"I'm not a huge fan of guns" doesn't even begin to cover it. You have full-on, foaming-at-the-mouth, undiluted hoplophobia (fear and hatred of guns), and an equal fear and hatred of the good and decent citizens who own and carry them.
How about some other rights:
1. Individual liberty
2. Life
3. The natural right of self-defense
4. Property and Trade: the right to possess, buy, sell, and barter privately owned property or goods without government permission
5. Freedom of speech (careful on that one, it's a DU minefield!)
6. Freedom of choice (pick one: choose your own health insurance policy, choose to carry a weapon for self-defense, choose charter school or home-schooling children, choose to watch adult movies)
7, Freedom of religion (think "nuns" and "forced subsidizing of contraception")
8. Freedom to raise children in accordance with the parents' values
We'll come back to the personal and institutional sexism of the Ku Klux Klams later, if you're not banned for re-registering after your la
Easy ones first. 7) Freedom of religion I believe in strongly. Freedom of religion and freedom from the religion. The constitution handles that well.
8) Yes, of course. But if that includes someone's beating the crap out of their kids or molesting them, I'm going to have a problem with that. The state then has a responsibility to intervene to protect the well-being of the child.
I support the rest but we would likely differ on interpretation. Guns. I understand the constitution is interpreted as protecting an individual right to bear arms. I would prefer a society without handguns, but I don't have that option, so I favor reasonable gun control reforms, some of which I have already outlined.
I hate insurance. I hate having to buy car insurance. I hate insurance companies. I believe healthcare should be a right. Our healthcare system is the least cost effective in the world. I support single payer, unapolegetically. We could dole out less corporate welfare and defense spending and support a far more cost effective single payer system that would save all of us money.
Of course I support the right to self defense, but real self defense. Not because some yahoo gets spooked cause he's afraid of black guys. There needs to be an actual threat. I do not support Stand Your Ground laws.
Number 4. When do you think the government has ever not been involved in trade? There has always been government regulation of some kind. Are you talking about an anarchistic system with absolutely no government regulations? No, I don't support that. There certainly has been no point in US history when the govt wasn't involved in trade, with of course the exception of piracy, smuggling and other blackmarket commerce.
1 and 2, yes. How we interpet those likely vary. For example, I think my right to life means there should be more restrictions of guns. I think a fetus is part of a woman's body and her decision to make as to whether she wants to keep or abort it. I consider abortion a moral issue, but it is a personal moral issue. The state does not have the right to privilege the life of a fetus over the mother or to control the mother's body. I personally oppose abortion but I also support a woman's right to choose. Just as I personally oppose invetrofertilization but recognize my moral understanding of that is not universal. I have a very old fashioned view that only God, or whatever force of creation exists, has the right to create or take a life. I don't, however, belief my own morality needs to be imposed on the rest of the nation.
You want to home school your kids, as long as you're competent, it's fine by me. Same with private schools, but don't expect me to pay for it.
