Reply #5: Sure, you can have my handgun

[TallahasseeGrannie]

but I'll just hold onto my sawed off shotgun, okay?

You know, I'm not a big gun person. I don't own one and never have (the above question was my attempt at a joke) but this doesn't sit right with me. I thought we had a right to bear arms.

And boy, we need it right now. An unarmed populace is a sitting duck for a coup, for fascism, for all of that really, really scary stuff.

If we can have referendums that negate articles of the constitution, doesn't that open a whole big can of worms?

And you mean to tell me that the Mayor and councilmen of that city don't have bodyguards that carry handguns? How are they going to enforce this?
