We already have regulations on free speech that everyone agrees with; for example, you don't think people should be allowed to shout fire in a crowded theater.
And yes, you need 2/3 of the states to agree to a constitutional amendment. Do you think that will fly?
Why are you so supportive of giving up our Rights? Why do you want to enslave and kill millions? Why are you so against a weapon that is less dangerous than fists, motor vehicles, and hammers?
Why are you so egotistical, arrogant and elitist to think that law abiding citizens should not own something that is less dangerous than fists, motor vehicles and hammers?
Why do you and others think that you know better than the founding principles that have proven for over 200 years to serve us better than any other form of founding principles yet in existence?
I'm noting the following facts in the context of developed countries:Quote:

You want to know which is a symptom and which is the cause, here is your answer.
I don't know if these people were or weren't of sound mind, but I know for certain what weapon they used.
Nobody said right or moral. We're talking about what's Constitutional. That's why we're talking about the Supreme Court. When you have grasped this distinction, let me know, and we can consider your other questions.Quote:

Who owns the other 150,000,000 guns? Young black men from the liberal inner cities?Quote:
Just 3% of Americans own half of the guns in America. And that 3% isn’t just anyone. According to a Harvard study flagged by Scientific American this month, the person most likely to stockpile guns in this country is an older, white man from a rural conservative area. And an alarming body of research shows that they’re motivated by racial anxiety and a fear of emasculation.
I see your snark but will respond anyway. I don't know who owns the other 150,000 guns. Probably people like me who only own one or two.Quote:
