Regardless of your position on gun control, I don’t see how anyone can honestly believe “citizens should have a right to bear arms” and “possession of a firearm alone should be enough cause for police to instantly kill you” can coexist as rules. It just makes no sense.

At some point we’re going to have to take the extra step of acknowledging that the stated rules are riddled with unstated assumptions, and change can only happen by stating them aloud and then stripping them out.
