"Thankfully, we have a U.S. Constitution and state constitutions, which delineate rights that are not eligible to be 'banned' or 'voted away'. My right to possess and employ deadly force in self-defense is not subject to the whims of hand-wringing ninny's."
No ninny's but your Constitutional Right means nothing. Just ask the Mayor of Chicago, Oak Park and Wilmette to name a few.
I'll add that a Constitution or a Nation's Law means little today.
If someone who is up on Current Events and is an avid reader of the Free Republic disagrees, I've got to worry.
Voters pass a Proposition or bill; Judge rules Unconstitutional.
The public wants immigration laws enforced; Pols laugh and just keep taking $$$ from Business Lobby.
Man shoots an armed robber; County Atty charges homeowner with unlawful use of weapon or unregistered firearm.
Until Pols start to have a healthy fear of the Voter, it will get worse and more brazen.
