> The right to drive 200 MPH is also not a Constitutionally-enumerated right.

Neither is using the Internet.

> A person lawfully carrying a gun is statistically far, far safer than someone driving 200 MPH on city streets

Depends on the streets. They don't QUITE hit 200 MPH on some of the straights in the various Grand Prix races around the world, but it isn't for lack of trying.

And who cares anyway? Safety shouldn't determine what makes my freedom!!! If that was so, then the safest course of action would be to get rid of all guns.

You heard it here first, folks. A gun-relgionist is now advocating to have all your Preciouses taken away!

There is nothing at present to suggest dipsydoodle Sep 2012 #1
