RE: DTube - Las Vegas Shooting And The Cold Hard Truth About Gun Control
It's just not rational that the gun debate has devolved to such an extent. The only two available positions are the far extremes, of all guns all the time. Or no guns ever at any time.
I'm a gun owner, and I don't feel it infringes the 2nd amendment to have limits on gun possession. We have limits on the types of vehicles which are 'street legal'. There are limits on the types of things you can do when building a residence. This does not take away our ability to have a vehicle or a residence. Likewise, with gun related crimes being quite high in this country compared to other western capitalist democracies.
Guns are not already heavily restricted? What restrictions would you add? The NFA wasn't enough? Do the current gun laws stop predators and soon to be murderers from using guns to commit crimes? No, they do not. All gun laws do is make it difficult for individuals to have an equal defense against government forces. There will always be that double standard, but it needs to be as little as possible.
