It might be because during national emergencies that it is much easier and faster to field a fighting force. More trainers to educate people in the Art of War. One of the things that ensures a force ready to go to war in a timely manner is the Second Amendment.<br />With large numbers of people knowing how to hunt, shot and handle weapons safely and effectively the country is far more capable of meeting its responsibilities to protect its citizens. Anything that interferes with the "Right to bear arms" makes us less capable in meeting the exigencies of life and leads to far more people dying, both civilian and military in the early part of wars. Also it can lead to defeat and slavery.<br />What these young people do not understand is the global importance of long term thinking vice short term harm to all of us. They are in essences placing a target on all of us in order to feel safe. The crime rate has gone down as the number of guns has gone up. One of the groups of people they are aiding and abetting are criminals and those who would like to control others. IF those who would control us and the criminal element needs not fear our ability to protect ourselves then home invasions, car jacking, et al become much safer to accomplish.<br />Because in many cases these people's frontal lobe has not matured sufficiently to see the ultimate damage this will inflict on all of us they are dangerous to themselves and every other law abiding person in this country. Feelings and safe spaces are nice, but do nothing to solve problems. Laws are of little affect if they are not enforced.<br />Again, a growing number of people who have guns and know how to use them adds exponentially to our safety and security as a nation. Every enemy we have or could have are applauding these people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-76022469959340948942018-03-25T19:42:21.240-07:002018-03-25T19:42:21.240-07:00The only real differences between an AR-15 and a s...The only real differences between an AR-15 and a semiautomatic rifle of another caliber is caliber and plastic instead of wood.

But fighting to reduce teen access to guns, and raising the legal age of gun ownership or purchase to 21, (and banning AR15 to anyone) that seems more like prudence from people who don't see the need for the power of mass murder for adulthood.<br /><br />Of course psychology has long taught us that people want what they can't have, and the popularity of AR15 are in part because they were banned for a decade. And as we see in this mad world, the more the state says there should be limits to the first amendment, people will vote with their credit cards, and buy their 78th gun, just in case it is banned next week. If Hillary was president, gun manufacturers wouldn't be discounting their guns, but selling at a high premium. No one bet Trump would win.Ares Olympushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726811306826601686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-84114606120248523182018-03-25T15:26:51.302-07:002018-03-25T15:26:51.302-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Ares Olympushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726811306826601686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-66476497343569978412018-03-25T07:59:14.412-07:002018-03-25T07:59:14.412-07:00I have often said, if the children are so wise, wh...I have often said, if the children are so wise, why do we have a 2 tiered legal system?
