    You can’t ban guns. The right to have firearms is literally in our constitution.

      It says bear arms, not own them. It’s all in the interpretation

        Also, it doesn’t specify what sorts of arms. It also specifies it being as part of a well regulated militia…

      Yes, as a part of a well regulated militia. How many of these gunmen were party to a well regulated militiia?

      You may be shocked to hear about amendments

        Amendments take 3/4s of the states to ratify them. that isn’t going to happen. i doubt even 1/3 of blue states would ratify such an amendment.

            good luck actually trying to do it.

          So here is a question:

          Would YOU be okay with banning guns?

          I think we’ve arrived at the point where it’s fair to say that if you are against banning guns, that you’re okay with children being shot to death on a daily basis. At this point, you can’t just pretend anymore that one doesn’t equate the other.

          There is ONLY one country in the world where this problem exists. Any other country where this happens once, gun laws immediately are tightened and it doesn’t happen anymore. In the US this has happened hundreds of times and people just can’t find the solution that the rest of the world has implemented since decades ago.

          So are you pro gun or pro alive kids?

      Really now?

      Well since trump has wiped his ass with the constitution so far, I’d say you’re dead wrong.

      Also, who gives a fuck?

      Guns are the #1 cause of death in your country. Normal counties look at situations like that and fix it. This is why this shit doesn’t happen daily in any other country in the world, as people there use their brain and don’t go “well this 200 year old paper says kids need to be shot, there is nothing we can do!”
