When securing a free-for-all approach to assault rifles via the 2nd Amendment, you will find an endless stream of people arguing for it on right-wing radio and television these days.

The sad irony is the politicized rhetoric that prizes life before birth – often later ignores or strips it of humanity when a child is a neighbor.
