Isn't that exactly the argument inherent in gun control legislation?
- dopamean 13y agoYes. I don't like most gun control legislation either. My only belief regarding gun control is that if we want to do it properly we have to repeal the 2nd Amendment.
- privong 13y agoThis gets into the issue of where rights originate. Do they originate with the government (or its founding documents) or are they an integral part of being human?
- dopamean 13y agoI don't believe a right to bear arms is an integral part of being human. I think the 2nd Amendment has outlived its usefulness.
- tsotha 13y ago>I don't believe a right to bear arms is an integral part of being human. Couldn't disagree more with this. I think the right to self-defense is very much and integral part of being human.
