Under certain circumstances, yes. How often do you
bring a buck knife on to airplanes or in to courts?
You can shoot ducks in season with a license and cover
yourself in their feathers. But there are always more
ducks than raptors; they also reproduce faster.
Freedom is also the benefit from someone else, even
very few, not doing something stupid. That is an ugly
truth.
