In reply to the discussion: Illinois: Phelps files to override Quinn's amendatory veto of concealed carry bill. [View all]hack89
(39,181 posts)35. Hardly anyone here says that there such be no limits on the 2A
I support most gun control laws - the only ones I emphatically reject is an AWB and registration. I do not believe in the "right to bear any and all arms any and everywhere."
I just assume that support for abortion, the 1A and the right to for you to live is a given - I can't imagine any Dem being against them. Because there is no one at DU vocally advocating against those rights, I don't see the need to post about them. Because some here are vocally advocating against gun rights, I feel obligated to post about it. See how that works?
