So the government can be used as weapon against disfavored groups? You don't say. I'm glad you recognize the need, from the very beginnings of this country, that we must keep the government in check to prevent it's perversion for nefarious purposes against minority groups including the tiniest majority of all, the individual.

I agree, but I don't think efforts to keep guns out of the hands of the insane need be abandoned because of the possibility of government overreach.

Btw, Trump IS government now, and has a history sordid enough to warrant investigation, including what's happened since he started campaigning for the presidency. Painting him as a victim of government persecution is hilarious.
