and an interpretation of the 2nd Amendment that says you can own a gun or guns of any type and take them anywhere you want to.
Don't I have a right to go some place and feel safe that there isn't a gun owner there with gun?
I am not going to make a distinction between "good" gun owners and "bad" gun owners any more.
I feel that we as a people have the right to make laws that say you can't take your gun here or there.
Notice I didn't say you can't have a gun. I am saying that I don't want to have to worry that a gun owner is in the Wilmart with me with his gun. And no I don't want you to be there with your gun to shoot the bad guy should he appear.
I feel that I have rights too. The right to restrict gun ownership and usage.
There is no absolute right provided by the Constitution to unlimited gun ownership and usage. The latest court rulings even state that reasonable restrictions on gun rights are constitutional.
Now if I am not on a bunch of their ignore lists I imagine a bunch of gun owners will reply with their NRA talking points and insults and bullying tactics. By their words shall you know them.
