      .@KevinBuist If a person is a suspected terrorist, then charge him and present evidence. "Potential" is punished only in dystopian novels.

          Gun ownership is a right, not a privilege, so it can’t really be “exploited.” The const. would have to change.

          Voting is a right, but it's still subject to reasonable regulation to ensure that it's not abused.

          I get where you’re coming from, but voting regs are aimed at preventing fraud, not how people exercise rights.

          There are over 300,000,000 privately owned guns in US. At what saturation point do mass shootings get thwarted?
