Brilliant.

I have long thought this way but lacked the rhetorical skill to express it. This is exactly how I see the 2nd amendment and with this perhaps I can finally explain my position to a few friends on the other side still capable of rational thought.

The best way to never have to use them is to simply stay armed. I've had that thought for some time, as well.

Hmmm since hammers are so effective, perhaps we should pass a law that the anti-gun zealots have to only use these. That way they could be relieved of the continual stress of bodyguards who area carrying those scary guns. :evil2:
