You wouldn't need a gun to protect yourself, if our society wasn't so thoroughly flushed with violence, if everyone wasn't able to just get a gun, like it's a human right.
Never mind access to the Internet, why should you have access to something that will help you better yourself?
Never mind clean air and water, why should people expect to be free from disease causing pathogens, to a healthy life?
Never mind being able to live in peace, you should have to look over your shoulder constantly, you should live like our ancestors, terrified something, or someone is going to kill you at any moment!
Or we could be reasonable, and try not to live like cavemen.

In response to the "Guns don't kill people, 2nd amendment rights, mental health, and It's a government conspiracy to take our guns!"
In response to the "Guns don't kill people, 2nd amendment rights, mental health, and It's a government conspiracy to take our guns!" arguments. I have this, rambling irritated nonsense to say-
You're right! The issue isn't with guns, it's with people! But guns are used to commit these crimes, to commit mass shootings, to remove human lives. There is nothing wrong, with reasonable restrictions on gun sales, with real background checks, with preventing the deranged from getting weapons.
What? You agree?
Well, why do you keep supporting GOP members, why do you keep supporting men like Trump, who claim to want to take action- but never do! They claim to want to stop these things, but never do anything about it, and never make any suggestions, except for empty platitudes, in an attempt to distract from the issues.
If you really believe mental illness is the issue, then why haven't you passed a Single Payer healthcare bill, that at the very least, insures free access to mental healthcare? Started a campaign to get people to seek help if they are feeling violent, if they find themselves in a downward spiral.
Do something, other than simply claiming guns are not the problem, sick people are, without actually taking action!
If you are not going to take action, then stop pretending to care, go back to your golf course, enjoy your NRA money, and enjoy listening to the bodycout rise higher & higher.
