If you ever wondered why firearm owners are occasionally less-than-amused at the continual slings and arrows employed by anti-rights advocates, Joe Huffman has the comprehensive explanation, wrapping it up with:
If other specific enumerated rights were treated like firearms ownership there would likely be riots in the streets. But gun owners haven’t rioted. They haven’t called for the murders of those that insulted them. Yet similar infringement on rights has or would likely cause a major social disruption. And despite remarkably good behavior under some extremely adverse circumstances the instances of gun owners striking out in anger at these abuses is extremely rare. And what do we get for this good behavior despite substantial reasons for being angry? They use that anger as further justification to infringe upon our rights.
But, trust me, you want to read the whole thing… though the people who most need to probably will not.
