8. Not at all.
Edited on Sun Apr-26-09 12:59 PM by liberalmuse
Note the poster said they feared, 'Idiots with guns'. The poster said nothing regarding taking away guns. Those of us who chose not to own a gun have rights, too, such as:

1. The right to send our kids to school or to a friend's house to play without worrying about some careless gunowner's kids shooting them.
2. The right to go out in public without having to worry about being gunned down by a homicidal gun nut
3. The right to express our displeasure with gun fetishists'. It's pathetic and a bit obscene shoving your iron dicks in our faces. IMO, the 2nd Amendment applied to the right of the colonists to have militias, much like our Army Reserves and National Guard, where guns are kept in a safe under lock and key. If you need to own a gun to 'complete you', then sorry, but don't be surprised of some people view that as a bit sad, and telling.
