>>why is carrying a gun around illegal?
It is not - at least where I live.
>>Who decided that any government could make laws telling me I can't carry a gun?
Where I live we have specifically prevented the government from passing such laws.
>>The reason why is that it would be disruptive to society otherwise - that's why the FCC is there. We may not like 'em, but they're much better than the alternative.
Except that people having the legal right to carry (without a permit) and conceal (with a permit) is one factor in substatially reduced crime rates.
As for the FCC-they have over-stepped their bounds by making it too costly and therefore impossible for the average person to enter the broadcast market (radio or Internet). They have succummed to the political lobbyists.
