    Sure...

    ...but only if people like you don't destroy us, first.


    The government's responsibility IS to protect us from idiocy. That's why we have government.

    Lastly, you do not have the protection from having your firearms regulated. If you want that right... join your state's militia.

      No debate?

      I don't know how anyone like me could destroy us. If you mean pro-rights advocates (that sounds simililar to an abortion slogan) will destroy us, yes, they are murdering us one at a time already (except multi-embryo pregnancies, of course. Would sextuplets be mass murder?). I'm sure you are happy Obama's Mama didn't exercise her so-called right. You are entitled by the rights I think we should be fighting for to voice your opinions as I am. When they are lobbying to remove those Rights the destruction will almost be complete. Either way, no matter who destroys who, death is inevitable for us both. I prefer death than to be controlled by the likes of you, so with any luck I'll be dead by then. Live long and prosper.
