Why do we need guns? When the "Founding Fathers" decreed all citizens have the right bear arms is that the be all end all discussion on guns for eternity? Just because it was right more than 200 years ago doesn't mean it's right today. 200 years ago the country was under constant threat from OUTSIDE powers, like the British, French, Natives, Spanish...citizens didn't arm themselves against eachother but together against foreign threats. Last time I checked, I don't think the Canadian Army was eyeing Buffalo too closely. Who is looking into the death by guns in 1776? 20,000 British, 3000 French, oddly 4 white male suicides and 6 year old Billy Bob bustin a cap in 4 year old brother Jimbo's noggin while playing with Daddy's gun. In my opinion it is an outdated policy that does much more harm than good.
