"Ok , so you are aboard an airplane full of people heading to New York or any major city in the United States . Would you be comfortable knowing that someone who wants to crash the plane can legally bring a gun on board , thus making it easier for him to follow through with his plan ? Or would you rather make it more difficult for him to hijack the plane ? Your choice ."
"Actually even with a concealed weapons permit , I do not believe you are allowed to possess a firearm on board an aircraft . The Second Amendment protects the right to OWN firearms and other weapons , and to use them in self defense . It does not grant a person the right to bring a gun on a plane , nor do I see how it could be interpreted to mean such a thing . Where do you get this question ? And terrorists already recieve their weapons illegally . It is NOT LEGAL for any country to sell weapons to a terrorist country/nation/organization . But somehow they always get their hands on weapons . Hmm ... I do n't think they go out to their local shooting range and pick up a 9mm pistol . While it is possible ( if they passed the backgroud check that is ) , its not probable . Because they would still have the illegal avenue to pursue the purchase of firearms with . If you want to ban firearms , the only thing you 're doing is taking away the rights of citizens to defend themselves . Terrorists and criminals in general will find a way to obtain the firearms they desire no matter what laws are in effect . Llike they would follow the laws anyways ? They ARE terrorists you know . )"
