I don 't oppose the laws against larcency.
I do not challenge their legitimacy.
My
only point is that government has no jurisdiction to control guns,
because that authority was withheld from government,
as a condition of government 's existence.
If any property is stolen ( including guns, the same as anything else )
it shud be removed from the possession of the thief,
he shud be criminally prosecuted, and the property shud be restored
to the possession of its rightful owner.
