Good for him, standing up for his rights. Everybody condemning the man is supporting a literal police state, something you'd figure Germans would've learned not to do.
[–]A_Bit_Of_Nonsense 69 points70 points71 points  (5 children)
Standing up for his rights was literally the opposite of what he was doing. He did not have the right to own a gun, much less use one to shoot 4 officers.

Yes it was and yes he does. Rights are not granted by majority vote.
[–]DexterVane 23 points24 points25 points  (0 children)
He had the lawful right, didn't follow the law, and lost his right. That's how a judicial system works in all cases. Why should firearms be exempt?
[–]Henkersjunge 12 points13 points14 points  (0 children)
Yes, every felony should own guns, its there godgiven rights, its literally in the bible!
[–]cronos844 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
A broken clock is right twice a day. Sure, rights aren't decided by majority vite, but that doesn't establish what makes something a right, nor does it show that owning a gun is a right.
