People love their guns. They adore their guns. They get extraordinarily paranoid if someone mentions gun control. They believe that it's "liberals" thinly veiled attempt at "absolute control" when anyone mentions gun safety. Why would someone be wearing a lapel pin showing their support for a law from 200 years ago? It is a very strange obsession. Any time one brings up a very reasoned argument for gun control, gun enthusiasts and "Patriots" will argue semantics over fear mongering and the misrepresentation of gun types. Newsflash, it doesn't matter what you classify them as (see previous posts). An AR-15 is just, if not more deadly than an M16. One may not be classified as an assault rifle, but who gives a damn what the hell it's classified as?

I hate it when people use this in an arguement to defend guns. They don't even use it right. It's not just " The right to bear arms" it is " The right to bear arms in a well regulated militia". It doesn't actually constitute one persons rights to guns. The average Joe blow is not part of a regulated militia.
