This is one of the most irrational arguments I’ve heard–all the time, I see and hear on TV people identifying themselves with “I am a gun-owner,” “I own 15 guns,” “I believe in and act on the second Amendment” proudly, and their home addresses are no secret. How tough is it to find out where your Congressman lives? So in theory, these people are revealing valuble information to burglars "I GOT GUNS!! COME N GIT “EM!” and you’re lauding as heroes. But if someone else were to make public on a list the names and addresses of congressmen with guns, you’d be all up in arms. Why is that?
Because when someone does it themselves it’s a choice. Surely you understand the difference.
Europe in general has much better privacy protection laws than the United States. We really need to catch up to you guys in that area.
But they are choosing to expose themselves to mortal danger[!!!] If that’s what happens when they do it voluntarily, then that’s the same result as when it’s done to you. Surely you understand the similar results.
Doesn’t matter. You don’t get to decide for me what risks I am willing to take.
Weeeeell, it looks like we gots ourselves a First Amendment v Second Amendment showdown.
