A right that's a massive liability.
What you said is a cute soundbite, but it's not a real argument.

"Few"

Roughly 513k concealed carrys in NC alone. This does not include gun owners as a whole. There are approximately 3 million gun owners in NC alone.
Nice try, but stick to cars.

Fewer than 1/3 of Americans own a gun.
Mar 27, 2018, 5:15 PM

And 3% of the population owns 50% of the guns.

But not weird actually, because that's not how statistics work. It's not anecdotal.

I have lived in NC for close to 50 years and I know quite a few people. I only know one person who has a concealed carry license. And, most people that I normally socialize with do not own a gun. Your numbers seem very high. What's your source? I wouldn't trust NRA data. (The NRA has been known to exaggerate, and to lie. Their sole purpose is to scare people into buying more guns.)

Well what about our 3rd Amendment rights?

Try to reply without looking it up.
And the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are two different things.

Yes, many of us know about not having to shelter soldiers in our house without looking it up. What’s your point? That it’s archaic? Have times changed to the point that we are ok with our house becoming a barracks against our will, or are you making the same point many do with the 2nd, that because it’s beyond their ability to envision a scenario where it is needed, it is now obsolete?
And I don’t know if that last line was an attempt at an academic Nyah-Nyah, but yes the bill of rights (and every other amendment for that matter) are absolutely part and parcel of the Constitution. What do you think is being “amended”?

Why are we comparing the crowds again?

I thought this "March For Our Lives" thing was non-partisan, right? Or are you comparing the crowd sizes because you actually think it's a left-wing thing, since it was organized by left-wing groups that have nothing to do with gun violence?

"It looked like a million-and-a-half people ... it went all the way back to the Washington Monument," Mr Trump said, adding that the media had been caught out and would "pay a big price".

I just thought it would be fun for someone to provoke (small-minded) TheRump into telling more obvious lies. It would be funny, if it wasn't so sad to have such a stupid man thinking he can run the US. But, his days are counting down. He will be impeached in Feb of 2019 -- unless the GOPers find backbones (then it would be sooner). But we know the GOPers won't buck TheRump -- no morals exist in the GOP house members.
