U r correct that I own guns.
A house without a gun is a dangerous place,
in that it cannot defend itself from depredation.
I support possession of guns by every person who is worthy of
defending himself. (Note that I support "equal protection of the laws")
Violent recidivists, shud be Banished
from the North American Continent, taking no interest in their tools.
Fonetic spelling is efficient. U shud have been able to figure that out.
Non-fonetic is inefficient, wasteful, n anti-logical. It is dead weight.
Dragging dead weight, n instructing the pre-literate young to do so,
all of their lives, is anti-efficient, anti-intelligent, bad advice.
I feel as tho we r all in a car with a flat tire, driving along,
everyone thinks its fine, saying that plainly having 3 round tires is good enuf,
that there is no reason to desire having 4 round ones; denying that
having 4 round tires makes any sense.
Having competent defenses from the depredations of animals, criminals,
or governments, is not "devolution". Being defenseless is "devolution".
Additionally, I wish to support ALL of our constitutional rights,
not to let any of them fall into desuitude. Our rights under the
2nd Amendment are superior to any of the other rights,
in that they preserve our rights to survive, and to keep governments
in line, as to the rest of our rights.
The 2nd Amendment protects n defends the SOVEREIGNTY that
the Founders invested in the CITIZENS, having wrested it from
government. It puts physical power into the hands of private
citizens, all of whom outrank, their miserable hireling, government,
who serves similarly to a real estate property manager,
whereas we citizens are the owners.
How's that for an explanation ??
P.S.:
I am willing to entertain the possibility of legislating an EXCEPTION
to "equal protection of the laws"
such that ONLY private citizens may carry guns,
but that every holder of public office, as persona non grata,
must remain unarmed,
just to keep government well inferior to the individual citizen, in power,
n remind government who's boss around here.
