^what do Hondas have to do with guns? 
I'm for the waiting period and even a mental health assessment & law enforcement background check on them.
we've had too many pissed off crazy folks go into Walmart, get a piece and go after someone on the evening news.

I support it...but I think there should be some regulations to prevent them falling into the wrong hands.
If you take away the citizens guns.
then the country is over run with criminals having all the guns and a lot less fear.
The other thing is...enough countries are apprehensive about invading us, because of the firepower of the people.

First my contribution to the gun industry and the NRA!
Obama is going to take your guns!
I think we would see a lot less gun violence if guns were of the style when the constitution was drafted? Popping off 2-3 caps a minute might slow the crime rate? Carrying a 60+ inch weapon around might indicate you were up to no good?
Single shot pistols don't seem like the best armed robbery weapons?
A lot of er... liberals own guns, they just aren't usually the only thing on their minds?

I've noticed that virtually no one has responded to the question asked. I see a lot of people's views on whether or not we should have access to guns, whether guns are necessary for personal protection and what kind of restrictions/background checks should be required.
Very few comments on the 2nd amendment, though.

To those arguing against Government owning arms or "stockpile of weapons".....the 2nd Amendment protects those entities too.
To limit the stockpile of arms to governmental agencies is akin to diluting the 2nd Amendment, and to "choose" who should have them between the Citizens and the Government. More or less.
I support the 2nd Amendment because without it, we'd be just like Mexico where rogue, criminal gangs would have weapons when the Mexico Government forbids its citizens from doing so but yet, can't protects its citizens from criminal drug gangs killing the Mexican nationals.
Such people that disagree with the 2nd Amendment are usually Liberals to the bones and never make sense.
We have the right to protect ourselves as a People/Citizens/State if all else fail, or a grave imminent threat is upon us that has the potential to wipe us out as a People/Nation living in a peaceful, law-abiding way.

Early English settlers in America viewed the right to arms and/or the right to bear arms and/or state militias as important for one or more of these purposes (in no particular order):[48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55]
enabling the people to organize a militia system.
participating in law enforcement;
deterring tyrannical government;[56]
repelling invasion;
suppressing insurrection, allegedly including slave revolts;[57][58][59]
facilitating a natural right of self-defense.
Just crused through the 2nd and wikipedia and ill use this bit as why the second will never be outdated...

Chill, a couple of those are clearly still relevant; others are clearly not.
But, you had this strongly held opinion before you read that, so what was your own perspective?
It's interesting that both protection against a tyrannical government and suppressing insurrection are listed as valid ends...since an effort to overthrow a tyrannical government would be an insurrection.

I dont think so.. i think its greedy and self serving but thats a different problem..
Do we live in a violent society? Do gangs steal our children and turn them into militia members? Do we have massive amounts of children in the sex trade? Being worked as child labor?
What constitutes good people as gun owners being bad, when bad people will always have guns laws or not?
Do you think illegal activities suck as drug dealing become less visible if people in the neighborhoods have guns?
Do you think criminals make the choice to commit crimes with out guns to avoid getting shot?

The Supreme Court ruling on such matter as stated:
...federal government and the states could limit any weapon types not having a
“reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia”.

The 2nd Amendment is NOT limiting "action(s)" taken by the government, infact, the Government have powers to SUSPEND those rights if We The People acts in a manner that is lawless and outside of the scope of a regulated militia.....serving a purpose to protects the citizens/state.
If you can't understand that....

I fully support the 2nd.
And with out the second we will loose rights as the militarized portion of the government sees fit..
We will also be subject to the whims of gangs and criminals who know we are unarmed..
