[QUOTE="Gregg C, post: 1712101, member: 103471"] I believe a lot of the problem lies in complete and total ignorance of WHY the 2nd Amendment was put in place to begin with. But trying to inform and educate such a person is maddening at best, and futile at worst. I find that most people believe that the framers in general were uneducated illiterate country pumpkins, or they were uber wealthy land owners who only wanted to protect their own interests. Young people who have not studied this history have been indoctrinated and brainwashed in the public schools that they attended. And their brains have washed completely out of use. It seems as though these folks are completely unable to think for them selves. If you don't have a PHD in front of your name, nothing you say has merit. Maddening, I say. Just look at these so called confiscation laws in proposal. If some one makes a complaint that a gun owner seems unstable, then their arms can be confiscated. But wait, isn't that against basic rights ? If that person has not committed a crime, seems to me like this is trampling all over the Constitution. But then, that seems to be the way things are going. Freedom of Speech ? Yeah, not so much. Freedom of Assembly ? Well, as long as you are on the left side. [/QUOTE]
