Against total gun control

America, I think, has decided that they love guns. That leads to shootings, and that's tragic, but I don't think that Americans as a whole want to reject guns from their lives.

We should copy the rest of the world for gun restrictions. They don't have mass shootings, why can't we.

Dangerous things

I like that we have laws affirming a right to own dangerous objects. I wish that were a more widespread standard - It's a kind of right to privacy. I don't want the government knowing enough about what I own to interfere.

Maximum ownership

I think the maximum number of guns it is reasonable to own is 1x handgun and 1x rifle. Beyond that is excessive.
