Funny the gun debate has drawn a lot of attention with the supreme court hearing DC's gun ban this month. Anyone that is aware of my perivous posts on the forum, on other forums, anyone who read my speeches and anyone who has seen my profiles is aware of my support for the second amendment. I am sure if you look, i have expained why too. Currently in the US, 40 states allow CCW as a right since it has reduced crime in every state that considers it as a right. As long as the person is not a felon, crazy or anything else he should be able to own and carry any gun protected by the 2nd amendment. Look at part of my arguement on this link if you care Login | Facebook

Now to the matter of full auto weapons, sawed off shotguns, and heavy machine guns. One those weapons are not illegal, just registered and very expensive since the government runs a monoploy on that part of the gun market. I am against the government stoping the manufacture of these weapons to drive up the price. So i would say it is a right constitutionally protected. Other countries like Israel and the Swiss mandates all citizens own full auto weapons, a side arm and ammo. Those countries also allow citizens to carry weapons like our country with CCW except instead of being limited to just handguns, they can carry full auto rifles.

Puting this debate makes sence in the religion part since in the US gun ownership by millions of gun owners is very much like a religion. Spent the past few days presenting my arguement on facebook during miderms, kinda tired.
