Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: Questions on gun-control/rights [View all]EdwardBernays
(3,343 posts)47. let me ask you this
        how many people have died from black death in America in the last 200 years?
I'd say America would be a lot safer with black death than with gun nuts... at least there's a cure for it.
As for "due process" - we're saying the same thing. You don't have those rights because the state took them away, via due process. I am suggesting the same method for removing guns. Due process.
It's not a coincidence that I think guns - killer of 30k americans a year - and safety are connected. 
Far more unhappy? So you admit it does happen? A minute ago you said it never happened. I see.
At any rate, at some point Americans will wake up and take away guns... it'll probably take decades - and millions more dead - but it'll happen.

        On your statement about Jefferson: I think you've been somewhat misled about him.
