    The argument over gun control isn't merely about safety. It's about identity.https://usat.ly/2yHYrwh

        The Founding Fathers gave us the right to own muskets. Automatic weapons in civilian hands is unnecessary. One rifle per person should be it

        Using that logic, freedom of speech only applies to the spoken word & letters written with a quill pen and delivered on horseback. Freedom of the press only applies to town criers and newspapers that are created using a manual printing press.

        Identity... LOL ... Another load of crap from USA Today. Youre batting 1000 today. 'When the people fear the government there is tyranny, but when the government fears the people there is liberty.'
