Big corporations and our government believe spying on the public is normal. While privacy advocates warn officials of the dangers of accessing large amounts of personal and health information. Our President has used his authority to order wiretaps on many citizens, while ignoring the public outcry.

Anybody with a record has a very hard time getting a gun. Law enforcers agree more on the right to bear arms rather than having our guns taken away. Taking them away does in fact take away our second amendment. Half of all suicides are from guns as well as 70% of all murders.

This article points out quite a few reasons on why we should keep our guns. Some of the arguments are strong but the one about Jesus was a little ridiculous.
