Free Speech, Right to Privacy and Right to Bear Arms.

How is it that the Second Amendment is getting all the attention and unrest. By those who are then comfortable all the while as attacks on our other personal freedoms happen?

The attack on free speech as in Citizens United allowing unlimited silent funding of elections. But this seems to be of no interests by the gun lovers. Now the Right of Privacy, who can argue that with the advances in technologies nothing is a secret any more. Tracking of ones cell phone by apps, cookies from surfing and Facebook to mention just a few quick ones.

But the right to own a weapon of mass destruction is a God given right never to be looked at. Just how advanced of a society are we?

When other countries have faced issues like this, they have chosen to limit gun rights all the while strengthening other personal rights.
