The Power to Say "No"

The Second Amendment gives all Americans the undeniable RIGHT to “bear arms.” It does not specify what “arms” we may bear, of under what rules. But today’s limpid bureaucrats and politicos think they can “regulate” them out of existence. So they first apply the “need” for a license to be armed, a specific violation of the Constitution, which dictates the law. Under the Second, no such license should ever be required because the power to license gives the government the power to say “no.” And the government should have no such power. Yes, allowing free ownership and use of a gun means criminals will be able to get guns legally, too. But why would they? They can get them much easier illegally. Or just steal them. You cannot stop criminals from getting guns by making laws to limit the purchase and use of guns by honest, law-abiding people. It can’t be done, even if it were not allowed under the Constitution. Criminals will always get their guns, and there are millions of illegal guns already in the hands of criminals, crazies, and now Islamic extremists. I know why politicians favor gun control. They fear an armed populace. But the private citizens who favor it are either in for the money, or they’ve “bought the BS” put out by the politicians. (Just common sense)
