Well, fortunately, the Bill of Rights is fluid. Its changed for the better in the past. Let's hope it changes for the better in the future.

And hopefully the expansive ruling in Heller doesn't doom us all to continued excessive cycles of gun violence.

Let’s hope our rights continue to remain rights instead of temporal privileges to be voided anytime people find it politically convenient.

I think you are confusing political convenience with "anytime mass shootings become normal"

Still awaiting to here why criminals are going to surrender or not use almost every magazine in existence because a ban is passed. I’m sure this will solve psycho’s going psycho.

Rest assured that criminals will continue to commit crimes with guns that may be banned in the future, due to the absurd history of gun sales in our country. The point is to slow the future proliferation of such weapons. You know, so maybe we don't get to 500 Million guns in this country so soon.

Think of these laws as tourniquet to try to SLOW the bleeding.

Mhm. So you don’t even expect to see in the data that it does anything. Of course we don’t want to set an expectation it will actually work in any mathematical way. Just like other ban in the US.

Even assuming it’s the gun that’s the problem, maybe the 400,000,000 guns that are peaceably owned aren’t the problem and it’s the ~10,000 that will used in murders this year. But no, we should eradicate the ‘fluid’ bill of rights instead. I eagerly await this principle being applied evenly to all items.

Dude, you talk in the most extremes for no reason. "Eradicate the Bill of Rights": its tiresome

Plus one. Same people that said you can’t infringe my freedoms of speech have been successfully sued for defamation when they act like jackasses.
