Hey everyone,
A good friend of mine posts on this site and convinced me to sign up. The posts appear intelligent and I look forward to debating or discussing this issue that all of you hold so highly. A slight introduction before I get to my main question. You may remember me. P12 has bashed some of my columns openly on this site, posted my letters and what not. Thankfully, the University of Utah is still a gun free campus. I do not believe the Second Amendment protects the right of gun owners to own handguns, however, I am not as crazy and leftist to say that gun control laws are up to par or even plausible for that matter. I own a handgun, a Bersa Thunder .380 ACP. I bought it to see if I actually felt sfaer carrying it, and I do. With this in mind, I read a column by a gun toting advocate who said leftists (like me) don't deserve to carry handguns because they don't uphold the rights associated with them. I completely disagree, however, wanted to see what you guys thought.
