    Because everything today is exactly as it was when the US constitution was first ratified…

    This is anti-progress thinking. It’s laughable that you actually think basic legal reforms can’t happen.

      No one said basic legal reforms can’t happen, you’re creating a strawman. I said that this Congress and this Supreme Court will not allow gun control. If you disagree, by all means let me know where my error lies.

      Also, let me know the path to passage rather than vague statements about eventually. Eventually is weasel language that means you have no confidence in what you’re saying; if you did, you’d tell me when and how that can be accomplished.

        No one said otherwise. But you won’t have this congress and this SCOTUS forever.

        And again, it is basic legal reform. It is not some hard problem. And since nearly every Western country has both universal health care and gun control, it is pretty feasible for those ideas to spread to the US at some point. All your doing is apologizing for the modern incarnation of racist violence.

          How? Eventually! When? Eventually! Why? Eventually! Who? Eventually! What? Eventually!
