That isn’t a right to life. It’s an entitlement to enslave.
A right to life means no one may kill you. It doesn’t mean others can be forced to feed, house, or sustain you.

You’ve created an obligation imposed on others by force.

― Robert H. Jackson, associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court in
West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette

-Judge Andrew Napolitano

– Louis vil LeGun

Expecting a carjacker or rapist or drug pusher to care that his possession or use of a gun is unlawful is like expecting a terrorist to care that his car bomb is taking up two parking spaces. – Joseph T. Chew

“There are people calling for the banning of assault weapons who could not define an ‘assault weapon’ if their life depended on it. Yet the ignorant expect others to take them seriously.” — Thomas Sowell
