Ok sure I'm down for this hypothetical. I will bring 50 random people in front of you, and you will hand all 50 of them loaded guns. Still feeling it?


Ever been to a shooting range? It's basically a bunch of random people with loaded guns.


That's not as random as letting me choose them! They had to be allowed onto the range, show ID, afford the gun, probably do a background check to get the gun unless they used a loophole (which usually requires some social capital).

I'm proposing the true proposal of many guns rights advocates: anyone might have a gun.

So let me choose the 50 and you give them guns! Why not?
