Should it be something else? Could it be something else?
Freedom of thought invariably will consist of various things people disagree with. That you only list some social dregs and link them to your more hated political angle speaks poorly of your thought process. It is ironic that you would link those examples, since the further you get from "white privilege and capitalist supremacy" the less progressive those views become.
Be careful trying to encourage thought police. That is not a tame animal. (quick swerve back on topic) The right to bear arms is a way for citizens to keep away its bite. Whether that be from the government or just irate people. Guns are power, it is simple as that. No government in the world is immune to that fact. Where that power is and should be concentrated is really what this topic boils down to.
