"Like" is not the same as "have no issue with". II don't see a metal object as scary. I see people as potential threats. That is from a long history of seeing people at their worst. What I don't want is someone's rights being violated (and yes I see firearm ownership as an extension of a natural right) on the off chance something might happen. With rights comes responsibility though. Anyone that wants to carry in a school should have extensive training, and as far as I have can tell no one is objecting to required training.
You are entitled to your opinion but having teenagers, who go through puberty and all ups and downs that come with that, carrying a gun seems like a terrible idea.
You say you have a long history of seeing people at their worst. Well I hear you and those people should not have the right to own a firearm at all imo.
You say people have the natural right to own one. Do you think all and everybody should have that right? Or can that right be taken away from you?
