      I am pro second amendment. I believe the constitution explicitly grants the states the right to regulate militias.

        Fun facts: The 2nd amendment was created before bullets let alone bump stocks. Kamala was a gun owner. Trump isn’t allowed to own one because he’s a convicted rapist.

          It’s because he’s a convicted felon. The rape thing was in civil court.

          Not just before bullets and rifling, but firearms were single shot muzzle loaded.

      Im pro 2ndA Democrat as well but this who thing is pretty damning proof that there is no need for guns because we Wouldn’t use them anyways.

      But damn guns are fun to shoot… But im not sure the pros outweigh the cons anymore since the biggest pro seems to be a lie and the biggest con is how many of us die needlessly to them.
