Man o man, the AR-15 is a pretty gun.

Anyway. As a fine upstanding liberal-minded young man, I support my good ole bill of rights...and gee whizz, what's that right after my freedom of speech, peaceable assembly, press, and religion?

The right to bear arms. Not "pistols." Not "rifles." "Arms."

To me, that includes everything except bombs. If I can afford it, and it's purpose is self-defense, there should not be a law preventing me from having it, though I'm okay with the government registering my name to the serial number of the weapon I purchase.

I'm not an advocate of the "wouldn't it be great if everyone had a gun" philosophy found here in Kentucky...but I do not support any legislation to limit the firearms or ammunition clips I can posess. What I DO support is teaching children about gun safety at a fairly young age, say ten or so. Knowledge like that can save as many lives as these gun laws claim to do.
