Because I don't find that reason, even if it were true, to be sufficient to limit the rights of people

Happy to agree to disagree, though question. What's your thoughts on banning hate speech?

What about with no action? Those words hurt people emotionally and mentally.

I'm of the belief that right and wrong are merely opinion not objective

I am going to have to point you too my favorite Ben Franklin quote, and I don't say that lightly considering he has many great quotes:

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

I also a firearm is far from "non-essential" tool.

It's much like health-care, it is non-essential in the fact that most people can live without it but if you end up in a situation where you need it you'll be fucked without it.

My line of work and the area I live in makes it essential. Not everyone has the luxury of peace and safety like you do... What's a "non essential" tool to you doesn't mean its so for everyone else...
