Duh ...
“Were you NOT saying “
Correct. I was not saying!
Duh!
Do you believe convicted murderers have the right to carry guns?
“Shall Issue implies Can Revoke.”
Your life can be revoked, also.
You said nothing, contributed nothing, understood nothing...
Are you a convicted murderer?

Surrounded by gun-control opponents heckling him outside the Vermont State House on Wednesday, Gov. Phil Scott (R) signed into law the most restrictive gun-control measures in the states history.
hmmm. Won’t answer my question! Afraid to admit that you consider some restrictions on the right to bear arms?
