The short of the long is this,
I will try to paraphrase...
''If the government, who is supposed to insure our security, because that is what we pay them for, would do their jobs and forcefully take all the guns from everyone, then we would all be that much safer and we wouldn't have to worry about some nut shooting a bunch of people!''
I had some basic answers, but I was at a total loss considering that she was right (in her mind) regardless of my answers.
Is there anything I could have said that would stopped her in her tracks.
I told her that SCOTUS declared that we have no ''right'' to individual protection.
I told her that the 4A protects the innocent from ''evil'' searches and siezures.
I said that the 2A isn't about the ability to go and kill without justification and was actually aimed at preventing government tyranny (which she seems to favor).
Is there anything that I can add to my arguements that will at least make her rethink her fascist ideas about what it takes to make our country a safer place for all of us, especially those who think gun owners are evil and deserve to have our doors kicked in at risk of death to ourselves and families?
