The Constitution of the United States is the work of brilliant minds. It has ensured liberty for over 200 years and has created a system of government that made the United States the most dominant country in the world.
...but it's time that we acknowledged that it is outdated. The world has changed greatly since 1788. The vast majority of the founders responsible for that document would surely acknowledge that weapons have become so violent that the security of our citizens is vastly more important than preserving the outdated notion that weapons protect us from abusive governments.
Gun violence in the United States is an epidemic. Let's put aside our reverence for the constitution and its authors and put an end to our national shame.

What you say is true I agree completely! However I am not to concerned with other governments at this time. I am concerned with our society we live in on our own soil and people all around us. I have a family to protect! With the times being what they are i will surrender my weapons after they get them from all our convicts and thugs in our society today. I am afraid i will have to wait to be convinced of this before I make a action as radical and miscalculated as that and leave my pants down around my ankles. I will wait to be last. There is no shame in knowing you might at any time have to protect loved ones and friends.

Your gun ownership is the essence of freedom. Never give it up. You not having a gun will not help gun crime rates. Laws that prevent you from owning a gun will not make anyone safer.
Thinking that taking away guns will make the world safer is like thinking, if we kill all female babies, prostitution will end.
no it won't, the pimps will turn men out instead. Don't think so, check out your nearest prison.
making someone less safe will not make anyone else safer.

As an American, (I'm assuming you are, with the internet you never know)you have a right to say whatever you want. I will defend that with my dying breath because that is the law of this land.
As an American, so do I. I say, get the hell out of my America before I beat you over the head with a copy of the Constitution.
I will scream it from the highest mountain peak and it will be true
FREEDOM IS EVERYTHING!!!!!
you have plenty of choices in places to live where the Constitution has no effect. I have only one choice. There's only one Constitution, so far.
quit shitting in my yard bulldog.

When the folk of the scots highlands were disarmed in seventeen forty -six it facilitated the british establishment clearing these people from their lands to make way for hunting estates and sheep farming,the highlands are de-populated to this day and the scottish socialist party are waiting for the soon coming independence in europe to begin a re-population ;there will be enough room for everyone and pasrticularly welcome are those fleeing persecutio for it has beenthe scots tradition since the declaration of arbroath in twelve ninety-eight that as long as seven armed men remain alive we will never give upor our freedoms or submit to english domination from westminster london,The ssp are a republican party and support the re-introduction of shhooting sports to scotland which were banned by westminster in a knee-jerk reaction following the dunblane massacre of ninety-six.AS SCOTS GET POORER UNDER THE PRESENT TORY GOVERMENT THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN CRIMINAL VIOLENCE AND MANY WANT GUNS HERE TO PROTECT THEIR LOVED ONES.THEMSELVES AND THEIR PROPERTYCCSERX
