33. With All Due Respect to Your 'Personal Activities'

I am happy (at least I think I am) that you store your gun safely. Do you really need 30 shots to defend yourself? If so, then you need marksmanship classes - but I digress. I would not presume to know what our Founding Fathers would think of viruses or automatic weapons. All I know is how I feel about what's going on now, in January 2013. We have too many such weapons available far too easily to people who have no business having them. As I said in a previous post, at some point the common good outweighs personal rights - we need to be protected from ourselves on some level. Years ago when my 4-year-old son wanted to play with the hot pot on the stove, despite his insistence that he 'wanted' to I prevented him from burning the hell out of himself. He flew into a rage, flung himself on the floor, and pitched one hell of a hissy fit. It was his right to do so. It was also my right to remove said boiling pot from the his reach and then adjust his 'reset' button. Too bad we can't do that to some adults I know.
