More than half of this country’s population grew up in urban areas where a firearm of any kind was a tool only useful for police and military personnel. Most of that 50% didn’t need a firearm to control varmints, provide food for the table or protect themselves against beast or villain.
Consequently, half of this country knows nothing about fi****ms or their history in founding and protecting this nation…and frankly don’t care to. And, they don’t understand why anyone else would want or need one…or should have any access to one. It means nothing to them, so it should mean nothing to the rest of of us, right? After all we have “switches,” and other electronic devices to entertain us now. And, outdoor sports are harmful, right? Think of all the UV rays out there.
Half of the US Citizenry really knows nothing about the subject at all…except what the Press conveys to them, and we are a gullible folk. The left-leaning Press, have, and are, convincing the naive, slowly but steadily, that fi****ms are as deadly a thing as cancer or “asbestos?” They are not. They never were.
As with every other thing at our arms length, man is capable of abusing it. Evil men, with evil intent kill other people, with all manner of weapons. They have since the founding of the world, and they will continue to until it ends. Robbing the innocent of means to defend themselves on a par with evil men, simply makes everyone a potential, and needless victim. Ask Hi**er, Stalin, Mussolini, or Tojo. Apparently, we are slow learners, and very poor students of history (a subject once taught in schools).
In the end, as someone once famously said, “Only a good man with a gun can stop an evil man with one.” I like this concept better. I’ll pursue this option.
