    Ironically it’s probably because of all the unwanted children due to legal or cultural prohibitions on abortion that cause the misery needed to lead to school shootings. Aside from that, people sucking does not mean I lose my rights. Tell the media to stop reporting gang shootings near schools as school shootings and drive-bys as mass shootings. Tell the media to stop publicizing the shooters and making them “interesting” to the public. Lots of that shit is copycats.

      You don’t have the right to make a nuclear bomb in your backyard, either.

      When they passed laws against drinking and driving, people complained that the government was taking away their rights. Same with requiring you to wear a seatbelt.

        When a nuclear bomb becomes something a regular person can make without a nation-state worth of backing let me know them we can worry about that.

        As far as driving goes it has never been a right guaranteed by the constitution. Maybe they’d have a point if it was.

          Where is it written in the Constitution again? The 2nd Amendment? So it’s only in there because the Constitution can be changed?

            And? Then change it then. If the 2nd Amendment is still there and not repealed then it’s a moot argument. Stop trying to whittle more and more of the right guaranteed by the 2nd by couching it in “common sense” bullshit.
