On the other hand, in the US it happens that a disaffected fellow has a dissociative episode and shoots up his former workplace or school. It's a culture-bound syndrome. You need to defend society against it.
When you taught at college and had to deal with a deranged individual who eventually got himself expelled for stalking and attempted rape your opinion about gun rights changes.

- turk73 7y ago"Defending society against it" could mean many things but "disarming everyone" isn't on the table. I'm not even in favor of those Red Flag laws because they destroy our due process. Think about it--due process is something we've had in some form since before the US Constitution even existed. It is a basic component of Western legal tradition. And we're now supposed to give that up out of fear? I'd rather hang all the mentally ill people, then. That also would defend society if I am not mistaken. For you downvoters, I'm only making a point, I don't mean it. You're being led by the nose down a dark path and you don't even realize it.
