164. I think I agree with you
Without the 2nd, how would you protect the 1st?

I'm not a hunter. I own firearms for target shooting, self defense, and the off chance me or my family would need them for protection against a tyrannical government.

Politicos are far too sly to wholly remove constitutional rights, instead they chip away, piece by piece, until they are no more. Sheeple don't care, American Idol's on tonight.

I absolutely cannot fathom why Feinstein et al insist on taking away the right to bear arms. It is simply illogical to deduce that taking firearms away from law-abiding citizens would reduce crime. Numerous studies have been conducted that show just the opposite. I'm left to assume that their motive is one of personal irrational fear and/or the appearance of "doing something" for their constituency.
