Haugh: Why I am a Pro-Gun Pacifist

Why I am a Pro-Gun Pacifist

by Sean Haugh

OK, so I'm not really quite a pacifist. But I'm close, I think. The truth is, I honestly don't know if I would use force to defend myself or my loved ones. Before one can really label themselves as a pacifist, one has to be able to answer that deeply personal question. I thank God I have never had to answer that question for myself, and I have arranged my life so that I can avoid ever having to discover that answer.

I can say that I don't own a gun, and I don't ever want to own one. I do not allow them in my home or my car. I'd prefer not to be within 10 feet of one, but hanging out with Libertarians as I do, I can't always have my way.

I say this not out of fear of guns. I know most of them have a range of over 10 feet. No, it's an aesthetic thing for me. I'd rather guns didn't exist. I'd love nothing more than to wake up tomorrow morning and read the headline that all guns and other weapons have disappeared from the face of the earth, never to return.

My job as Mr. North Carolina Libertarian is chock full of delicious ironies. One of my favorites is that this self-styled pacifist is one of the most prominent Second Amendment advocates in the state. I don't care who you are, now that's funny.

So why I am such a passionate defender of the right to keep and bear arms?
