You are absolutely right about the 2nd amendment, but I have no problem with it being extended to include those who want to own guns for hunting or sport target shooting. I do personally think that people should not be allowed to own hand guns and especially military style weapons...there is absolutely no need for them. I firmly believe in the waiting periods, background checks, and strict(er) laws and penalties. As for the guns I think people should be allowed to own, I think the number of them should be limited. I do not believe that banning them altogether is the answer (that's one thing the NRA said right...when guns are out lawed, only outlaws will have guns).There is a huge under ground and black market for guns already, and though I'm not advocating owning guns for protection (that rarely works), I do believe the banning of guns would only make that problem bigger and the "bad guys" would take over. That's my take on it and that's the last post from me on the subject.
