the right to bear arms is irrelevant... it's the right to bear arms as part of a militia"There are several versions of the text of the Second Amendment, each with slight capitalization and punctuation differences, found in the official documents surrounding the adoption of the Bill of Rights.[5] One version was passed by the Congress,[6] while another is found in the copies distributed to the States[7] and then ratified by them.As passed by the Congress:A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.As ratified by the States and authenticated by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State:A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_ConstitutionToday American't has a bloated, dysfunctional military to bear its arms...

it is true that criminals will still find way to get what they want...i did like Chris Rock's bullet control idea though
the right to bear arms is irrelevant... it's the right to bear arms as part of a militia
From what I remember that is NOT TRUE.Here is what that Wiki entry states:In 2008 and 2010, the Supreme Court issued two landmark decisions concerning the Second Amendment. In District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), the Court ruled that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm, unconnected to service in a militia[1][2] and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home. Here is the link to that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_ConstitutionIn other words, you don't have to be part of any militia or military, instead you can own the gun for simple self-defense needs."1"

Some good dancing going on. I'll be seeing all the same rhetoric/chaff been thrown up when the next massacre happens. And the one after that. Etc.
And it will happen and they can't be prevented that's the reality of the situation. That's what people don't want to acknowledge , we can NOT control these things
hoho, you familiar with how "liked" the jewish people were in the us during those times?
These types of events have happened all around the world. And subsequent policies enacted to prevent recurrence have been significantly successful. Except in the US. Let's see how many of these same-type threads we will again have in 2013.
