28. LOL - "political indulgence"

The 1A didn't kill the ambassador. An armed mob did.

And what inspired that armed mob? The first-amendment-protect religious ramblings of an idiot. The person or persons responsible for making that film with the specific intent of inflaming Muslims is, as far as I'm concerned, just as responsible for the deaths as the armed mob is. Just like a person yelling "fire" in a crowded theater.

And what you have enjoyed all these years along with your genuine rights is a political indulgence of your access to guns and ammunition.

The second amendment was created just for people with your sort of attitude - that my rights can be considered a "political indulgence".

The Bill of Rights is not a political indulgence. No part of it is.

A highly influential and unduly popular political indulgence of a particular personal kink.

That's all it is and could ever be.

I can't believe a liberal could utter such things. That sounds just like the argument against gay marriage.
