    In that corps have some right to speech and other limited rights? Sure. I can't help it if we follow entity theory.


    Where did I say guns are people? Guns are tools, tools are owned and used by people. People commit crimes. When they do, you punish them. You do not punish people who do not commit crimes for the crimes of those who do.

    I know that's sarcasm, but that's literally the situation in the UK.

    No, I'm saying we all live in a society, and there are laws and rules and regulations to keep everyone in line, and all of us law abiding citizens sometimes have to make sacrifices in regard to our "freedom" because of bad people or bad things. It's normal, it happens all the time.

    Problem solved. Thanks for asking.

    What do "rational countries" like NZ do when Daryl Jones and Christopher Havard join al-qaeda?

    Nothing, apparently.

    You compared it to the airport dude. You compared being in my home to air travel. That's on the internet forever.

    You're missing the point. (Where in what I was replying to was reference to anyone's home, btw?)

    What is the point of ANY law? They all are based on what bad people do. You can't do whatever you want just because you're in your home or anywhere else. There are laws for everything....because people do things that society deems bad....hence LAWS.

    So you don't believe in justice, the law, or the Constitution. Imagine that!

    We have trials to determine IF someone is guilty. It isn't just for show.

    That is incredibly wrong, as a statement.

    By your conception all laws are malum prohibitum laws. Things like prohibitions against Jay walking. Things that are wrong because the law says so, like simple possession.

    I'm talking malum in se, things like prohibitions against rape or theft or murder. Things that are wrong intrinsically. That is not punishing the innocent for the deeds of the guilty, that is simply punishing the guilty.

    To take a right away, one needs more than "because I say so" one needs to show that the conduct barred is intrinsically wrong. Owning a weapon is not intrinsically wrong, nor is using it.

    I believe it was when a British terrorist got on a plane in France.

    Scotus disagrees with you depending on the weapon and who is using it

    Emperor Gavin Newsom just let 737 killers off death row. Not carrying out their sentences is an injustice.

    I believe in due process, the law, and the Constitution. None of them say you get endless appeals and delays until you die of old age.

    At least enforce the laws enacted democratically by the voters of California.
