Are you defending Alton Sterling and his right to carry a gun?

You have no issue with his violent criminal history or are you just being goofy?

The founders NEVER imagined an asshole like this having a right to carry a gun.

The Founders never intended us to have so many felonies on the books, they also never intended 20 year and life sentences and were unafraid to use capital punishment.
They were, however, of the mind that there should not be two classes of citizen. The Dred Scott case denied that a freed slave was a citizen, in part because if he was he would have the right to own a firearm.

You have no issue with his violent criminal history or are you just being goofy?

If the crimes were not prosecuted, or the sentences too lenient, then the problem ought not be addressed by stripping one of rights but by correcting the investigation/prosecution/sentencing.

Are you defending Alton Sterling and his right to carry a gun?

Are you for using the government for the denying the right of a Citizen to carry a gun?
