Is obeying an unjust law just?

(Also I'll assume your original accusation of my poor spelling was about "electon" which was a typo and I responded before checking.)
Actually owning a firearm gives you the ability to protect yourself, your property and your loved ones. Even then the historically, violent crime was lower in a society with an armed civilian population. Think about you gonna rob, mug, rape or assault someone who has a gun to? Not if you have brain stem.

As for is obeying an unjust law, if the law violates the constitution I ignore it.
