Indeed. Its a very American trait and its unsurprising that people (with frighteningly similar demographics to some who post here) can legally acquire the mass of weapons that will let them live out their warped fantasies .... Vegas style :(

If a culture has been formed by generation after generation of absolute monarchies and dictators of which each crushed the populations ethics to protect privilege you find different beliefs than in cultures that overthrew the monarchy and grabbed liberty for themselves.

Repealing the 2nd is not banning guns. It is just removing this silly notion that everyone has a right to own a gun. Keep guns in the hands of responsible people by requiring a gun license, just like driver's licenses.

that is really whacko calamity

Whacko is thinking everyone should have a right to own guns. Sensible is requiring people to be licensed before they can own one. Funny that no one thinks requiring a driver's license is whacko. But, "hey, let's just let any idiot own a gun."

One, it's a right, not a privilege like driving. Two, have you counted red states lately?

Hmm... don't we currently give driver's licenses to convicted felons, domestic abusers, those with mental problems and 16 year old kids?

Yes, but the concept of repealing a right is the one that doesn't make sense.
 
"Repealing the Second Amendment"

Sounds like an anti gun fan erotica book.

Do you have evidence that will work?

No ... a gun is a lethal weapon not a 'tool'. Even infants are aware of this elsewhere in the developed world

The terms are not mutually exclusive. At least a child in grammar school understands that.
LOL but you cant even hyperbolize properly....as if 'infants' could use or even recognize tools.

The more over the top you, go, the more apparent it is that you are floundering.

Thankfully I don't live in a Hollywood generated bubble of fear and violence and I'm really good with that. I'm a Falklands war veteran who has been in close combat so I know whereof I speak. Your Dirty Harry fantasies are wasted on me :roll:

LMAO, as if your impression of your safety is realistic?

But let's say it is. I'll go with it, because here in the US, your likelihood of being killed by a gun is almost nil, nada, zippo, if a) you dont commit suicide or b) arent a male 15-34 living in a socially-economically depressed urban area. Outside of that, gun deaths are uncommon, comparable with pool drownings and other accidents (where we dont get all hysterical). But not for car accidents...those kill way more.

So cool...the vast majority of Americans...and you...live in normal lives in regular ol' areas of our countries and is little to no danger of being killed by a gun.
