My friend told me he didn’t want to get a concealed carry license because that might put him on a government list. I had to think for a minute before I said anything.
My friend has strong political beliefs. He should probably stop donating to politicians if he wants to stay off a government list. My friend should probably stop donating to his church. Maybe he should turn in his guns too.
I do have a question for him. Let us say he, and millions of others, did all these things. Does that make us safer.. or are we at a greater risk of our government abusing its power?
What do you think? I'm asking for a friend. |

| Just a few years ago, to get a carry license in Cali, one had to list the serial number of those handguns. You bet I didn't want to be on that list. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
