I'm bipolar, are you against me owning a gun?

yes

That's wonderful to think that you believe I should be treated as a 2nd class citizen and do not have a right to protect myself.

I never said that you did.
And do you think anyone that is unarmed a second class citizen? Why ask a question you know you will not like the answer too?
This is my point you are not taking into account other ways to protect yourself. The gun doesn't not make you a man.
Just because you have a mental illness I am meant to feel sorry for you?
I have a moral code I will not break for anyone.
If you were in my unit, I would have you booted that far tomorrow would seem like yesterday.
Not that I don't like you as a person because I do very much, just you pose a risk, that I would never be willing to take.

So how does me having a gun make me any more dangerous than driving a car?
Never know when I might have a mental breakdown and decide to run over a bunch of school kids during recess.

You know as well as anyone else a car is not classed as a firearm. You know with that line of thinking, why do they have traffic laws and road rules, is it not my right to drive a car when I like, how I like and at what age I choose.
The answer is same as why there needs to be gun laws.

A firearm is a inanimate object just like a car, it requires an operator. The way I interpret your post is that a car is a completely different class of item therefore when a mentally ill person operates a vehicle, they can do so in a safe manner.
However when a mentally ill person encounters a firearm, handling of this object will turn the operator insane and cause them to go on a killing spree killing little timmy and his friend next door. The operator drops the firearm and returns to a sane state, realizes what he has done, crys, and then kills himself. Media has a field day and says "what a tragedy, more gun control laws! Mentally ill shouldn't have guns".
Ah I understand the logic now, well I better go to the gun buyback at walmart and buy a moped, I can't hurt anyone with that. ;)
