- Unfortunately, our founding fathers were most familiar with flintlocks, guns
- that take 30 seconds at the least to load. Try going to your average
- playground and gunning down children at that rate. "Freedom" my ass. If
- being able to buy semi-automatic rifles without background checks and waiting
- periods is freedom, then we should be able to buy plutonium at gun shops as
- well.
