Massachusetts’ law prohibiting the possession and sale of some semiautomatic weapons commonly used in mass shootings is acceptable under a recent change to Second Amendment precedent from the US Supreme Court, a federal judge said Thursday.
I agree. I find it difficult for people to acknowledge that all parties of a topic that brings strong opinions have rights.
There’s a balance or compromise needed, but it’s easy to believe one person’s right trumps another’s, but how to determine who’s is more important is a difficult. We usually go with greater good, or personal life experiences.
I think it’s easy to side against firearms for the sake of safety and a greater good. I can’t imagine Americans allowing laws that restrict being allowed to have children though. I imagine most people would say that having children falls into an inalienable right category, but are there instances where people wouldn’t have been allowed to have kids if you had to apply for some kind of license?

Both examples affect safety and human lives.
