The right to keep and bear arms is not just about guns. It also includes knives & other implements useful for self defense. In Caetano v Massachusetts, stun guns were deemed to be protected by the 2nd. Claiming that the people can own arms but not the means to make them useful is a 'too clever by half' interpretation.

I sleep on a nice comfy bed knowing if someone breaks into my home I can protect myself and family I’m not justifying kids dying that is not ok but blaming a inanimate object is not the answer again instead of blaming the government for literally not doing anything you blame the only thing citizens have to keep the government in check

And the justification for the mass murders of children is off! There could have been a very easy way to prevent Uvalde altogether.

Instead you continue to justify the mass murder of children. I don't know how you sleep at night, but I prefer not to interact with folks like you...

Good day sir

Ok 1 the uvalde shooting could have been prevented by the fact the fbi states they knew he was planning on commuting a shooting yet did nothing about it I don’t see why playing guns will solve anything when for someone to Legally purchase a gun they need to have a fbi background check on them so why is no one blaming the person who did the background check

They consistently fail to make the connection that most illegal guns are derived from people who were "law abiding". Case in point, bristol CT and Uvalde. Both legally purchased their guns, then committed heinous crimes

They attempt to justify their illfound logic without any regards to common sense and consideration for others, namely children and minorities, who suffer from it.

They are the epitome of dumb and put us all at risk.

Good day sir.
