re: #173 dangerman

left and right: a broad interpretation of the 2nd amendment with draconian consequences for failure to control your weapons at all times

So guns ok, but if you say leave them loaded around kids, see ya later guns? My position with guns is this: I’m fine with a handgun, shotgun, or rifle for home protection, hunting, recreational shooting, but I lose it when I see someone need a fucking arsenal that rivals a platoon’s. I also don’t believe in open carry and I believe businesses have a right to ban guns from their premises and I believe they in fact should be banned from all places of business for the most part. I’m more sympathetic to closed carry as long as you prove you don’t have a history of violence towards yourself or others. I want us to look at what’s worked in other countries where personal gun ownership remains high but gun violence remains low.
