I support the 2nd amendment, but not to the extremes that some people go. I believe that people lawfully abiding in the U.S. should be able to purchase high powered rifles/handguns and use them for recreational/hunting/defense.
But here is a question I don't understand. Why do people whine about not being able to own fully automatic sub machine guns and assault rifles? Now the argument can be made that "well it's in the Constitution." True, but the founders of this country couldn't have foreseen the gun violence that is happening now. When the people are given too much power, we tend to abuse it (much like politicians).
I live in Kalifornia, so I have seen the impact of gun violence on friends and acquaintances. This state is also full of extreme left wing bureaucrats (I'm a Democrat).
