Well how simple can your friggen mind get.... This has grown to a level of F$%KING stupidity... You're rights... you're rights... FFS, we don't live in the society that had 5 year olds running around with their own .22's any more. Most people in America live in urban centers, not on farms or in the boonies. The people in these urban centers, more likely than not have not even held a firearm and you think it's just friggen peachy... because it's their right.. to turn them lose with a gun?
Get off your friggen "It's my right" high horse and come back down here where reality hangs out.
I still associate this to cars.. yeah brain child I know driving isn't a right, but it is a presumed privilege.. so if we take your stance, we shouldn't require anyone to have to be educated about the safe operation of a vehicle, or what the rules - read laws - are?
Unfortunately, militant "It's my right" fools making blanket, unrealistic and unyielding comments such as yours are the exact reason the Liberal Left even gains leverage with the uninformed.
Why the hell you think that people should just figure it out on their own, or apply the oxymoronic "common sense" to firearms is well and obviously beyond my ability to grasp.
Now don't you DARE assume that I want to forgo my right to keep and bear arms.. or to arm bears for that fact. I believe in that and the rest of the rights we as Americans have, but if you cannot accept that the rest of America thinks there needs to be controls and laws that allow that right but ensure civility and societal responsibility, then you need to stop sniffing glue and get some fresh "reality based" air.
Yeah.. this is really annoying me if you didn't figure that out.
