of anyone within bullet distance of you
Support gun ownership, no worries you can put forward semi decent arguments for that
Support the 2nd Amendment, your just a gun nut without common sense, those few paragraphs are no longer suitable for todayedit on 20/1/2013 by IkNOwSTuff because: (no reason given)
But the 2nd Amendment has worked! In the past 200+ years, we have not had a tyrannical government try to overthrow the will and rights of the people and enslave a nation!

Stop persecuting me guys, I know exactly what I'm talking about and who is behind this sinister
operation. Not entirely, but at least I've uncovered a talking point that is going - right now - largely
ignored.

I cant think of anything more poetic, A gun accidently fires and hits 5 guns nuts at a gun show
The people who were hit would be part of the "guns are perfectly safe" crowd and since no one died, Sorry but this is funny as S***

This WILL get worse and more "accidents" and tragedies" WILL happen MORE frequently until people stand up and DEMAND something be done.
