[QUOTE="TheWalkingGhost"]I find it funny that people like you and others that are logically debating are being called stupid by people who think we can just up and ban guns, and then it will all be rainbows and kisses. One even pointed out about homemade explosives, which he used. Hilarious somebody with the burning flag called Americans stupid, but was stupid enough to miss all this. Classic. FYI, we all ready have a huge black market. Banning guns would make it worse.
Inconsistancy
Can never work is 'logical'? It's more just insanely thick.
And I've not said to outright ban guns, even though I'd be fine with that(in the long term), I know there must be a transition. But Mr. McCarthy here thinks nothing could ever work, that we should never bother trying, because it'll just never ever work.

I think our constitution (the amendments) could use a few changes,
Our nation 'does' need a well regulated militia, so that part of '2' can stay. It's the 'right to bear arms' for people in general that is outdated, it should be a privilege at most.
(6)"In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved"
This needs revision, should be based on a % of average household income of the prior year, not a static number (so as to not require later revisions)
And I think we could use an amendment to limit campaign contributions (subsantially), again to some % of the income of an average household of the prior year.
I was talking to him. I am not one to say don't try because it won't work, just that banning guns is not some magical solution and doing so won't cause the problems to go away. Guns are too deeply ingrained in this nation, you need a cultural shift and fixing of our border problems and health care combine with a change in our justice system to really see a change.
