If they raise the voting age to 25, maybe, but it would unconstitutional as the 2nd Amendment protects 18+ to properly arm up to fight the federal government in the event it goes near full totalitarian.

THAT is just TOO IMPORTANT to trim any of it back due to these awful murders due to cowardly cops and boys with no fathers.

No.

That is missing out in the current debate. It's in case we deal with a Hitler, a Stalin or a Mao in our government.

Our government is messy with freedoms it provides sometimes. We cannot assume that our government would always remain beign (Japanese government after WWII).

I don't think anyone trusts our government right now, look at what happened with 1/6/21 protestors.

But your 2nd amendment is keeping the federal government honest (somewhat) so far.

“WE THE PEOPLE of the United States, in order to....the right of the people to keep and bear arms...”

There is a strong correlation between the right to vote and the right to keep and bear arms.
