How a civilian can buy a semi automatic legally, and 6000 rounds defies logic.
16000 gun related deaths in USA compared to 20 a year in Japan where guns are banned.
The fewer the guns, the less the violence.
It's not impossible to control guns - but Americans are determined to protect handgun freedoms.
The pro-gun types will say it is not the presence or absence of guns that matters.. that is true up to a point, it's how guns are treated, which fundamentally starts with how seriously the culture views gun control.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 infringedIt's not impossible to control guns - but Americans are determined to protect handgun freedoms.
Somehow, I don't think the Founding Slaveowners had James HOlmes buying an AR-15 and 3000 rounds of 5.56 in mind when they said, "well-regulated militia".
I think they thought of a militia with an organizational charts and ranks and regulations and such, so they didn't have the crazy person shooting stuff up...
Now, if they said, "The right to own guns to compensate for tiny penises shall not be infringed", you might actually have an argument there.
