I'll ask again what type of crime do you think someone should lose their 2A rights for committing? Do you think convicted murders and rapists should retain their 2A rights? I think we're all in agreement for 2A consequences for violent crimes. What I specifically oppose is explicitly tying the law to a loosely related right - it's a slippery slope - especially since violating this class of law already results in some form of 2A penalty. Fundamentally it's just another example of encroachment by anti-2A forces - that somehow explicitly taking away 2A rights will make us all safer - which we know is not their ultimate goal. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's called Incrementalism.... some here seem to be OK with that..... until they aren't,..... but at that point, it's too late. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
