... "Weapons laws in this nation need to be changed. When Burr killed Hamilton there was just one shot available in the gun. The founding fathers never imaged a 31-clip semi-automatic handgun, which a deranged person can legally obtain."

Submitter's Note: Okay, A) multi-shot "pepper-box revolvers" were available starting in the 15th century. 2) You want compromise?

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
