Man shoots himself in leg at Getttysburg rally
The groups participating in First Amendment activities were supporting the Confederate Flag and planning to protest against the political activist group Antifa.While Central PA Antifa leaders denied rumors that the group was planning a rally in Gettysburg this weekend, members of the opposition groups there remained unconvinced that they weren't showing up. No members of Antifa showed up at the park by the middle of the afternoon.

What a dope.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

I am not anti-gun, but SOME PEOPLE should not have them. In this case it was a danger to themself AND others.

That story clearly states everything wrong with guns.
Loudly demanding rights while flatly ignoring responsibility.
If you make yourself miserable trying to make others happy that means everyone is miserable.

True. On the gun issue we see most clearly that, in modern America, people assert rights while abandoning responsibility and duty.
We will not be great again until we couple the three once more.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! But, if more law-abiding citizens owned weapons, then someone could have prevented this by shooting the guy that shot himself. Something to think about.

Rights, responsibility, and duty need to be coupled together on most issues.
"Reproductive freedom" comes immediately to mind.
