The 2nd Amendment was designed as enforcement of the other 9.

But it's outdated it was implemented at a time where guns were absolutely not what they are today

That's immaterial, to be honest. The issue is and always was to allow the people the means to fight back against a tyrannical government. So, if military and police still used muskets, you'd have a point.

So having semi automatics on the streets is ok then

Try not to take offense to this, but people who don't know anything about guns are often the people who hate guns. Semi-automatic is one trigger pull, one bullet. Just like a revolver.

Thanks I carried a gun for years doesn't make me a fan of them .. and I think americas gun laws needing cleaning up not perhaps getting rid of

There are approx 100M gun owners and approximately 30k people die via firearm every year - 1/3 homicide, 2/3 suicide. That means even if every single death is caused by a different gun owner, it would take over 33 years to get to 1% of gun owners having killed someone. 1/2

Of what the value are stats that attempt to defend the issue of guns based on small percentage of gun owners who commit crime. That’s a given. So what is the answer other than expecting a Govt who is not remotely interested in funding healthcare or making the changes you suggest?
