Reasonable Restrcitions.

Here's an article someone posted about "reasonable restrictions" on gun ownership. I think it would apply to ammo as well. The author is against it and does a nice job of articulating why. I concur (both on guns and ammo).

I agree. I don't think exercising ones right should be eroded by "reasonable" restrictions. Bad guys will always have guns and ammo so why should I be left to defend myself and my family with a baseball bat of a 9 iron because it is reasonable to restrict firearms and ammo.

"I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence ... I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy."

"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms."

"I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery."

What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms."
