Does Presidential Cowardice Invalidate 2nd Amendment Rights?
There has been a lot of talk lately about the number of people at presidential town halls who have been armed. I believe that this is a direct result of Presidential cowardice to face his critics when they are armed. The second amendment grants us all the right to bear arms and the President should not be able to infringe on this. The vast majority of gun owners are law abiding citizens and it’s only the John Hinkleys, Lee Harvey Oswalds, John Wilkes Booths, and Charles Guiteaus that give gun owners a bad name. Let’s not paint all gun owners with a broad brush simply because of James Earl Ray, Sirhan Sirhan, Giuseppe Zangara, and Leon Czolgosz. Gunmen like this were not playing with a full deck. It’s not like in today’s day and age you have crazy people walking into town halls. While many of our Presidents have been shot at, only 9 of our Presidents have actually been hit. That’s barely one every 5 administrations. The only thing I’d be worried about is that al-qaeda or Hamas militants
