A rational solution would be to recognize a citizen's right to keep and bear arms and balance it with the part of the Declaration of Independence that recognizes the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Having a right to bear arms has to be measured against the rights of those who worry about their happiness. Many of us are so concerned about all the guns in America that it is very difficult to be happy.
Ed.: Now the antis are inventing a right to be happy! |

The Declaration of Independence is not the Constitution.
The Constitution trumps the Declaration of Independence every time. |

You're entitled to PURSUE happiness.
If you think violating MY rights will make you happy, you aren't entitled to have that happiness granted to you. |

Rights don'tget "balanced."
Besides which, the RKBA is more often a positive benefit. Depriving us of them would result in more violence and crime.
How do you "balance" that against life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
This is absurd poppy cocktail masquerading as reasoned thinking.
It ought to be quashed where ever found! |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
