Should the Second Amendment be revisited?

Let's look at the issue in rational terms.

A guy going nuts and shooting up a mall is a tragedy, but in actual, relative terms it is statistically irrelevant as a cause of death. There are far more dangerous activities that we take completely for granted or completely ignore. To suggest we change our entire way of life to deal with what is basically a statistical anomaly is quite frankly irrational. A completely overwrought reaction that is being pushed by the supporters of a particular political viewpoint.

In other words this drive to repeal the right of the individual to defend his personal integrity and property is a completely political, internally derived attack on the US Constitution and should be viewed as such by the voter.

Wizard, I just wanted to add: failure to properly secure weaponry is an issue that should be reviewed imho...

The revolution on guns took place a long time ago. Let us pray that we never have to fight that fight again.

Any uprising will be pickets and demonstrations.

No one can demonstrate like Americans. (maybe the Greeks.)

Think 60s and 70s.

I seriously do not think that violence is on anyone's mind, except those that wish to demonise gun owners, loonies and criminals. I'm seeing more spittle from their mouths than others. With self righteous indignation at peaceful and law abiding gun owners and pro gun advocates, than from gun owners. All supposedly aimed at the loonies and criminals, but instead picking on the soft targets.

I am thoroughly ill of all the violence.

I wonder how many antis will play violent video games, watch ultra Hollywood violence and last but not least, the msm advertising and profiting from the violence.
