"A free people ought to be armed." - George Washington "No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." - Thomas Jefferson "The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria) "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery." - Thomas Jefferson "To disarm the people is the most effectual way to enslave them." - George Mason "I ask sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people except for a few politicians." - George Mason (father of the Bill of Rights and The Virginia Declaration of Rights) I would have said this myself but these men said it all so much sooner and better than I.

Exactly my point. There will always be people out to harm others or help others; bad guys and good guys. It is in our very nature - to deny that is to deny the existence of free will and individuality. As a martial artist, I also use all of the tools I have available to avoid violence. Removing one's self from a situation, if possible, is preferred...but sometimes people get stuck in bad places. When it comes down to "fight or flight" and there is nowhere to run, what option do we have?

The difference between a SUV and an assault rifle is that an assault rifle is specifically designed with the single purpose of killing many people as quickly as possible and a SUV was not designed with such a malicious purpose. Now I don't think an outright ban is necessary, just more restrictions and tighter backgrounds checks on owning guns, including assault rifles.

"Exerting gun control is not taking away your civil rights if you pose a threat or do something illegal." But gun control isn't aimed at criminals, it is aimed at ALL gun owners. The police have limited personnel and limited resources. They can't catch criminals if they are busy monitoring and controlling all of the peaceful/innocent people (especially with the War on Drugs). It's simple math.

Multiple attackers, as is frequently the case in home invasion robberies. While shotguns and centerfire rifles have the highest rate of one-shot stops, they are not infallible, and it takes less than 1.5s to close a 21' gap, which is right around the bare minimum for draw / acquire target / fire accurately. A shotguns spread is about 1" per yard. So at 10' is only a 3" spread. Still gotta aim.

My objective is to have ZERO gun related deaths of innocent people that don't carry guns or aren't doing something illegal. Children aren't allowed to carry weapons, yet some of them get their hands on it and have had accidents when their parents don't have them locked up safetly. Children have getting killed by losers with various types of guns while they are attending school. So how does this society prevent that? What are the options? Keep guns out in the market? What's YOUR objective?

finale: "In reality, in the first decade after the Constitution, the government put down several rebellions similar to Shays - and nobody claimed that they were merely asserting their Second Amendment rights." so, the meaning of 'regulation' meant the same back then as it does now. regulations from GOVERNMENT = laws. militias were CONTROLLED by state / federal governments. you were told what KIND of musket to have, in many cases FORCED to have one, and how many rounds. you could be fined.

The founders had a word for a bunch of farmers marching with guns without government sanction: a mob. One of the reasons we have a Constitution is the founders were worried about the danger posed by individuals acting like a militia without legal authority. This was precisely what happened during Shays’ Rebellion, an insurrection in western Massachusetts that persuaded many Americans that we needed a stronger central government to avert anarchy."
