Quote:sure I am, so long as they don't harm others. I don't agree with homosexuality but I support same sex marriage. I don't agree with the use of narcotics but support ending narcotic prohibition. I don't agree with prostitution, but support ending laws about sex for profit. 

 

Life and property is the core of governments role, all the authority given to government in the constitution is an extension of the protection of it's citizens life and property (be it physical property, intellectual property, personal property and so on). That was the core foundation of our nation, over the years it's been extended and grown to become much more then that, but at it's core government is only supposed to protect life and property.

 

But you are making a law and one that doesn't allow everyone to be free.  If you make one law then there will be more that follow.  It isn't as simple as you seem to be making it.  Extremely complicated with all kinds of negative ramifications with what you are wanting.  

 

So does freedom mean we should be allowed to own any weapon we want?  You making laws for that to?  Is your only law you can't harm others?  What about drinking and driving?  Technically you may not hurt anyone by doing so.  Is that a law to?
