@JohnBrowning:
The “militia” is You, we, us. I’m sorry your understanding of history is not strong. May I recommend reading the following:
1) The US Constitution
2) The diaries of G. Washington, J. Adams, and T. Jefferson. You can purchase them on Amazon
3) STOP believing what the TV is telling you.

I am sorry you folks think weapons designed to kill many people at one time as maybe needed in war is for the masses. Any weapon that can kill or injure 26 people in 32 seconds is not a gun as imagined in all of history. That’s like saying you can own a bazooka, a military tank or hand gernades and run it on the streets and it is protected by the second amendment. The NRA has poisoned your minds and your souls.

Another 20-30 small concessions after each event, and soon you will be using a nerf gun to protect your family.

@John Browning

And who is the well regulated militia?

We are.

We do not need to pass laws that turn law abiding gun owners into felons. As far as Parkland, that guy was all over the radar and remember the cops went to his house quite a bit.

Hope he gets it done. The law should have never passed.

Hopefully Mr. Hill’s 2020 legislative session will be just as successful as his 2019 term.

@Libertarian

The Second Amendment also contains the words, “a well-regulated Militia.”

Walnut thinker, Your reasoning is flawed. There is no proof that a waiting period ever stopped someone from committing a crime with a gun. Most people who commit crimes involving a gun use guns that are obtained illegally. “If it stops one shooting alone isn’t it worth it” Why not apply that logic to everything. Outlaw cell phones and look how many lives would be saved, or better yet just put an age limit on cell phone use that alone would save thousands of lives. Even better stop kids from driving until they are 21. before you call me crazy, in an article by the Tallahassee Democrat on April 4th 2017, it was reported” According to AAA, cell phone distraction caused nearly 60 percent of teen accidents and 21 percent fatalities in 2017. “why have we not seen protests over texting and driving that kills over 11 teenagers every day?….” Is it right to take away an individual’s gun, but let the protesters keep their cell phones while driving?”….The latest Florida Department of Transportation statistics available as of 2018, report 3,477 people died, and another 341,000 injured in motor vehicle crashes in 2015 caused by drivers who were distracted while they were texting or using their cell phone.”
So if you are really concerned about saving lives and not being politically correct start pushing for Phone control, and leave my constitutional right alone, please. there I was nice about.
