The leftists don't get it -- criminals don't follow laws (they should know), only law-abiding citizens do. So how does denying the Second Amendment Rights of law-abiding citizens ensure that criminals won't have guns??? (assinine question, I know).
I can buy a hot gun on any one of a hundred street corners in 30 minutes of request. Criminals can get all the guns they want. Just about anywhere.
The leftists get it. You don't see the big picture yet.
Criminals don't care what the government does. They could care less if the government passes laws that retro-actively raise your taxes, take effective control of private property with out of control enviromental regulations, forbid any expression of the Christian religion in public, but cater to other religions.
Criminals live for today. All they care about is having enough money to buy drugs, drink and women. Criminals would never organize and mount a challenge to growing governmental abuses. But, a moral people would.
The leftists have plans for you, and you being able to defend yourself from their plans disturbs them.
Why are we still free...the Second Amendment to the Constitution of these here United States, and the dedication of the People there in to use their God given right to defend, and preserve their rights, their Republic, and their families. Take the second from us and everything falls to the slavemaster. I won't live that way, I don't know about you.
