Sure, you could say that armed guards, the police and the secret service have the uninfringeable authority to have guns. So do we, it’s called the 2nd Amendment. You could also say that you trust them to have guns and that trust is crucial to allowing someone to have guns. We millions upon millions of people aren’t convicted murderers and you don’t trust us? Why wouldn’t you trust anyone who doesn’t have it in them to murder?
You’ll hire armed guards and you don’t know them from Adam or Jane. Yet you trust them. They have a good record of not murdering anyone with their guns or the guns their employment gives them for work. We have a good record too of not murdering anyone too, but you won’t trust us?
Clearly you favor one group of people over another even though they meet the same essential and crucial criteria for trust and safety with guns.
That’s called discrimination.
