Gun Control
The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America secures the right of citizens to bear arms. Specifically it states: 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 left wants to eliminate guns from every law abiding citizen because guns are dangerous. Unfortunately, this leaves guns only to criminals. Not a very smart approach to eliminating a constitutional right. A right that has nothing to do with the role of guns in 18th century life. The Founders knew that throughout history, government overreach, as Britain did to their colonies and without the ability to defend themselves, is unrestricted. Give a look at public opinion in Gallup Polls on guns. Give a look at the way law abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves at Armed Citizen. Give a look at gun violence statistics.

'Bi-partisan' gun control deal = bad

6/15/22
from The Gray Area:
6/15/22:
Until we see the details of the bi-partisan gun violence bill, we have to say it is bad. And, because I have no confidence in language in this bill that will be clear, useful and constitutional, i have no problem saying this is bad legislation.

I understand and agree with the goal of the 20 group of senators. All in all, they surprised me with what they were able to negotiate. However, the existing bill passed by the House is completely different than what the Senate bi-partisan deal is. How will they be able to combine them? Provisions in the HOuse bill are completely unacceptable. Now the work moves to the Senate. Some concerning policies are reportedly part of the negotiations:

For the most part, I expect the Senate and House negotiation to continue to be nothing but the political narrative regarding 'gun violence'. That is not the issue with mass shootings. We have a deeply flawed culture, which requires we start with everything other than gun control. Hardening schools would stop mass shootings in our schools overnight! But, no one wants to fix the real problem. We Have Effective Gun Violence Solutions. You Just Won't Listen. If you want to stop 'gun violence', start in major US cities like Chicago. But, no, lets continue to ignore that. If the agreement between ten Republicans with Democrats holds through negotiations, then the final bill will likely pass and become law. Senators aim to move legislation before the July 4 weekend. This must not happen! We can do so much better.
