Obviously I shouldn’t have to say it, but there’s no such thing as a legitimate anti-gun rule. Including those being thrown at Hunter Biden.

Hunting Hunter
Obviously I shouldn’t have to say it, but there’s no such thing as a legitimate anti-gun rule. Including those being thrown at Hunter Biden.
Do wrong while feeling good about it
Is it just my impression, or is it true that most of the time when someone "petitions the government" it is to get government to violate someone else's rights in some way?
That is how it looks to me.
Maybe the nature of government is that violating people is what it does best, so that's what people generally think of when they think "Hey, I don't think 'those people' are being violated enough and that makes me mad!", which makes them take the next step: "I'm going to get government to violate them more on my behalf!"
Obviously, they aren't going to consider what they want a violation of anyone; they'll lie to themselves and others.
This isn't unique to "The Right" or "The Left"-- it is all statists equally. They just have different things they want to violate people over.
It seems to me that people who don't want to violate others choose to live life their own way and don't generally seek government's help or permission.
But those who do want to violate others have two choices-- go freelance (crime) or use government (also crime) so you have plausible deniability. Those who want to think well of themselves while doing evil choose to use government violence against others rather than taking on the responsibility and doing it themselves.
They are part of the problem.
