My post will not get Jenny Price's attention because I will not call her names.

Her argument that the Second Amendment is not an individual right can be taken further to mean that the First Amendment is not an individual right, but a collective right given by government permission only.

Her brother's murder is regrettable, however, since California already has some of the strictest firearm laws in the nation, would it not make sense that it should have some of the lowest homocide rates?

Facts are an annoyance to those with an agenda.

Firearm deaths are decreasing as the ability to carry firearms is increasing.

Tougher prosecutions of criminals is another factor leading to a declining homocide rate.

Unfortunately, increasing the number of citizens carrying firearms and tougher punishment of criminals are views held by conservatives....another demonstration that conservative principles work and liberal principles (gun control, criminal rehabilitation) do not work.

Jenny Price must ignore reality to continue her joust with windmills.

I guess that since the colonists/early Americans owned cannons but not 9 mm handguns, she wouldn't have a problem with me getting a cannon, eh?
