  • "The debate is over which force will keep evil at bay — the State or an armed citizenry. People rightly fear empowering the State to control more aspects of their lives. But if they want to avoid that outcome, they should remember the importance of the moral issue."

    I always knew it was about morals, but I never thought of it as a debate between Police State vs Armed Citizenry, that makes it really clear and explains a lot about the idiocy of American Politics;  debates are so often "framed" to avoid the real issue.
