"the false idea that it (the 2nd Amendment) provides more self protection than it creates deaths due to use in acts of violence"

Where is your research to back up your incorrect view, rich? How does the 2nd amendment "create death" rich? I think you really know that it is hoplessness and despair caused by poverty and the wreckless behavior of men who will abandon their responsibilities as fathers and members of the community that cause PEOPLE to kill each other. No matter how cliche the saying is, it is flat out true that guns do not kill people, people kill people.

It is the outrageous behavior in the ghettos that is caused by the liberal politics that says these people cannot make it without a government handout. They have no hope because they are sold on the ideas spread by the Jesse Jacksons of the world that they have no chance. Instead of attacking the issues that cause people to shoot each other, you attack the instrement they do it with, and the folks who CORRECTLY believe that it is ok to defend yourself, per our constitution. You could give a rat's ass about the real issues that cause this behavior as long as you can attack the honest folks in this country who believe the founding fathers knew a thing or two about setting up a government for the people and by the people.

It absolutely proves that you do not care about the underlying issues imo.
