Gun Laws Freedom and Jaywalking

jaywalking laws, can’t cross the road 
but you can own the gun you load 
shooting bullets and taking lives 
can’t cross the road from left to right 

so gun laws would put your freedom at stake 
you can’t cross the road for goodness sake!!
It appears your freedom’s fake, 
making laws no one else makes!!

*Hashtag Perspective 
own a gun, legal, freedom 
cross the road, illegal, prison.

I think that should say “laws no one else make” but I’ve read it as “makes” which may have been autocorrected and now I’m very confused like a dyslexic delude!! If anyone sees this comment and wants to contribute an opinion I would be very grateful lol
