If nobody had a gun then you would have to learn to be better with a sword than the other guy or die.
The world has been there and done that.
Dead by sword or dead by gun your still dead.
And if nobody had the internet would the pen or the sword be mightier? Is freedom of the press limited to those who own presses? Radio, TV and the internet could never have been envisioned by the framers, after all.
Piers and the Godless left does not get, "endowed by our creator" nor the wisdom of their words.
