Over a century.

Bears repeating: "I'm mad at my legislators for legislating me out of the right to defend myself." She's 100% accurate; 2nd Amendment is about our right to protect ourselves from our government.

Chucky Schumer and Diane need to read the constitution. What part of "shall not be infringed" is unclear?

If they do not like the Constitution they should resign from office.They took an oath to support it.

All gun laws are a violation of the second amendment. Here is the relevant law: A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

The real answer is to ban all guns like in Britain. How many people die there from guns? I'm sorry this lady lost her parents, but does she really believe the answer is for everyone to arm themselves with assault weapons?

Some math for ya, geewhiz:

Take the TOP FIVE mass murders (by body count) on U.S. soil in ALL of U.S. history, INCLUDING the worst-ever SCHOOL massacre (whose body count alone equaled the COMBINED total of Columbine AND Virginia Tech!), and add up ALL of the bullets fired at ANY living things in ALL of them.

Calculate the GRAND TOTAL of bullets aimed at ANY living thing in ALL FIVE of the Top Five mass murders on U.S. soil in U.S. history.

COMBINED.

Answer? ZERO! NONE! ZIP! NADA! ZILCH!

We tried banning alcohol by CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT roughly a century ago. Not only did it NOT work, the black market created led to the establishment of organized crime in the USA, which plagues us to this day even after that Amendment (the ONLY one ever to attempt to REMOVE a Right of the People, and ALSO the only one EVER to be repealed — coincidence?) was repealed, the only way a Constitutional Amendment CAN be — by another Amendment.

Prohibition doesn't work. Period.

Uhm, do you know the definition of the term "criminal"?

What do criminals do with laws, BY DEFINITION?

So, why, pray tell, do you think that laws of any kind would make them do (or not do) anything they don't (or do) want to do? Especially since guns and ammo both can be easily made from materials that cannot be banned without destroying the economy outright.

The only way to GET RID of guns is to get rid of the knowledge and materials to make them. Destroying the Earth entirely might suffice.

and if guns were completely outlawed in the states (like in many other countries) this wouldnt have reached the scale that it did

Along those lines, note that the relatively recent rash of premeditated school shooting sprees began on Feb. 2, 1996, in Moses Lake, WA.

Note that date. Prior to that, we might see one such incident per GENERATION. It only took one year for the next one, and then it skyrocketed until only a year later we had multiple such incidents PER DAY, TWICE! Both days in ONE WEEK!

That date was mere MONTHS AFTER then-President Clinton's Gun-Free Schools Act took effect.

DIDN'T •WORK•, DID IT!?!?

I disagree with her conclusion.

You see, the gunman went to the Luby's in the FIRST place BECAUSE of that sign, BECAUSE, as crazed as he was, he was still sane enough to realize that such a place would be the only crowded place nearby that he could kill a bunch of people and thus make his insane final statement without being quickly taken down himself.

If it weren't for that sign, we would never even have HEARD of a gun massacre at a Luby's in Killeen. It would've happened somewhere else.
