This 1 bothered me. I've always believed in gun rights, but I'm beginning to wonder now. In Henry VIII's time, people kept weapons because there was no standing army. That is obviously no longer the case. The question now is, should we still allow it? & if we do, should we limit the variety? I'm not sure. Currently, the only countries w/ more liberal gun laws than ours are Finland & Switzerland, for the maintenance of a militia, since both nations have very small militaries. Obviously, the US, with the 2nd or 3rd largest military in the world, is different.
