Our guns aren't going anywhere, the Govt. is not capable of taking them all. It's logistically not feasible.

A government that seeks to take the guns from it's citizens is a government that seeks to step on the rights of the citizens and they shouldn't take away the guns but they should not allow everyone to have access to guns that easily.

What is the right of a citizen wrt to guns? That right should be only in the vicinity or safety of your home. The moment guns are carried out, in public areas, it infringes upon the rights of other citizens right to safety and their right to live.
Even a policeman with a gun is dangerous but they are trained for many years before they are allowed to use it.

What is the difference between a terrorist and a person carrying a gun in public areas. How do you differentiate ?
What does a 18 Year old have use for a gun ?
Why is semi automatic and fully automatice weapon required in a peaceful state like ours ? These are weapons for war not a democracy.

Gun control is required. Not ban against it but Control... just like we control medicines, drugs and every harmful substance and tools we have.

The 2nd Amendment:

Quote

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

In the narrow sense, the "well regulated Militia" is the posse... the group of people called out by Government to take care of some public problem. We aren't supposed to have cops.

In the broad sense, the "well regulated Militia" is the people having and using guns in public to keep the Government at bay... "necessary to the security of a free State."
