[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1985398, member: 5151"] One's own Constitutionally-protected rights end where they infringe upon another's, especially if one considers property rights to be valid natural rights that merit Constitutional protection. That said, there is also the natural (and Constitutionally-protected) rights to choose who to associate or enter enter agreements with. This includes the right to choose where to spend one's money. That means if someone wants me to disarm before entering their establishment, I am free to go and do business elsewhere, as well as request that others I associate with not do business with said establishment. Depending on the type of establishment, the impact could be marginal or significant. If its marginal, I don't expect them to change the rules on their property. If its significant, they likely will. And to be clear, what I said in my previous post was not directed exclusively, and perhaps nor inclusively, toward you. My personal position on the National Rifle Association is that they are rather counterproductive in terms of fully ensuring that the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is not infringed. In fact, I believe the NRA to be facilitators of a certain level of infringement solely for the purpose of keeping themselves in business. [/QUOTE]
