Take away our right to bare arms ; a good or bad idea ?

Well then show some facts that prove me wrong then?

 

Ive offered solutions that dont take away anyones rights. Everyone wins

705 children have died from being left in a hotcar. Horrible, tragic, and completely preventable. According to your logic, everyone should lose the opportunity to own/run a vehicle because of the chance that they MIGHT accidently leave their kids in the car.

"On average, from 2012 to 2014, nearly 1300 children (N = 1297) died each year in the United States from a firearm-related injury"

"About 2,000 children under 16 die every year in traffic collisions"

 

I laughed for a good fifteen minutes after watching this

 

You make it seem like the tests here arent strict. That I can just waltz into any gun shop I want and walk out with a gun in 10 minutes. Thats not how it works. And it shows that youve never done any actual research into the American gun laws or even the process of getting a gun license here in America

 

Why because it goes against your point? Ive offered multiple solutions that would not only protect children, but would also allow us to keep our right to own guns. Both parties would be happy. Your 'argument' is that its stupid and 'think of the children' No facts, no evidence. The FACT is that more children die each year in car accidents than they do by guns. Since your argument is 'but the children!!' , then id expect you to be all for giving up all motor vehicles and banning them for everyone in America

 

We must have learned about two different americas. People left England to start over in America for different reasons. You had those who left England because they were being bullied for their religion. You had people who wanted to get rich quick. You Aslo had those sexual deviants who did not want to be looked down on. However, the biggest thing I noticed that American text books do not teach. America was founded by drunks.

 

Those are all true. But when the Constitution was being written, the founding fathers wanted to be sure that America would stay free and wouldnt become corrupt like so many of the European countries were at that time

 

United States is the only country I know of that still uses the same constitution from the very beginning. Almost every profession you need to learn new rules and techniques to help you do your job better. Why wouldn't the country want that as well? You say that the second amendment gives everyone the right to a firearm. That's fine, reword the amendment then. It is so convoluted as it is. In a previous post I wrote out exactly what the amendment says, and it states to form a militia. They did not have the fire power the world has today.

Also the logic of banking automobiles is not correct either. I do not know of anyone in congress who is lobbying car companies for money. If you said tobacco sure.


One final note. I was talking to some students today and they informed me that in Ohio Marijuana is now legal for medicinal purposes. However, in order to get your medical Marijuana card you need to give up your right to own a gun.
