So...are you saying some who have already committed crimes should not be allowed guns?

What about our 2nd amendment rights? You’re acting like those who have committed a crime should not be allowed guns, isn’t that your argument that if we didn’t allow guns that criminals would get them anyway???

Gotta choose one....can’t be on both sides of the coin.

nice liberal move there. Postulating something I didn't say and then arguing against it. Just to make my position clear, I feel very stongly that criminals should NOT be armed while in jail. However, once they've served their time, they should have the same right to protect themselves as anyone else. After all if they're a danger to society, what are they doing out of jail? and if they're not a danger to society there isn't any harm in letting them arm themselves is there?

Price of freedom again. I think Sam Adams had something to say to you

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom--go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!

Oh and Ben Franklin has something to say to you too
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both
