Can you answer the below questions, yes or no?
Are you maybe trying to make excuses for "guns," in general, by maybe using the Second Amendment, maybe in a sense as its own "gun guard?"
Or are you trying to maybe, rationalize around the gun violence brutalities, waged against, some the public as a whole, by some of the lawful gun owners, and the illegal gun owners, who got their illegal guns, from a illegal gun dealer?
"go back and answer the questions I've already asked you, if you continue to try and play this game with me I'll just add you to ignore list."
@Applesause
People killing innocent people with a lawful and illegal gun, are apparently, already playing real life games, with other people's lives, IE the public in general, and have been doing it for years now:
(Sexual assaults via a gun,
domestic violence, and abuse with a gun, murder/ suicide with a gun,
drive by shooting crimes with a gun,
mass murderers via a mass shooters gun violence,
car jackings with a gun,
robberies in general with a gun,
gun violence over drug deals, and so on,)

I feel sad, and sorry for the way that the public as whole, has been getting treated by the mass shooters crimes, and the lawful, and unlawful gun owners, who have murdered kids, teenagers, parents, and senior citizens, who have been killed in a country, that has manufactured more guns (393 million and growing) than there are living human beings (325 million) in the United States?
Would you ask the victims of those murdered loved ones, if you casted them in the very light of this very question, that you asked me, from the comforts of your computer, and the internet?
"Or are you may be too emotionally involved with media coverage specifics about the violence that you fail to see the complexities of the issue?"

What good would come of this needless question which has no relevance to the overall issue and would most likely just antagonize the victims and their families?
Go ahead, have a seat in front of them, and ask them, instead of hiding behind the Second Amendment?
Firstly, this would be disrespectful but that's not the point. The point is I am asking you. How about you form your own answers in your own words instead of relying on what you think someone else might say?
Secondly, citing the Second Amendment to me is useless as I am not even a US Citizen.
Thirdly, this is also irrelevant to the overall issue that we're supposed to be addressing.

So basically some of the pro gun talking heads on the internet, protect their guns, by, in a sense, hiding behind their Second Amendment ideologies, that favor their individual guns, over the victims that were killed by some of the lawful gun owners with their guns, and the thousands of guns, that were used to kill their victims, that were owned by the various criminals, and offenders, who have been killing innocent kids, parents, teenagers, and senior citizens now for years?
So basically from some of the pro gun owner extremist, and some of the pro gun owners, and the illegal gun owning criminals, and offenders, the Second Amendment, and lawfully, and unlawfully owning a gun, or a mass of weapons, is more important to those various gun owners, than the rest of the public is?

It was while ago I wrote this now and a lot has changed since then. I think I was referring to the guns that were used in recent mass shootings. One of my points was not that they were to blame for gun violence albeit they were used recently for very violent purposes, but I didn't and still don't see the necessity for them for self-defense when a handgun should suffice.
That is because the United State Constitutional which is amended by additions to basic principle as right to common defense to the general welfare are not for in whole truth self-defense. The burden of lethal force is shared equally between all men, citizens of an independent land to protect men who had served in battles of independence form the Royal Monarchies, Parliament, and Judicial laws of England, While also as united state addressing lethal force against military services men assigned to the colonies from the King of England....
A self-evident truth is created by creator. All men are created equal this includes Minutemen, enlisted militia, farmers, clerks and in-keeps.

It is not an excuse it is a justification used by some to not share an equal burden in common defense to the use of lethal force. There are many civil lawsuits which had been based on a basic principle of a transfer of burdens of true independence. Moving the burden of lethal force fully to the Congressional Armed Services and judicial separation.
The Draft of the Military can be proven to be unconstitutional. We cannot force a person to apply lethal force when necessary to secure a liberty for other people. This had a risk in the past and has risk now. This status does not interrupt the United State in Constitution which allows a non-military personnel congressional armed or other to by ownership of gun share equal a burden of lethal force with enlisted soldiers whom had to apply lethal force in preservation of the liberty of United State Constitution.
I may not have explained that in a basic way easy enough to understand. With liberty and greater expression of basic principle, I will try again. It sets a condition where a person who shoots someone in public and is not stopped, or shot by a witness to the shooting, as witness then share equally in the burden of the shooting.
The idea was acted out in the old westerns when a person who was forced to shoot in a duel would surrender the weapon and go before an appointed judge to make ruling on the actions of lethal force. This was so that other around them would not themselves be place in criminal danger. Then basic principle also played out often in the altercations involving a woman's honor in England and many parts of Europe.

they can't even define what's considered "high powered" are there low powered guns? silly terms meant to be open ended with no real definitions so they can be used/twisted to meet their agenda. Then there's the fallacy of placing the burden by saying why do you need x, irrelevant, no where in the constitution or b.o.r. is a needs test. Now consider the 1a, 4a just to name a few which are applied to new technology the founders couldn't have dreamed of, internet, tv etc. so to say they only meant it for those current times is another fallacy and fail argument.
these arguments are emotionally based which isn't sufficient to restrict inalienable rights.

Are they hiding behind the 2nd Amendment made on the United state of constitution under common defense or, is the 2nd Amendment applied to the gun owner by accusation of a crime publicly, to which their are now associated as a participant to a crime as untied state? In the construction of justice is United state in whole truth being used to explain in basic principle clearly the accusation of crime applied. committed by another? Lets for a moment presume the goal of education is whole truth, and not limited truth. Had the victim been armed capable of holding a burden of equality in application of lethal force, meaning they would not forever be dependent on someone for this service, would the outcome have changed? It is with sorrow and understanding of hardship truth is sometimes seen basically as a whole truth.
Can I also state for a whole truth a P.O.W. when captured and held prisoner are they not also relieved of the burden of United States Constitutional common defense to the general welfare, as united state?

The basic principle behind the argument you two have, is on common defense, a state of the union for one form of gun is not a united state with other guns of that same type. This is not truth. What is never legislated clearly is those who have been proven by United States Constitutional separation, under a name of justice, can be then united to be no longer fit for a burned of equality, set around the application of lethal force, this falls under the jurisdiction of some if not all gun law as a united state.
People are not children in school, taking away all toy’s is simply not appropriate in this matter. In whole truth taking away a toy is stealing in basic principle. Even when returned to the person the toy was taken from, in whole truth. The principle of punishment in a educational institution is not a guideline for punishment in a constitutional setting. Children are exposed to dangers of flood, fire, and animal. This includes people

"Also, it does not take a genius to work out what one means by "high powered" weapons and referencing mass shootings."
oh? so define it then and give the criteria for the definition and how and why it's applicable and what the standard it's being applied to, what is the standard powered gun which all others are judged.
"I am not entirely sure if everything you say here is factually correct."
seriously? you think the founding fathers had any notion about the internet, porn, video, digital media etc when they wrote the 1a? Because the 1a is applied all those modern things and will continue to be. The inconsistency comes from the statements that the founding fathers didn't mean the 2a to apply to modern weapons. I'm not saying you have done that which is why I didn't direct it at you. I don't recall if it was here or on another similar site but I took the time to review the "mass" murders from a biased liberal source and calculated the number of wounded vs killed. Guess what, the shootings with handguns had a higher % of people killed vs the ones with "assault rifles". But don't take my word for it look at the Vegas shooting, see how many were wounded and how many killed and come give us that % since if you do it some will consider it more credible. I don't recall if I could find an estimate as to how many shots were actually fired, but for some of them I did and again the % of that actually hit a target was very low. (just assault rifles don't know about handguns) If I can find where I did all that math I'll post it.

there's no "needs" test in the constitution or bill of rights.
"This actually proves my point about handguns being sufficient enough for self-defense; no need for "assault rifles" when handguns are perfectly capable for the job."
your point aka opinion is just that which I would defend your right to have.
what firearm an individual thinks is sufficient for themselves is subjective and individualistic, claiming to know what's best for everyone and forcing that opinion is totalitarian isn't it?

Firstly, I would just like to point out that I have made some alterations to my original post which you can see from about a few pages back from this one as I couldn't edit my original post. Based on some further reading there are some things where I agree that I would have to change my mind about what I said whereas in other things my stance remains unchanged.
Moreover, as for gun control, it depends on what you mean by this first of all. I personally am not for a complete ban in the US or for stopping and/or making it extremely difficult for guns getting into the hands of responsible law-abiding citizens. I am for, however, ways in which could reduce the guns getting into the hands of irresponsible people and criminals both legally and illegally.

Gun control does work. The truth here is in how it works and why in basic principle, if not in reduction of crime then how does it work. By publicly changing the burden of application of lethal force, is this a truth that can be proven? Can Gun control be used so some-one else must always hold the blame for a death as a united state. Is this better than a military draft system? When every one must own a gun everyone shares equal in the burden of lethal force with a gun, basic principle, harsh reality. Tests, taxes, responsibility all become equal. in one step. When that burden is legally lost every one will also be able to see it as having been lost by that person.
A law might be more effective in the holding and transportation of a loaded weapon and locked weapon. Where gun deaths may, or may not increase the burden of lethal force does not get singed it is put on the democracy directing exposure to danger by insuring a independence. Everyone who walks into a store knows they may be shot, it is not just the store owner who is directed into the line of fire. The thief who then walks into the store with a gun, or without knows in advance every one in the store, bank or home will have a gun.
The analogy her is do we want to make a left turn? Yes? We want to turn right? No, We want to turn left. Right is said left. Turn left? Do this again or just say correct? Turn left? Correct.
"A person can be the registered weapon. They are no more dangerous with a weapon than without, they are the weapon. Sometimes a right is really just a correct."
Rights reserved.

"LAPD releases dramatic video of police shootout following chase"
"After a short pursuit, the driver suddenly stopped and exited the car, then ran with a gun into the Pueblo Del Rio public housing project in LA's Central-Alameda neighborhood, Espinoza said.
The two officers chased after the driver, who they described as a black male, the video shows. But then, a second man wearing in a white shirt, who was later identified as Curley Duff, is seen approaching one of the officers, Enrique Trujillo, the video shows.
Duff, 39, pulled out a handgun from his waistband and shot at Trujillo, who then fired back several shots. Both men were injured in the gunfire. The first officer then doubled back to assist his partner."
The Second Amendment needs to be Amemded with Capital Punishment, because of incidents like the above.
Because in a sense, the second police officer, was apparently ambushed by the second man wearing a white t shirt?

First of all, we need to ensure the implementation of risk protection. I also found this article that describes how risk warrants issued and police removed the guns.
On the other hand, you should use the technology especially Artifical Intelligence in this regard. We need to increase the supply of metal detecting equipment and even applications. Though Apple is already working on this and many gun detection apps like this are available for iOS devices. For sure, some would also be available for Androids. These apps make collaboration with your security cameras and can alert you in case of any problem.
We should deal the gun voilence issue at our health centers. Yes, both psychological and physical health disorders play a great role to increase gun voilence. In addition, we need to increase positivity especially among youth and try to engage them into healthy and constructive activites. Schools and companies should invite the motivational speakers to change mindset in this regard.
Gun sellers should ask for background checkups from all buyers. However, no gun should be given to any local abuser. Actually, need to disarm local abusers.
Police should also try to change their behaviour and there should be no distrust between the complainee and police.

1. Strict laws don't and can't account for crime rates. There has never been a direct correlation between laws and crime statistics...that's a fact. Even the Assault Weapon Ban has been admitted as having "No clear impact" on gun-related crime and violence. Second to this is the fact that your supposed regulations on gun owners would have zero effect on the vast majority of gun-related crime which is done with an illegally obtained firearm that had nothing to do with a legal gun owner.
2. Imposing more taxes and financial burden on the citizens in regards to "Ensuring proper training" isn't going to go over well and there's no evidence to suggest that it would even work. There has never been a standard for training in order to own a firearm and therefor any imposed standard at this point would be unconstitutional.
3. Restricting the law enforcement agency further than it already is will inevitably lead to a decline in the law enforcement population. You'd be surprised how hard it is to find U.S. citizens that don't have a criminal record who think that subjecting themselves to the heaviest scrutiny in the country is a cool idea.
4. The war on drugs has failed at EVERY level in the United States. They can't keep drugs off the street, out of schools, out of businesses, they can't even keep them out of PRISONS and JAILS! What makes you think that MORE of what we've already been doing is going to change the outcome?
Here's my proposition:
1. When criminals terrorized a town, the people send in representatives with Guns to solve the problem.
2. When criminals robbed banks, the banks hire representatives with Guns to solve the problem.
3. When criminals robbed trains, the train company hired representatives with Guns to solve the problem.
4. When criminals caused chaos, turmoil and strife in a city, the city hired representatives with Guns to solve the problem.
So my conclusion is that with all this historical precedence of Guns being used to solve the issues plaguing our Nation...why is it now that we suddenly think that ink and paper will serve as a substitute for lead and gunpowder? If someone breaks into your home in the middle of the night...there's no amount of writing or typing that's going to stop them from hurting you and your family. Contrary beliefs are a great way to end up dead and no longer part of the argument.
Lastly, what exactly does everyone here think a "High powered weapon" is? I see an INCREDIBLE amount of slinging this terminology around with "Willy nilly" attitude. I'm seeing a specific comparison being made between handguns and "High powered weapons"...exactly what does everyone think the difference here is? Is there truly a consensus out there that handguns are somehow...less powerful than rifles? Unless you're talking about something above .308 caliber in rifle ammunition...then there's no such things as "More powerful" when standing a rifle up to a handgun.
Handguns are approximately 80% smaller than rifles, can fit into your pocket, belt, jacket, shoe, pant leg...there's really no limit to where you can conceal them. On top of this, the most popular handguns generally carry 15 rounds in the magazine...16 if you keep on in the chamber. For the weight of 5 magazines for an AR-15, you can carry more than 10 pistol magazines and they're smaller. Pistols can be reloaded faster than rifles unless you're talking about a revolver. Pistols account for the vast majority of firearm related deaths in the U.S. So how is it that rifles are being referred to as "High powered weapons". How is this power being measured? If it's by the number of deaths they cause...then they're not very powerful. If it's by "Stopping or Knockdown power" then they're not very powerful. If it's by "Potential for killing", then they're not very powerful. The only thing "High powered" about a rifle is the effective range you can engage targets. This means that the bullet (Once it exits the barrel) will travel further and faster before losing it's accuracy and ultimately falling to the ground or missing the target completely...so we're talking about sniping essentially. When's the last time we had a sniper epidemic? Never. "High powered" has become a trigger term to inflame people into their social justice warrior rage.

You argue just like the NRA does.
How about a pro toddler, pro family, pro Public safety argument, from yourself, to educate the Public with?
Instead of an argument, that self supports your pro gun stance?
I don't care if any gun is a 38, 9mm, 45 cal, 40 call, 5.56 mms, or 7.62 mms, 240 coax, 50 cal or what have you.
There are 400 million plus guns in the United States, and there is ZERO accountability for all of them, the legal, and the illegal guns both.
And now some of those guns are Murder weapons.

My position, the Second Amendment, in a sense doesn't belong to you, and it doesn't belong to the NRA, either.
It doesn't belong to @CYDdharta.
And it didn't belong to Nicholas Cruz, Stephen Paddock, or to the Odessa Texas mass shooter Seth Ator, either.
And it doesn't belong to me either, being that it, belongs to the the ENTIRE PUBLIC, as a whole?
Are you pro family, and pro public safety when it comes to your individual pro gun stance?

Public Service Announcement
Would you trust a bank to protect your hard earned money without implementing effective security measures that included the use of firearms for security personnel? Well neither does the FDIC! That being said, your Children are more important that your money, we can all agree to that. If your money deserves the best protection available then so do your Children, don't be that Mom or Dad that leaves the safety and security of your most precious assets to someone else who might not show up for 20 to 30 minutes after their lives have already been put in danger!When criminals put you and your Family in danger, who do you rely on to show up and protect you? That's right, the local law enforcement agencies. That being said, local law enforcement agencies require on average that their employees qualify once to twice per year with their service weapon. If Cops can hit the range twice each year to qualify in providing you with life saving professional service then you can easily do the same thing!
I'm Vaulk and I come from 12.5 years of active Military service in Reconnaissance and I'm here to tell you right now, that the average adult is more than capable of defending themselves with a firearm and furthermore is capable of defending others in a responsible manner with a firearm during a high-intensity armed conflict. I've spent years training average every-day civilians in responsible firearm use for high-stress combat situations and I can tell you with supreme confidence that the average adult needs nothing more than a single day each year of range training and instruction to prepare them to effectively respond to a life-threatening scenario with an active shooter.
Arming yourself isn't for everyone, some people don't take to it very well. That being said, MOST people can handle it very well and given the choice between hiding and praying that the shooter doesn't find and kill you or standing your ground with a handgun and taking your life into your own hands...most people would rather have the latter.
Now that the PSA is over. Look bubba, I'm going to just spit pure logic here. If there's zero accountability for these guns in the United States...then you can't say that there's 400 million plus guns in the United States.
Zero accountability = No way to know how many there are, who has them, where they came from or what they're being used for. This is just pure logic.
TKDB said: So, I'm not sure how else to explain this other than: Your argument doesn't compute. Either you don't know how many there are or the statement about zero accountability is largely exaggerated and therefor inaccurate.
Lastly, yes there are murder weapons out there. That said, the guns we need to worry about...are the ones that the law can't account for. Laws don't stop crimes...never have...never will. There is no clear correlation between laws and crime statistics which means that there's "ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY" in regards to the laws we have and how they affect crime.
If you're a criminal (You make a living off of committing crimes) and you have a homeboy who will sell you a fresh 9mm for $100, do you think the next time you go to buy a new piece from him that he's gonna tell you something like "Sorry , new law went into effect, can't sell you this piece unless you get that Felony expunged "? Laws don't stop criminals from committing crimes, they only serve to punish them afterwards. Some of the laws serve to deter citizens from BECOMING criminals but do nothing to stop those already decidedly criminal.
Removing guns from the equation won't work, we've seen the results of this in places like London where you're so incredibly likely to get stabbed that the government is putting restrictions on flat-head screwdrivers. The answer to the issue of criminals using guns is to equalize yourself to the point where you can protect yourself. The police are NOT going to be able to protect you or your personal property from criminals...it falls on you to do it yourself.
