If the Constituton was followed completely, the DMV woudl cease to exist and the ATF would be transformed into a chain of convenience stores.
YMMV.
One doesn't have to carry, just have it available for use in a dire emergency in a split second.
Do you believe that ex-felons and others should be denied the right to keep and carry arms? (GIven that this was the situation in the US for much of its history, given that ex-felons who want guns to commit crimes will get them anyway, given that legal ownership comes with responsibilities, given that this is the BIG wedge into denial or delay of possession through things like "background checks"?)
What's a firearm and can it be used as a tool of self defense if need be?
Dire emergency? It’s a tool not an ambulance!
Here in Tx we use them to open cans of beans and such ;)
I’m not Greek, but I’m still a hoplite. Heavy armored foot...
