Imagine your morning commute with no traffic lanes, stop signs, traffic signals or speed limits. None of these existed prior to the advent and proliferation of the automobile. Society adapted to changes in transportation and progressed accordingly.
When the Second Amendment was adopted, the weapon du jour was a slow-loading musket. As with the automobile, weapons have been developed in the past 200 years on the basis of increased destruction to be used for military operations. There is absolutely no place or justification for assault weapons or bump-stock conversion kits in the general population. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
