wha? its simple constitionalist = somebody who supports the constitution anti-constitutionalist= somebody who doesnt support the constitution. the only thing being made up is the term "assault weapon" |
perhaps, but "retard" is a word, and we're not allowed to use it where it doesn't apply. this insistence that wanting to limit gun ownership is 'unconstitutional" is a riot becuase the constitution was made in a time when men needed to hunt, where law enforcement barely existed, and when america was under threat of invasion and it was advised that every family had a weapon to protect themselves.
Newsflash: We don't live in that world anymore. While I understand some people will cling to their rights even if they're not needed (and certainly not basic human rights, like the right to chose, or the right to eat, or the right to not be raped silly in a ditch), there comes a time when you really have to understand that the world has changed. We've grown as a culture and as a race. We don't abide by biblical laws anymore, or we'd be stoning people for wearing the wrong clothes.
I'm from Canada, and as a person who HAS the right to a gun, I find it hilarious to see your backwards nation screaming about the right to own a tool for killing. Because that's the problem here. The issue isn't guns, the issue is people who care more about owning and collecting guns than the actual implications of these devices, which are, at their core, tools for killing. That's what a gun is for: killing things. When I hear about someone who fetishizes a gun or makes a big hooplah out of it, I don't see someone who just wants to protect their family, I see someone clinging to archaic beliefs who cares more about their own rights and entitlements than the betterment of the whole. Capitalists, Republicans, Traditionalists, they're all code for "I'm selfish and care more about myself than others."
Guns aren't the problem. americans who fetishize guns are the problem.
so you go fight your battle. You go massage your revolver barrel and sleep with it at night. me? I'll be busy helping others in a nation that isn't gun crazy.
