"The Second Amendment is unimpeachable. It guarantees the right of citizens to defend themselves. I accept, however, that it does not guarantee that every civilian can bear any and all arms." ---
@BrianMastFL THIS is common ground.@Everytown@MomsDemand@GiffordsCourage -
Except the Second Amendment is not "unimpeachable". The Constitution has been amended 27 times, and we have repealed or altered some amendments (Prohibition). The second amendment was written when slavery was legal, women could not vote, and guns fired one round per 2 mins...

blah blah blah march out quotes to push only one view/perspective. Do you really think any of us buy this. Cover both sides honestly or admit you’re simply activists.

It’s an opinion piece, it’s only meant to cover one side ... i.e. the writer’s opinion.
-
…get that but when will the other opinion be covered? See it never really is and that’s the point.

I was wrong! I just passed a message that the Repugs in Congress just fail to have the cajuns to do something. Mast has more voice than the rest of the wretched bunch.

Correction being used by students to kill their fellow students. The AR-15 has been available to the public since 1963. Why is this present generation killing each other in an increasing rate. Banning one type of gun is not going to change the outcome.

If you just take the time to watch one of these weapons being fired, you will know instinctively and instantly that it should never have been available to the general public.

Which caliber? I’ve shot one set up to shoot .22’s.
