Yep, I keep telling you people there are no exceptions to "Shall not be infringed."
Amendment 2 - Right to Bear Arms. Ratified 12/15/1791. Note
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.
Yep, I keep telling you people there are no exceptions to "Shall not be infringed."
actually the SC has ruled that there are more than one exception to that clause. You can't own nuclear arms for example or assault rifles at least in some states.
Furthermore the entire right to bear arms is predicated on your position in a state militia.

The Supreme Court ruled in DC v Heller and McDonald v. Chicago that the Second Amendment is an individual right.
District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), was a landmark case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution protects an individual's right to possess a firearm for private use within the home in federal enclaves.
McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U.S. ___ (2010), was a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States on the issue of gun rights. The Court held that the right of an individual to "keep and bear arms" protected by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution is incorporated by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and applies to the states. The decision cleared up the uncertainty left in the wake of District of Columbia v. Heller as to the scope of gun rights in regard to the states.

In a statement issued Saturday night, Pima Community College said Loughner was suspended after a series of run-ins with campus police between February and September, capped by the discovery of a YouTube video in which he accused the college of operating unconstitutionally. Loughner quit school after the suspension, the college said -- and it warned him that to return, he had to present a doctor's note stating that his presence would not be "a danger to himself or others."

Those who don't pay attention are criminals, are they not?
The point being it is already ILLEGAL to buy weapons in every case where insanity prevails. Of course one MUST first prove someone has a mental problem. The requirement being one be adjudged mental by a Judge or other appropriate Official.
What do you guys propose? That Politicians get to judge their opponents incompetent simply because they are their opponents?

criminals will ALWAYS get weapons, no matter WHAT. Only keeping the law abiding people armed can help this situation. Guns don't kill people. People kill people. Get it through your head.

CNN has provided a nice world map of gun related crime. What is interesting is that the gun related crime doesn’t seem to be strongly correlated with lawful gun ownership. For example, the USA has some of the least restrictive gun laws in the world, and has a “medium” level of gun crime, while Brazil has some rather strict gun laws, but has a high level of gun related crime. Similarly, Norway and Finland have a high rate of gun ownership, but a “low” rate of gun related crime, while Russia has restrictive gun laws but a “high” rate of gun crime. Despite what the anti gun groups say, guns, in and of themselves just don’t cause crime. Instead, the intentional actions of criminals are to blame, and it is likely that socioeconomic considerations also play an important role in crime rates.
