Back to the Sixties

A recent Washington Post article thinks the way to “gun safety” is to revert to the loose gun laws of the sixties where you could buy a gun through the mail without any problem. They might be onto something there. Of course, like most anti-gun fools, the writer thinks the idea that the government guarantees you the right to be armed for self defense is a “NRA construct.” It is NOT. The Second Amendment says clearly, that “[T]he right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” That’s not something the NRA dreamed up, but it IS something they fully support, and fight for, in spite of the ignorant brayings of the anti-gun fools. I call them fools because they have to know their anti-gun laws do NOTHING to stem gun crime and, instead, promote it by disarming the law-abiding, making them “easy targets” for criminals, who usually are using ILLEGAL guns. They assume the criminals get their guns legally, and stand for background checks. They do not. They get them any way they can to AVOID having to get them legally and stand for a background check. Their laws therefore only apply to LEGAL gun owners, who are usually NOT the problem. But they keep making them, over and over again. (Washington Post)
