craig_eddywrote Does that right (which I fully support) extend to minors? I'm unclear on that.

Arthalion wrote No, the right to bear arms doesn't extend to minors.

yankeegirl wrote it Seems prudent to restrict firearms in some places.

not having that right extend to minors has got minors murdered. even minors have the inalienable right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness and if they have the inalienable right to life they have the right to defend their life by any means necessary click the link

Perhaps, but I'd wager that it's saved far more than it's killed. As someone else pointed out in this thread, I really don't want a bunch of 15 year old Suerenos and Nortenos packing heat at school and having shootouts in the quad at lunchtime. How many fistfights would escalate into something far worse if the losing side had a gun on him? Kids are too emotional and simply aren't mature enough to carry firearms everywhere with them. Even if yours is, would you really want him going to school with the 16 year old gangbanger down the street with a chip on his shoulder and his eyes on your kids girlfriend?
