Yeah, I accept that explanation for 2A. And, arguably by definition the well regulated would not be regulated by the government, otherwise the spirit of the whole amendment is meaningless. I'm definitely not ignorant enough to say guns should be banned, if at least for the simple fact we'll be able to 3D print our own in a very short amount of time. Not to excuse the "liberals" (going back to your original comment and my question), being primarily Democrats and as politicians trying to do something about mass shootings for sure they go to gun regulation. And it absolutely doesn't help that Republicans seemingly don't have any solutions to the problem, including making access to healthcare overly complicated. If we go back to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness then people with mental struggles who turn to gun violence as an answer, they deserve the opportunity to get the easiest and free access to mental healthcare. So if we're not going to regulate guns (which I'm not even condoning per my 3D printer point) then the alternative course must be healthcare, and the "opposite of liberals" don't seem to even discuss this beyond "no." So I'd say both sides suck on this one too haha
I did acquiesce that some liberals were involved in the patriot act... :)
And yeah, thanks for answering the question. I try to have a meaningful conversation here, otherwise I may as well just look at cat pics.
