What makes you a more free person? Much smaller risk of death and suicide or owning guns? Lol
Being able to choose either of those myself is unarguably the freest. The real question is the conflicting rights. If the right to own guns is conflicting with the right to life liberty and the persuit of happiness then we need to find a resolution. Legally speaking when two rights collide like this the they typically try and preserve as much of both rights as possible. Thats not what every gun control advocate wants though. Everyone has a different version of how it should shake out.
Seriously. Guns = freedom? That's a scary fucking take.
It's obvious to anyone that having the right to defend yourself is a form of freedom, if you think about it for 5 seconds
Ooh, right into insulting my intelligence!
