Today's Cartoons 11/29 started with Guns. There hasn't been a school shooting lately so, it has been out of the news. There was supposed to be one but, the authorities found them out before one bullet was fired.

Depending on how and who reads the 2nd. Amendment, you either can or cannot have a gun. You have the Right to Bear Arms but, do you have to be part of a Well Regulated Militia? Does a Police Department fall under that heading, what about the National Guard? I don't think our Forefathers meant the 2nd. Amendment to be ambiguous nor did they write it that way. During their time having a gun was not an issue. I believe they thought, it would remain a non issue.

As we all know today, it is an issue. We have failed to keep it a non issue by doing nothing, while guns kept being made, sold to anybody, no questions asked. The few Gun Control laws the government has are weak, with loopholes. The States were given the responsibility to control the sale of guns, few do their jobs to make an impact. The lobby of the NRA rides herd over the Congress to ensure the flow of Guns keeps coming.

The only way this issue can be settled is be compromise on both sides. It is unfortunate that the NRA does not know what that word means, until they do Automatic guns such as the AK-47, will be allowed to be sold for hunting. The NRA does not trust this type of gun to be banned. They believe if they give in, all guns will eventually be off the market. The NRA refuses to budge from this stance.
