And what I'm not seeing is any reason why you think that is so.
The chart stands. The Founding Fathers knew what they meant by a well-regulated militia.
They did not mean every shithead walking around blasting whatever the fuck he felt like.
And . . . again . . . I am not advocating every shithead walking around, blah, blah, blah. That is also not reality, but a version of reality that would suit the argument you are making.
Wow, someone actually asked for a reason instead of bringing up the NRA. Because there are a lot of responsible people out there who own guns that are under constant lock and key. Those people can use those guns for hunting, self defense, just in case, whatever the fuck they want. Why? Because they are responsible, not the one in who the fuck knows how many thousand or even million that go off and commit a gun crime. Note that I say crime. Saying "such and such number of people are shot" does not even come close to telling me how many of them were shot illegally.

It's not even close to that bad. Min and I are always vitriolic and, as for everyone else, that aren't being nearly as bad as some other threads. Why do you care?
