Why the hell do so many gun owners feel that it's ok if one right is trampled as opposed to another. There's quite a few here who just give up their 4a just to play nice.
Because they dont care about rights, which are colors of inherent liberty. What they care about is what they actually see as a privilege that they feel entitled to, and call it a right because that carries greater rhetorical weight.
Yes prisoners lose quite a few rights when in prison. That's because they violated the rights of another and went through due process of law to have those rights suspended. If a person on death row is killed by another prisoner it's still murder even though he's technically dead already.
Not disagreeing, just clarifying:
Rights are never lost or suspended; they can be violated, in the cases of government and crime, and they can be superseded, in the case of justice.
