I support the 2nd amendment but there's got to be screening regulation put in place to protect the people and also types of fire arms. We don't have that today...people only focusing on the "right" but they forgot the consequences that attached to that right. $$ is a huge factor and sometime people are using the 2nd amendment for that as well.
have you tried buying a gun? often times, one would need to complete a gun course, get a purchase permit from the local sheriff, pass their background check, pass the NICS system (a federal (FBI) background check system) at the ffl dealer and may still have to wait through the waiting period...last but not least, you may even get denied by discretion from the ffl dealer. it isn't as easy as going into a gun store choose a gun, pay and walk out. The NICS is already strict enough that not everyone who wants a gun can't have. it is already an infringement on the people's right, but the government has it in place to weed out criminals and others who are not allowed to own guns like minors.
you mentioned types of firearms, there is no difference in the action of every gun and it's purpose. we've already banned fully automatic weapons, assault weapons and "
weapons of mass destruction," in the hands of civilians. An AR15 (for those idiots, AR does not stand for
ASSAULT
RIFLE) to a AK or to a handgun, it functions to a single pull of the trigger...if you ban one, all will be banned...then we'll just have mass stabbings like london.
