This is the crux of the Second Amendment -- Charles, Paradise
I say hmmm — I like it a lot. It has been an observation that those of substance (love vs. emotion, truth vs. P.C./theocratic perspective, knowledge vs. information, etc.) need fewer controls while those without such substance live in a chaos they can't get enough controls (over self and others). In that substance, small family ranchers care for their animals more than P.C. veterinarians, gun owners have a reverence for life more than those that require domination over others, etc. AND; that all humanity had the fortitude to abide liberty, individual sovereignty and inalienable rights in love, truth and knowledge. -- Mike, Norwalk
