You took that Guliani statement totally out of context, and of course ignored my questions.

Think about society at its base or core. Without any rules of man. Nature takes over. Springer-style, with one person kiling another. Like animals.

Humans create law, authority, "the man." That authority, where there are consequences to your action (jail, the death penalty (which Rudy supports), etc) and you're going to think twice before commiting a crime.

Are you truly "Free" in the original state of nature, no. Because your person, your property can be taken just because some other guy wants to.

But how about when you start to enact laws to protect you and your property and have people held accountable for trangessions when another violates those laws.

Then you are free. You can buy property, have an expectation of being safe, say what you want to say (within reason), engage in political discord.

As far as gun control goes. Just about every stupid liberal nimwit in NYC is for gun control. Rudy needed to get elected by a majority of these dumb nitwits. What do you expect him to say?

The truth?
While he was the “Republican Mayor” of New York City he appointed more than 60 men and women to the Civil, Criminal, and Family Court benchs. In all of those judicial appointment not one of them was a Republican.

All of his judical appointments were either registered Liberals or registered Democrats. As the “Republican Mayor” he had appointment power over more than 70 full commissioners in more than 50 City agencies, yet at no time during his administration did REPUBLICANS account for more than 10% of those appointments.

He even appointed Chuck Schumers wife as the City’s Department of Transportation Commissioner.

“And even as we grieve for those who lost their lives, and our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and their loved ones, we may be able to find some sort of meaning in this tragedy by using it as a catalyst to revive national gun control efforts.”
Rudolph Giuliani

Instead he became a liberal gungrabber. And an abortion on demand type. A RINO.
