Keep up with that backpedaling, it's pretty amusing honestly.

 

Let me ask you something: Why do you love restricting and giving up your own constitutional rights? In any event, I really do think Jefferson said it best: "The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."
