Are you willing to bet your freedoms on your opinion or on her voting record?

I can't buy a gun at home. This doesnt make me a slave to the state, send me into the dark ages, or take away any personal freedoms.

It takes away your freedom to purchase a gun. As per the second amendment, we have the right to bear arms:
-
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
-
Any attempt to regulate the ownership of arms would seem to infringe on that right and would therefore violate the Second Amendment.

Here in lies the problem with an international forum. Tchocky lives in Europe, and does not have the same liberties or rights that those of us in the US share.
His experience does not allow for the bearing of arms as a hedge against a government as the enemy. Perhaps if it had been so the world would have been spared that dictator Adolf Hitler. Unfortunately they have not learned the lesson and probably never will.
