| An armed society is a secure society. It is as an armed society that we established the original colonies, crossed a continent, and tamed a wilderness. Back when every man owned a gun, there was lots of risk taking, for example, the Revolutionary War, the exploration of the West, the Gold Rush. There was lots of creativity, for example, the development of a native literature: Fenimore Cooper, Washington Irving, Edgar Allen Poe, Herman Melville, Mark Twain. Your comments, as usual, are unsubstantiated, baseless, and a mere reflection of prejudice. And I have never even owned a gun......... |
