10. Americans are dying and the right is standing firmly in the way.

A movement to repeal the 2nd is a political move to force gun manufactures / the right to the table.
Could the 2nd be repealed? Yes it could. It is up to the voters and a vast majority of voters want gun control. We want the bloody mutilations to stop yet the right will not allow any reasonable law to stand. States with lax gun laws (like Texas) have much higher gun violence numbers
Universal background checks, bans on violent offenders purchasing guns, and “may-issue” laws (which give police discretion in issuing concealed-carry permits) are laws I support.
What laws would you support? How do you think we can end the blood splatter?
Just so we are on the same page I have a safe full of guns and a range on my property
However there was a bloody mass murder 100 yards from my bedroom. Bullets flying everywhere. My guns did me no good at all. I have a carry permit and I am probably putting myself and family at higher risk by carrying the gun!

This is an important issue and needs more public debate.
