2nd amendment, adopted in 1791, which was perfect at the time as the old musket was perfect for keeping the old brown bears at bay really means **** all now, doesn't it? When will they get it?
not sure that removing guns from the law abiding would have changed this though. a bloke who has supposedly spent weeks planning this, "scouting" locations and planning on how to kill the most people, is all of a sudden going to change his mind because he cant legally get a gun? he would just get one illegally.
and saying that removing them from the law abiding makes them harder to get, in the US case, is bull. they have no records of who has what. make them illegal to own, and you have just pushed the millions of guns over there onto the black market. and the us government certainly doesnt have the cash for a buy back as we had here (not that the majority of americans would comply anyway)
its very easy to just say remove the guns. the reality is far from a one liner though
