In fact there are four points that both sides of the debate actually believe in. These are; 1) the right to self-defense, 2) the right to hunt, 3) universal background checks for all firearm sales and transfers, 4) that those who are felons and those who have a mental illness that make them a danger to themselves or others should not have the right to own a firearm. Here is the beginning of a possible solution, with just one more hurdle to overcome. That is the idea of assault weapons.
Ed.: Um, no. Speak for yourself. You cannot treat the right to keep and bear arms as a government privilege and still credibly 'support the Second Amendment'. |

Really?
There are those on the antigunner side who actually DO NOT believe in the right to self defense.
DO NOT believe you have the right to hunt.
-And-
There are progunners, like me, who do not believe in universal background checks, because it will only encumbered the honest people and WILL NOT stop criminals. |

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
