if we are going to have a frank discussion about gun violence, let’s start with fact that 3% of the population commits 75% of the gun murders.

let’s talk about what “common sense” would say to do about the gun violence problem in this context.

Since it isn't written:

The Right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed unless the People deserveth it not

It really doesn't matter, does it?

"Is the U.S. still deserving of a 2nd Amendment?"

The fact that the left would ask such a question is proof that the Founders were 100% correct that we do.

“Welcome to the new normal.”

Screw you and your “new normal”. Who wrote that crap anyway?

A news item that emerged a few days ago seemed to encapsulate the increasing helplessness that has gripped America as gun violence reaches new heights.

Bullsuit. Gun violence has not reached new heights and the 2A was and is not contingent on present or future crime statistics.

"dying culture???

It dies when we let it!"

What kind of people would twice elect a man like Barack Hussein Obama to be their leader?

I'm afraid our once proud American culture died in November 2008 and was pronounced dead in November 2012.

Actually with every terrorist organization on the planet making direct threats against the citizens of this country, what I DESERVE is to have my full rights restored by this criminal government immediately! My rights as defined by our founders ARMS is defined as the standard issue infantry rifle, which is currently being infringed.

More and more our society produces creatures that think this article is the stuff of a convincing argument rather than mock-worthy tripe.

The mass shootings *inside of schools* started after the gun free school zone act was passed in 1994.
