A genuine, serious question for my American friends and colleagues: the Second Amendment gives you the right to bear arms (guns). Wasn't it written at a time long before powerful, modern military weapons were even invented? I can understand (even though I disagree with it) the reasoning from being a frontier, developing country with the need to have a pistol or a shotgun type weapon for protection or to hunt with but surely it is not reasonable for people to have machine guns, rapid fire weapons and other like that in their homes?

My question is why, other than the gun manufacturers wanting to sell guns, can't there be restrictions on the type of weapons that can be bought? I just don't understand how, or why, teenagers or young men (it seems to be males who do this not females) can go out and legally buy such military grade weapons which they then go out and use to kill so many innocent people, particularly young children.

I don't understand how banning the sale of military weapons to the public would infringe their Constitutional Right to bear arms. Why can't just basic pistols and rifles, of the kind that were around when the legislation was drawn up, be the sort that are sold to the public? I doubt many went out to buy Gatling guns when the second Amendment was first passed.

Yeah, I pretty much agree. I think there should be a more restrictive process when it comes to buying a gun. Though, the rebuttal seems to be that people will obtain them illegally no matter what.

Because that would make too much sense.

Your post is 100% on the money. There's very little hope for this country barring a miracle.

I really didn’t want to come back to this thread again, but I’m hearing gas has been reaching 5 dollars to many states already and my blood pressure is just going up after seeing so.

5 is nothing, some parts of LA are approaching $8

Yeah I get that, but it’s not exactly an easy feeling when you literally end up having to pay almost 80-90 dollars just to fill up your tank.

Hey, remember when Trump won in 2016 and the democrats started saying all this crazy stuff about how he was going to over turn Roe v. Wade

you're right, he hasn't overturned Roe v. Wade, but he's sown the seeds in the Supreme Court for it to happen.

Interesting to look back
