Honestly the amount of people who think we should also be arresting people for celebrating tragedies and being hateful is rather unnerving.

It's not a privilege as noone grants it. It can be suppressed, but you are inherently capable of bearing any weaponry you can make, find, or otherwise get your hands on.

What, do you imagine that without permission your hands just go all noodly and can't grip a gun?

It seems rather sissified to have to have a gun to be all manly.
