In reply to the discussion: Angry White American Man [View all]Duckhunter935
(16,974 posts)32. I stopped here at this gem of selective information
The wise wise heads on the Supreme Court have determined that by birth, every American is given the right to own a loaded handgun. I don't think they made the leap to "handguns are not dangerous."
They also said there could be limits and people could rightly be prohibited and lose that right to own a firearm. Firearm ownership can also be limited in scope, It is not legal unless you have a special license to own a short barreled shotgun or rifle, machine gun or noise suppressor.
No one says firearms can not do harm, that is what they are designed to do. They function as designed and can be very safe if the proper rules are followed. They should be treated with the utmost respect at all times.

MLK also had armed body guards. Would you have had him arrested if he entered your class?

Yeah. Those militant atheists sure do get out of hand from time to time.
