        @Atul_Gawande good point. 2nd Amendment doesn't mention guns. What's extent of arms? Shoulder fired missile?

        @Atul_Gawande Sawed-off shotguns & full automatic weapons illegal since 1930's. Very very rare, even with criminals.

        @Atul_Gawande at the minimum, we should require all would-be gun owners to take a course, and pass a test before being licensed to own a gun
