| Message | Sorry, i don't want any legal weapon to be concealable with or without license. Getting a license isn't that hard, therefore, I disagree. |

| Message | (1) If the Gov't requires the citizens to get a LICENSE to purchase a gun or weapon, then they can easily CONFISCATE those weapons. The original purpose of the "2nd Amendment" was to enable the populace to be ARMED so if your opposition party that was President (say if it was for me, for instance) declared himself KING, the people can override that tyrannical government. Now, how can the people do so if the Gov't confiscates their weapons??? (2) Yes, guns may make it "easier" to kill people, BUT the question "WHO will still disobey this law???" If criminals ALREADY show disregard for the law, they will just simply disregard THIS law. As result, it is only the LAW-ABIDING citizens that will not be armed thus making the people hostage to the criminals. the abolition of guns will make guns disappear the way Prohibition made alcohol disappear!!!! |
