(18,770 posts)Will we discuss the fantasy gun control that will involve giving up half of the Bill of Rights? Or will we discuss the type of gun control which will affect the everyday crime and violence that costs thousands of lives but will probably not do much at all to stop Mass shooters?
May we also discuss the system of social, racial, and economic inequality that is the roots of much of the violence in this country or will this be a guns only discussion?

Oh yeah. The availability of guns themselves.
You said your piece and I said mine. So I don't want to go back and forth except to say that a twisted interpretation of the Second Amendment is not one half of the Bill of Rights.
