And you tell them how much better it would have been if a Monster, unable to get a gun, instead mowed them down with a car.
You do understand that a homicidal maniac doesn’t care what he kills with, he just wants to kill.
I think it would be far better to discuss why he did it? Was he on mood altering prescription drugs?
Most were, likely him too.
Mass shooters aren't out to "kill" per se. They're out for carnage as a sensory input.
I'd explain that in detail but on you it would be a waste of time.
Sure, you do that pogster. Then explain how a gun is the only way to produce carnage. K?
It isn't....but the second amendment reads "well regulated"...that tells me there has to be guidelines.
There you go again, misinterpreting the phrase "well regulated."
That phrase meant nothing to do with government "regulation" or restriction. During that time, it mean some thing that worked smoothly...
"The following are taken from the Oxford English Dictionary, and bracket in time the writing of the 2nd amendment:
1709: “If a liberal Education has formed in us well-regulated Appetites and worthy Inclinations.”
1714: “The practice of all well-regulated courts of justice in the world.”
1812: “The equation of time … is the adjustment of the difference of time as shown by a well-regulated clock and a true sun dial.”
1848: “A remissness for which I am sure every well-regulated person will blame the Mayor.”
1862: “It appeared to her well-regulated mind, like a clandestine proceeding.”
1894: “The newspaper, a never wanting adjunct to every well-regulated American embryo city.”
The phrase “well-regulated” was in common use long before 1789, and remained so for a century thereafter. It referred to the property of something being in proper working order. Something that was well-regulated was calibrated correctly, functioning as expected. Establishing government oversight of the people’s arms was not only not the intent in using the phrase in the 2nd amendment, it was precisely to render the government powerless to do so that the founders wrote it."
