Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: Ultimately this whole thread is offensive. [View all]> Neither is your assertion (flawed as it is) that someone legally carrying a gun is injurious to your safety grounds to bar the exercise of that freedom.
Judging by all the massacres by "law-abiding" gun-religionists, you're going to have an uphill battle proving THAT False Equivalence.
Further, to make your ludicrous "point", you'll have to prove that an unarmed person is as dangerous as somebody walking around with guns and ammo.
I pity you guys, really I do. Too scared to go to the supermarket without a weapon on you. The world is a SCARY place!

A person lawfully carrying a gun is statistically far, far safer than someone driving 200 MPH.

Sometimes, when posting from my cell phone, I don't even notice when it separates words like that.
