A man with easy access to guns, can simply go out and buy one. Get in the bus with it hidden, and go to your child's school and massacre everyone in that school, including your kid.

The 2nd amendment gives everyone the right to bear arms. While murder is totally wrong, it would be unconstitutional to deny people the right to carry a gun.
@9RGQQGD2yrs2Y
While I do not entirely disagree, always remember, one persons rights end where another persons begins. Where someone’s right to bear arms exists, the minute it crosses over someone’s right to LIFE there is an issue. When someone, who has the constitutional right to own a fire arm, aims and fires at an innocent child who has the constitutional right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that right to bear arms is no longer that simple. Owning a gun is fine, but they should be regulated and not end up in the hands of someone who is not mentally stable enough to hold a wea… Read more

If the second amendment is outdated and only apply to muskets. Then that makes the first amendment even older. So anyone that says that, I hope you like going back to pen and paper as your only way of comunitcation. Also, guns save more lives than they take every year. And cars kill more people than all gun deaths combined. You if you really want to ban the thing that can kill the most and the fastest, than I hope you are going to be with the idea to ban cars.

A few issues I would like to point out. Firstly, mental capacity tests would open the flood gates for politicians (both left and right) restricting peoples rights by aligning the definitions of mentally ill to align with whomever they want to restrict the rights of. Don't forget when the south had strict gun laws and whom it was exactly who was restricted from owning/ carrying them (hint: it was black people). Also lets not forget, people can lie, and will lie on those tests if they want to shoot up a school, it's not that difficult for lunatics to fit in with ordinary people. Also… Read more

“it would be unconstitutional to deny people the right to carry a gun.”
Yes I agree with you but nobody said that they would restrict anyone from buying a gun... it's just a discussion on if we should establish stricter gun rules or not.
@9T5VWSZLibertarian2yrs2Y
Either way you say it limiting access is the same as restricting access. The question is where's the line and when does it infringe on the 2nd amendment. It's about a balance of public safety and not infringing on the 2nd amendment. Most people would agree children should not have access, those with a violent criminal past should not have access etc. etc. the main issue is where is that line drawn for the average adult American.
So you think bloodthirsty animals who mow down helpless and innocent Kindergarteners are going to give a d@mn about laws against owning guns, or restricting the purchase thereof? Do you honestly think scumbags who couldn't care less about laws against cold-blooded murder are going to respect gun control laws? Do you think they're just going to say to themselves, "Dang it! I wanted to massacre a bunch of innocent children, but it turns out it's illegal to own the gun I wanted to do that with. Never mind! It's wrong to break the law, after all." Of course not. The only people on this planet who are going to obey gun control laws are people who would never dream of using guns for anything but hunting and self-defense.Read more

I think it's more about if it was harder to obtain a weapon that could do such damage it would deter those obviously sick in the head people into doing it in the first place. Making it a process to obtain a gun won't stop tragedies from happening 100% of the time, but if even one child could be saved from it, I think it's worth trying to do something different. It would mean there are less guns on the street period, and those of sound mind and of proper age would have nothing to worry about in regard to obtaining a gun. I am very much pro 2nd amendment; I think a lot less crimes against women would happen if every woman carried a gun and had the knowledge to use it well. If every man who attacked a women knew that they were carrying it would deter them from attacking them.

I strongly agree with you, people you use guns for murder or other malicious intents are criminals, and most probably would care getting a gun through illegal ways.
@9GHH9583yrs3Y
Trained personnel, in the right places, would ensure that this would never happen. Mass shootings, like the one in Maine yesterday, wouldn't have occurred if a concealed weapons permit holder with a weapon, had been around. There will always be evil men and they will always find a way to enact their depravity. The overwhelming majority of gun owners are law-abiding citizens others are safer because of.
Additionally, nine of my ancestors fought in the American Revolutionary War to give us the right to protect ourselves from enemies both foreign and domestic. I will NEVER give up my right to protect myself and my family!
But if a teacher ALSO had a gun, she could mow down that scumbag in two seconds flat instead of having to wait half an hour for the police to get there.

According to the FBI, the majority of gun deaths in the U.S. are suicides, not homicides or mass shootings. That said, it's crucial to have responsible gun ownership and proper mental health support in place. However, overly stringent restrictions might not necessarily prevent these incidents but could infringe on the rights of law-abiding citizens.

“Kids killing kids is a problem in today's society. A man with easy access to guns, can simply go out and buy one.”
I believe that we need stricter protections for gun control. However, outlawing guns would both be unconstitutional and unfair, because the 2nd Amendment guarantees the right to own guns. Also, people who are mentally stable have the right to protect themselves.
