But I'm also of the view that there are limits on those rights. Just as you can't falsely shout fire in a crowded movie theater, you can put restrictions on who can own guns and how, when, and where they may be possessed.

This is a stupid argument. You CAN yell fire in a movie theatre. If there is no fire you will be prosecuted AFTER the crime. Chuckie wants gun owners persecuted because they MIGHT commit a crime, and that is an infringement on the 2nd Amendment.

Exactly! How many laws do we have to prevent people from yelling "fire" in a crowded theater? Do we have a seven day waiting period before going to the theater? Do we have to go to our local police department to fill out forms for a permit to attend the theater? Are certain plays banned because they might incite people to yell "fire"?

It's pathetic that this false analogy is so widely used. HCI, MMM, and Rosie O'Donnell are just a few who have relied on it to support gun control.
