There are only THREE countries in the world that believe their people have some kind of inherent right to own firearms -- Mexico, Guatemala, and the United States of America (Max Fisher and Josh Keller, writing in the NYT). You want a gun, you get a gun. It doesn't matter if you are a good man, a bad man, a crazy man, a misogynist, a racist, a fascist, a right-wing conspiracy nut, an abuser, someone who hears voices telling him to kill, someone who's irate that his girlfriend wants a divorce, someone who just got fired, someone who wants to end their crushing depression, someone who likes to get high on meth...etc. etc. etc. As long as that is how we do it, then nobody in this country is safe.
