Licensing, insurance, and accountability for wrongdoing is NOT disarming the working class.
It's simply just enforcing with guns the same thing we do with other mass-owned but potentially highly lethal objects. And if we require a hunting license when someone wishes to use a gun to take the life of an animal, should it not then hold true that we have a license requirement for firearms ownership considering guns are far too often used for the taking of human lives? A human life is as precious as a deer's where the gun is concerned.
The working class should be armed, but the working class also has a responsibility to protect itself from abusers and hold those who abuse that armament accountable, and pass laws that make accountability and justice EASIER, not harder.
