The more it gets challenged the less restrictive it will become re Heller and MacDonald.
I know all the talk (people kill not guns). That is a true statement. Problem though is irresponsible people can buy guns. That is what will cost us all our guns one day. George Soros is not the only person that does not like guns. Probably has something to do with a family member getting killed by a gun. Ask the parents that have lost kids at school shooting, gang wars, etc. Again irresponsible people with guns or irresponsible parents, accidents, whatever.
School shootings and gang violence have NOTHING to do with guns or responsibility. School shootings are done by psychopaths. Gang members have rap sheets a mile long and are still out on the street. Until our legal system decides to truly "get tough on crime" and actually "get tough on criminals" nothing will change. Blaming the guns is pure folly.
As gun owners, we should be more responsible and want others to be so, and quit hiding behind the 2nd amendment. There is a real responsibility to gun ownership. We don't need more regulation, we need to regulate ourselves. We need to win our neighbors trust.
I am not my brother's keeper. I am responsible for me and me only. It all goes back to my previous post about the vast majority of people being responsible citizens. Punish those that criminally misuse to the full extent of the law. Leave everyone else alone.
