The 2nd Amendment has nothing at all to do with the gun. Nice spin though... you'd make a great "journalist"

Things change people. It’s ok to adapt to change.
Enforce the laws already on the books. Stop catch and release, and give maximum sentences to every person charged with and convicted of illegal possession of a firearm. Give more time for every aggravator involved in the case. Stop using gun charges as bargaining chips in court cases. That alone would go a long, long way.
We have laws on the books already that can help. New laws won't matter a bit if we are unwilling or unable to enforce them.

Using your logic, the government desires us to have access to the most dangerous "arms" available.

The GOP leaders in Texas are way more interested in focusing on trans and gay people than enforcing gun laws. It’s an ongoing obsession.

For those of you that want gun control, just move to Mexico. Guns are illegal there, so you should feel way safer. But beware of white supremacists down there??

It say's right in the text " to defend against enemies foreign and domestic".
So, do you expect to defend yourself against your enemies, who all have modern weapons, with a musket? I bet not.
The founding fathers didn't expect that either, that's why they wrote The Bill Of Rights to be a living document.

People keep voting in Democrat leaders into cities and keep wondering why things in the cities are getting worse.
Like soft on crime, Defund the police, and lip service to mental health doesn't have consequences.

Oh poor groomer. Your people shoot up more innocent people or run over them with SUVs, and all you can think about are bashing your enemies while protecting more mentally ill democrat voters.
Why are your fellow voters so violent? Why is the burden of controlling your ilk on the back of your political enemy? I can't wait to read your completely logical response.

Think about what you are doing. You are quoting Joe Biden and the liberal left. That means you’re not thinking, you regurgitating someone else’s thoughts as if they are your own. These aren’t thinkers you are quoting.
The founding fathers knew technology evolves. In their lifetime, they saw it. They knew that there would be a constant race to develop better weaponry because national defense and self defense depended on it.
Read closer. Do you see ANY weapons they excluded from the right to bear arms? You don’t see it because they understood the moment you put a cap on technology you can use to defend yourself is the moment you make yourself vulnerable as an individual and as a nation.

Reality is, idiots like the one you are trying to reason with, just want YOUR guns removed. That is their goal.
You think these individuals that want to change the Bill of Rights are going to go after the demographic that commits the vast majority of violent crime and get their guns? Hell no. They are going to come after the red areas and leave their foot soldiers alone.

But it’s mostly a pointless debate. Our lawmakers have decided these killings are just part of life in modern day America and won’t do anything meaningful to try and curb them.

Ok. Let’s start with free speech and due process.

Well, no, they won't. The ones that have the "correct" intentions will be canceled by the left. Period.
Again, how do we control Democrat voters? Once you answer that question then you will understand why nothing will be done.

Do you think guns are unregulated in this country?

There’s a big difference between regulated and well regulated

Well, in my opinion, if guns were well regulated as opposed to ineffectively regulated as they are now, people wouldn’t be being murdered by the dozens almost everyday with them
Start with regulating their use as strictly as we do large vehicles maybe?

The problem isn't lawmakers. The laws already exist that would stop all of this, but the people whose job it is to enforce laws, are not doing their jobs, for whatever reasons.
