'MY' 'freedom' to play with dangerous toys vs. YOUR child's life and safety.
Is THAT the 'tradeoff' gun owners, the NRA, and the 21st Century Sandra-Day-O'Connor-Bush-tilted-USSC have forced America to accept? Despite hundreds of years of history and jurisprucence that said there was no individual Constitutional right to own dangerous weapons?
A few "recreational" gun enthusiasts' "freedom"--out of harm's way behind the trigger-- suddenly justifies continual fear of death and mayhem for everyone else and their children?
Suddenly there's an individual "Second Amendment Right" to own military-style assault weapons and 100-round drum magazines?
WHAT'S YOUR OPINION? How can this outrageous upending of society by a few crazed gun zealots be stopped?
Answers to the question only please. NO NRA talking points.
