First of all, I would just like to say that I am a proud gun owner and I strongly support the 2nd amendment.
The world, America specifically, is a completely different place today in 2017 then it was in 1791 when the 2nd amendment was written. Time changes everything and it seems like the only thing that hasn't changed in the past 226 years ago is the 2nd amendment. I would like to propose some tough, but fair changes to the 2nd amendment that are needed.
!) Have the 2nd amendment specify exactly which arms Americans have a right to bare. "The Right to Bare Arms" is incredibly unspecific and leaves a lot of questions floating around. I would like to see all assault weapons banned under the 2nd amendment. No one needs assault weapons, and no one needs weapons that have more than 10 bullets in a clip. I have owned guns for close to three decades and have never needed to use more than 3 bullets at once. By banning assault rifles, we would be able to prevent a lot of the senseless gun violence happening in America.
2) I would like to see the 2nd amendment specify a minimum age for firearm ownership. Firearms are extremely deadly weapons and they need to be respected. Only mature adults with fully developed brains should have access to them. It would be an incredible change to make it so no one younger than 25 is allowed to have firearms. This would also prevent a lot of the firearm violence in America as most mass shooters are in their early 20's.
3) Give the government the ability to take firearms from whoever, whenever, and for any reason. It is the governments job to keep us safe. And if they have the ability to take guns away from dangerous people, we will all be so much safer.
I have many more arguments to present but these are my three most strongest ones. If you have nothing intellectual to contribute to this post please move on.
I agree with you, I am simply suggesting some positive changes to their legislation which would make their country a much better place.

Stopped reading at point 3 Taking guns away for no reason. What's the point of the amendment at all? It sounds like you just want a permit to be able to get a gun that the gov can take away if they feel like it.

for what it's worth... i've evolved my position on this somewhat.
first, the 2nd amendment is about SELF-Defense. you use a gun for Any other unlawful purpose, that's attempted murder (possibly) with a deadly weapon.
second, most NRA members are not going to be the ones shooting up schools or movie theaters or nightclubs, those are whackos who fell off the map of society.
I was wrong to think that "more guns" means "let's all just threaten and shoot at each other all day, everyday"
most gun owners (I would think) would be appalled by such a society...
instead, it's about self-defense and most importantly self-discipline and responsibility.
Jayden Smith
And how do you propose to enforce all that? If a criminal shoots up your house with a 30 round semi-auto and all you have is a legal bolt action, and all the cops have are 9mm ten shot pistols and they are 45 minutes away? Your proposition Number 3 completely negates the second and forth amendments, so stop pretending that you support the second amendment, you do not. It is YOUR responsibility to keep yourself safe. The government can not an will not do it. You are giving up freedom, under the illusion that government can solve every problem. You, therefore, do not possess the mental capacity to vote, and should not be allow to own a firearm. As for the rest of us, we will have to take up the burden of defending you.

Samuel Nelson
Assuming you're not baiting, let me counterpoint you.
1.) It's unspecific for a reason. Every American has the right to bear arms. This shall not be infringed. This is a core tenet of our nation, as it is both the right and responsibility of the common folk of our Great Republic to ensure the government does not overstep into tyranny. Senseless gun violence is but a tiny price to pay for security from tyranny when the tree of liberty cries out for watering.
2.) If an American is old enough to enlist in the Armed Services and die for the freedoms of his nation, he is old enough to enjoy the fruits of those freedoms and to protect himself, his family, and his Republic.
3.) The Government is the chief reason the second amendment exists. The people of the nation itself are the most fearsome and powerful check in the system of balances our Republic employs. Yes, the government has drones and tanks etc; but you cannot govern an armed populace by force. Boots on the ground. Military realities.
I will gladly rebut any further points you have, and I appreciate your time in attempting to subvert and undermine the glorious Republic of the United States of America. Fifteen cents has been deposited by the queen into your weak-kneed milk-drinking Trudeau-sponsored Soros-funded Government Retirement Accountâ„¢

Canadian shit doesn't understand the purpose of the second amendment in the first place

Gavin Morris
My improved second amendment:
>The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Arms may not be taxed. Arms may not be restricted. Arms may not be licensed, tracked or registered. "Arms" is defined herein to mean "any items, objects, structures or vehicles which are meant to, or may be, used for combat, warfare or defense."
Note that this is all already implied by "shall not be infringed." This change would only be to clarify the intent of the bill.

You are in the most cowardly fashion, asking other men in the form of government to take away the freedom and right to self defense of your peers. You will not be one of those who confiscate guns, because you only value your safety, and you are lobbying others to exercise control on your behalf without risking anything yourself.

They could have put an age restriction, but they didn't. They could have banned cannons, but they didn't. They could have said one gun each, but they didn't. They could have banned wooden warships with 40 cannons, but they didn't.
The right of the people to bear arms shall not be infringed.

Thomas Hall
The military swears an oath to the constitution, not the government dumbfuck. If issued completely unlawful orders (such as attack american citizens doing nothing wrong) soldiers can and will disobey those orders. There was a large survey throughout the NCOs of the military to see what would happen if they were repeatedly given orders to fire on Americans. The NCOs would frag the officer giving those orders in a majority of cases.

Actually, humans are basically the same. There has been no significant evolution of humans since ~17nn so what was true then is true today. People in power pretty much always try to stay in power and gain more power, this has not changed. The clothes, technology, and smell have changed, but the humans that seek power are the same assholes as the ones that were in power in ~17nn.
