Re: Gun Control Thread- Should we?

Re. 1): From a link you posted HERE, and described as "Pretty good opinion peace" second paragraph of the link: "The Amendment, which is one of the most awkwardly written sentences in American history, has always been fraught with ambiguity. Traditionally, the Court had ruled in cases such as United States vs. Miller (1939) that the Amendment’s first clause, about “a well regulated Militia,” expressed its true purpose. In Heller, however, Justice Scalia was able to convince the Court that the Amendment’s second clause, about “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms,” trumped the first clause, and that the word “people” somehow refers to individuals rather than to a militia or a collective." Re. 2): This isn't going after gun ownership? FRPLG: ".....but guns are absolutely part of the problem. Or more accurately the fact that we own so many guns in this country is an indicator of a deeper problem that is caused by many different things. But the pro-gun crowd seems to want to ignore the "fact" that we own TOO MANY guns in this country. Perhaps gun control isn't the answer to effectively reducing them but we do need to reduce them." More than a few posts this thread about this. Here Is a List of All the Assholes Handsome Law-Abiding Citizens Who Own Guns Some People in New York City Oh and it bears repeating, first tangible result of this "outing" like you Giantone posted saying "I would be beneficial for Gun owners to help rather then fight against new gun laws." Monkeydad posted this: Inmates using newspaper's gun owner map to threaten guards, sheriff says. "They have inmates coming up to them and telling them exactly where they live. That's not acceptable to me," Falco said, according to Newsday." Quote:
