As the saying goes , take one for the team. The NRA and other gun advocates need to take one for the team. In a perfect world, there would be no reason to have a weapon in the first place. But in this world, good folks need to be protected from folks who would misuse their "rights"

What's interesting is that if this were a flare up of drunk drivers , noone would have a problem with changing the laws and stiffening drunk driving sentances...

But we would have a problem restricting access to alcohol for everyone based on the actions of a few. Thats the difference.

the make my day law in denver.

I dont see the word ''state'' in the 2nd ammendment. IF it was for the ''state'' militia... who would provide them the guns and regulate them? The same govt they were fighting against?

Also numerous Castle Doctrine laws. The most basic application of the 2nd amendment would be for protection inside ones home, this is common sense. Come one folks, you either believe in freedom or not. The constitution exists as a foundation for government and exists as a whole to be built upon, but the foundation is always intact.

I was in agreement until the home protection part...

I'm sorry but the second amendment only applies to state militias. What law is in place to allow "home protection" via use of firearm?

Section 311 of US Code Title 10, entitled, "Militia: composition and classes" in its entirety:

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.

(b) The classes of the militia are —

(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and

(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

Didn't Florida extend "home" to mean "car" too? Essentially, justification of deadly force to protect property? (I predict laptops and cellphones are next)

Texas and florida both extend castle to autos. Quite frankly I think its good because if any son of a bitch wants to carjack me my first instinct if I have my gun isnt to just get out and hand him the keys.

Yeah it would be much more entertaining to see his face when you pulled the trigger.
