There just isn't any neat and easy way to do this.
The court systems will always have some level of uncertainty, else we would never have need of an appeal system. Some people will change for the better for their experience, some will not. Some will get worse. Who then is given the task to rule over the hidden recesses of our minds and determine for us if we are to be trusted or not with the means to defend ourselves.
I cannot do otherwise than to err on the side of liberty and live with the consequences that a few will abuse those rights. So I must vote yes.
And it is a rigged poll, interesting thought though.

It is not an inalienable right, otherwise it wouldn't be in the Bill of Rights. And as unlikely as it is, it could be stripped away, though not by the "government" but by a national vote (like prohibition was added and then revoked).
This I absolutely must disagree with. The BOR is not a list of rights granted, but rather a recognition of rights held by the people that no government, including that framed by our Constitution, can infringe. The exercise of those rights might be taken away, but the right itself is inborn and nothing can remove it. When the free exercise of those rights are removed, then the people so oppressed will find ways to exercise them, and a revolution will no doubt be swift in following. Thankfully our government was framed in such a way as to allow changes to be made through peaceable actions foremost, but with a final option that cannot be denied.
If people truely believe that every aspect of their existence is given to them solely through the sanction of government, then they are a people lost.
