But how in hell’s creation does one morally justify letting a private citizen own a military-grade weapon such as an AR-15 for the purpose of pleasure or hunting? They were made for one purpose: to kill people.
I agree that we must learn ways to eliminate senseless killings. And the first step is to realize that our forefathers never envisioned such firepower from a single weapon having the ability to kill mass numbers of our innocent citizens. I would like to think that if they were clairvoyant, the Second Amendment would have been reworded to define “reasonable” arms. |

| If SOME people would learn, not just the Bill of Rights, but how they were debated and finally formed they would shut up and let more learned people talk !!!! |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
