Gregory Gibson’s son was killed in 1992 during a shooting at Bard College at Simon’s Rock in Great Barrington, Mass. In 2014, after decades of work with gun violence prevention groups, Mr. Gibson bought a 9-millimeter Sig Sauer P320 and began learning to shoot. In the essay “A Gun Killed My Son. So Why Do I Want to Own One?” Mr. Gibson walks readers down his path to becoming a gun owner and his quest for clarity in the debate around guns in America. |

I sympathize with Mr. Gibson, but by my lights he's too 'reasonable' in his exchanges with obviously misguided people (undoubtedly Democrats).
Fundamental rights are unalienable. Bearing arms is a fundamental right.

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
