Wave your hands in the air and say that it can't be done and you end up with laws like these. If you tell regular people that there is nothing we can do about insane people with guns, they will be far more likely to vote to heavily restrict all gun ownership. How about we start with suicides? Make a dent in that number and you have a HUGE impact on the number of 'gun deaths'. I don't like anyone committing suicide, least of which gun owners.
I know this is part of the bigger issue or mental health, but this is our part of the problem. Unless we come up with a solution, a solution will be made for us.
The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.
