You give me way too much credit.

Sure, but that right is not absolute. You have plenty of regulations and laws concerning various aspects of firearm ownership and usage.

"Well-regulated" in the parlance of the time when the 2A was written does not mean what you think it does. It meant "proficient". An updated read of the 2A would be: A "proficient" militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

In a nutshell: "the amendment protects a right to possess a firearm unconnected to military service and that individuals are free to use such weapons for “traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home." |

This is a result of who we've ignorantly handed the education of our children over to. If our children were firearms they've had so many weird features "installed" that they'd jam after a bullet or two.

I can not decide what you will post in the future it's not my task to tell you what to post or not.
But I tell you after I saw this interview with this man from Texas late last night I became sad-So don't come here with your or that's terrible. What he said-It's our God given right to own and bear arms. Because you seem to worship your gun more than you worship life. I'm sorry if someone may feel hurt by this post. Markus

I don't think we have a "gun problem" in the US
We have a "People choosing to kill people" problem in the US. The first step in problem solving is to properly identify and bound the problem without presupposing a solution. A "gun problem" presupposes a "gun solution". And that's not the problem. But let's be honest. It is easier to focus on the gun than on the person. Solving mental health issues is a lot more difficult and uncomfortable to deal with. For a politician, it is much easier to pass yet another gun law and then pat themselves on the back for "doing something". And some voters fall for this.

^ Its a cultural problem.
History and roots of own origin form present culture. Culture forms behaviour, definition of perception and expectation. If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail - and if you glorify violence in a culture, you tend to see violence as the only valid problem solving method. You know no other. Its the past that brought us to where we are. American today culture is what was sown back then. Its hard to run free from your shadow.

What this man also said was that too few good men had their own gun. Good men would take out the bad guys he said.

The 18-year-old behind tragic school shooting in Uvalde could be an angry young man, but was not a monster, says mother.
The 18-year-old man who on Tuesday killed 19 children and 2 teachers at an elementary school in Texas is being taken in defense by his mother. In an interview with American ABC News, Adriana Reyes says that her deceased son "was not a monster", but she also acknowledges that he could "be aggressive". Markus
