I am not an advocate for or against the 2A. I do have thoughts on the subject tho. I think we need people to agree why we need or don't need the 2A so that when tragedies like a mass school shooting happens the argument of whether people should have guns or not is concluded. Right now we should be discussing how to improve the safety of our children at school and instead most of the conversation is about whether people should have access to firearms.
So, why do we have the 2nd amendment in the USA, and does our current legislation for firearms fulfill the intention the framers of the 2nd amendment had in mind?
If the answer to the second part of the question is no, we need to make our firearm laws more in tune with the framers of the amendment or accept that firearms are no longer protected by the constitution for the reasons that the framers had in mind, and therefore shouldn't even be constitutionally protected without a new amendment.
