by the way, suicidal people really want to die is a myth too.
Some do some do not. Everyone isn't the same. Sorry you had to go through that though...

Thank you for your kind words.

That is why I generally avoid debating with people about guns, I think both sides have valid points.

Often times even valid points become moot where it comes to our rights. To say that it is abhorrent that the KKK can use a park to hold a rally is a valid point but it's irrelevant to their right to do so.

Debating with people about guns is a big mistake. Something I should have learned a long time ago.

That's interesting.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
A recent decision from a Federal District Court in Massachusetts comes to much the same conclusion.

Federal Court: Massachusetts' law requiring visitors to have a MA License to Carry a Gun, is UNCONSTITUTIONAL

I want the principles of my country upheld which include rights of the individual.
