following the unfortunate and sad happenings that has happened in newtown do you think the government has the right to dictate who can and cant own guns ? in answering this question you must remember that our fore fathers gave us the right to bear arms including assault weapons so as that we may keep our government in check and if needed to take our country back (another civil war if needed) from a government that is after its own agenda and not our best interests, and if you think they do have the right then who determines exactly who can ? only persons who only has the governments interest in mind ? or the people us ?
