61. It is frustrating when the opposition has such little validity.
Why do you want guns?

Because it's my right.

That's debatable. Why do you want them?

So I can defend myself against bad guys. So I can resist tyranny.

But if guns are available, bad guys can shoot you first.

Who is the tyrant you expect to fight? The police? The army? They will overwhelm you with fire.

Bottom line: You want guns because you just do-- for reasons which cannot be adequately justified or explained-- and the cost to society be damned.
