You don’t have to plead the 5th when in court. You don’t have to exercise freedom of speech or religion, but they are there just in case you decide to. The same applies to the right to bear arms. Don’t like guns or think that guns are dangerous, don’t’ get one, but don’t try and take away my rights because you choose not to exercise yours.

I can’t remember if it was here or not but I read that the guy that funded the DC gun ban doesn’t even own a firearm, but he was sick and tired of the gov’t taking away rights so he did something about it. He got some regular folks w/o connections to organizations like the NRA and they challenged the gun band and won.
