You don't remember the lefty that nearly killed a bunch of republicans at a softball game? Oh but that one congressman/senator is going to amend the whole fucking constitution. Seriously, try rubbing those last two brain cells togther to maybe come up with something not profoundly stupid.
The constitution doesn't give you a right to own a gun: it gives you the right to be part of a well-organized and regulated militia. The Supreme Court made the individual right to own a gun up.

Yes but gun law proponents need to acknowledge the fact that there are 400 million guns in the USA, which makes these laws relative ineffective in states that have stricter gun laws

Boo hoo, I wish America never got like this isn’t constructive thinking. It is this way, we can bitch about it all we want but can’t change that now. So how does a NEW gun law in this country work effectively as a deterrent?

Haha what do you think a militia IS?

It's the citizenry being armed. That's literally what it is. Please don't pretend you actually give a shit about things being constitutional or not.

I didn't realize the supreme court just makes stuff up! It's almost like their whole job is to interpret the constitution and safeguard it's intent. If you disagree with their interpretation that's fine, but they aren't "making things up" just because you don't like their conclusion.

I take you have neither studied the constitution nor the law much?

Read it again and take note where the commas are placed. It's pretty important.


A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

So what's your point: let's just ignore the first half of the amendment, clearly the framers didn't think it mattered because they used commas?

And as a side note, the English language was significantly different hundreds of years ago, so applying any of our modern understanding of commas to it would be incorrect.

Googled for you. https://www.google.com/search?q=what...obile&ie=UTF-8

The comma functions as a tool to indicate to readers a certain separation of words, phrases, or ideas in order to prevent misreading the writer's intended meaning. When a sentence is spoken aloud, a comma often represents a pause, which in verbal conversation functions to clarify meaning
