Precisely right, and until all of the Bill of Rights return to its rightful place in the Constitution, and the Constitution returns to its rightful place as the foundation of liberty, we will continue to mourn the dearly disarmed, who have been place in those difficult situations requiring that which is enumerated in the Constitution and a gift of our creator, but sadly lacking at the moment of need.
The dearly departed couldn't, wouldn't, or were not able because of the numerous anti-gun, knife, etc, rules place it our way. After all how many do you know who are willing to be a walking felon just for the sake of a little personal protection, which as we see, is not personal alone, but could be a saving instrument for all who happened to be threatened at a particular time.
