But logic has nothing to do with the issue of gun control. It is a RELIGIOUS ISSUE, just like 
abortion. The people who support gun control believe that guns are morally wrong, and any issues 
they bring up are generally just used to make gun control acceptable to those who do not share 
their religious views. Just like anti-abortions use parental right to now, or protecting the 
health of women. 

The unfortunate trend in a modern industrial socialist state is to ALWAYS reduce freedom, and 
even conservatives are supporting gun control (Every republican president and ex-president has 
endrosed the HCI platforms).

The right of the State to regulate behavior for the best interests of society has always over 
ridden the constitution. How many people really support the idea of the Bill of Rights? Very 
few. Look how popular censorship is.

Any elected offical who supports more freedom is label an extremist or a crazy. 

Singapore and China are the models for the future US. A sociality where everyone is free to be 
productive citizens and consumers. You have the right to express any views with the accepted two 
party framework. You have a right to privacy as long as it does not hinder law enforcement. You 
have a freedom to believe in any IRS approved religion with a 403 certification.
