As I say, that is a problem with a lack of leadership.

How so ? Hard to beat the frickin' U.S. Constitution and Supreme Court backed gun rights. That would be political suicide...pun intended.

And as I quoted at the outset, "when will they ever learn"

They know what to do, the problem is the lack of leadership.

Nobody is stepping on your right to have a good liberal cross-border cry, but please keep your foreign hands off my constitutional rights.

No

I never mentioned race...that was your contribution. The point made was that technological advances did not limit gun rights, but there were amendments made to outlaw slavery. First Nations are not required to limit treaty resource gathering technology to the 19th century.

No, you were the one who said your constitution was written when slavery was still legal. How was that not making a connection between the second amendment and slavery?

What would you suggest? Do you feel something needs to be done?

Already discussed in previous shoot 'em up threads. Keep perps in prison...."manage" the mentally ill with more resources.

You would think dead bodies surrounding everything from a grade school to a college campus would spark some sort of leadership. But essentially since the Columbine disaster, nothing much has changed. Is everybody down too busy watching Jerry Springer to actually give a F***.?

The connect was to refute your assertion concerning firearms technology. Gun rights were not modified or repealed...slavery rights were.

No....American citizens have the right to own and bear firearms, except for felons and the mentally incompetent.

I get what you are saying. But how do you propose curtailing the massacre of students and kindergarten children? What is your proposal?

Do what they did in Toronto....lots of armed cops in schools.

The ones wherein law abiding citizens lose their right to own and bear firearms because of criminals and crazy people.

Right.
