[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do we remove 400,000,000 guns from America?[/quote]

the same way we eliminate all cars and so ensure no drunk driving vehicular homicides.  Which is to say, not happening.  Focus on the drivers/shooters, not on the mechanical devices they use.  [/quote]

That is a minority position.  The majority of citizens want increased regulations around guns [/quote]

Majority opinions are irrelevant to rights guaranteed under the Constitution, which exist precisely to avoid tyranny by a majority.  [/quote]

And these are subject to interpretation by the courts.  Ask women, who had a Constitutionally protected right to abortion until suddenly they didn’t.  Was there a new amendment, or was there a new set of SCOTUS justices?[/quote]

Off-topic, but I'll bite.  Unlike the 2nd Amendment, there was no formal Amendment granting the right to an abortion.  It was a Constitutional interpretation that even Justice Ginsburg thought was weak.  Now compare the 2nd Amendment to the 1st Amendment and you'll have a more apples-to-apples situation.[/quote]
