If that is true, then the gun owner didn't protect his kid by putting trigger locks on the gun and or placing the gun in a safe or a safe place.............It's horrible if it is true but NO LAW CAN PROTECT THE PUBLIC FROM STUPID PEOPLE..................
Actually, we have tons of laws to make products safer from stupid people. Except for the gun industry. They like to make their products MORE dangerous and put them into the hands of the wrong people.
Your side ignores the self defense uses of guns and harp on the bad side of any of your ideologies..................to get a gun free world in you pathetic liberal utopia..............If we make it a law then it will all be better BS>.............and that is what it is.............BS.....................
Self-defense with guns are so rare th at they barely register. 32,000 gun deaths, only 201 were civilians in "justifiable homicide" cases.
Second- most of the industrialized world limits or bans gun ownership. They are just as free as we are with a fraction of our murder rate.
Whick is why we have the 2nd, and why your side hopes to CIRCUMVENT THE CONSTITUTION by REINTERPRETATION of what it really means..
If the Second Amendment was about unfettered gun ownership, then why did it take 230 years for SCOTUS to make that ruling? Why wasn't it a 9-0 decision rather than a 5-4 one. If anyone 'reinterpreted" the Second, it was your side.
The people don't agree with you Joe which is why you can't get it passed through Congress........So people like you will DICTATE through the courts if you can put your hacks in SCOTUS..
Actually, what the courts will do is allow cities and states to pass sensible laws again. I also think people are getting a little tired of the National Rampage Association dictating laws to us.
Will of the people need not apply to people like you..............It's your way or the highway...................no matter how you have to do it..............Doesn't sound like Freedom to me with your rhetoric..........Sounds more like Nazi Germany.
Again, guy, if we put every gun law up to a national vote, you'd close the gun show loophole, you'd have waiting periods, you'd have real honest to god background checks.
Incidently, Nazi Germany was totally cool with average germans having gun ownership. The guy who banned guns in Germany was Dwight D. Eisenhower.
