Guns are controlled. There's law after law after law to get a gun, law after law after law stating what is illegal to do with a gun, etc. As it turns out, criminals don't are about laws.

You keep bringing up Christians/Christianity, as though I wouldn't have an issue if the ordinance change was for them. What I said was the ordinance shouldn't be changed for a religion. Last I checked, Christianity was a religion.

The issue isn't the noise. The issue is changing noise ordinance to accommodate religion.

A noise ordinance is to limit specific noise levels to certain times of day. That shouldn't be changed for any religion.

Of course I've done things that are illegal. Illegal, as relates to people crossing the border illegally, certainly seems to be a shortening of the term "illegal alien" or "illegal border crosser", kind of like you would shorten "someone who speeds" to "speeder" or "am not" got shortened to "ain't".

Got it. So we agree that it's okay to call Benito Cheeto a felon and it's okay to call someone here illegally an illegal?

I'm not criticizing, I'm pointing out the double standard.
