I thought the problem was solved on December 15, 1791. That is the date the Bill of Rights was ratified.

A while back we had a "lively" discussion on gun control and the 2nd amendment. Why are we going over these issues again? Has anything changed?"A while back we had a "lively" discussion on:"Erections -ShavedGenitals -Driving Nude -Cooking Nude -Exposing ones self to the neighbors -Answering the door naked. - And Maaany more. -Shall we refrain from "going over these issues again?" OR Should we check with you first before we go over past issues?

Slave states also had laws that prohibited blacks from owning or using guns. Why was that? They knew that an armed slave was no longer a slave. The reason the founders of this Nation provided for the ownership of guns by the populace was because they knew that unarmed citizens would beat the mercy of a tyrannical government.
It is human nature that those in power will seek to increase their power in all ways possible. That innate desire is offset by the checks and balances provided by our Constitution. One ofthose checksis the second amendment.

Your argument leaves out any civilizing factor in society. It assumes that people are still basically neanderthal.

Video of police car striking pop up barrier, causing the horrendous damage to it, seen in many pictures. Many stories implied the woman caused this damage by striking the vehicle herself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao3617loZ0kThanks for posting this My pleasure. Knowledge is power.
