People who think everyone should have the right to have as many weapons on their possession or in their house, and should be able to have repeating assault weapons are very sick! The intent of The United States Constitution with regards to the people being able to protect themselves was NEVER that each citizen should be able to keep firearms in his/her home. It was thatcommuniyies should have the right to defend themselves against outside threats by being able to organise an armed militia, which means storing arms in a central location [[armory), and dispersing them in time of need. They did NOT intend for anyone to go to an arms sale convention and buy masses of assault weapons and walk the streets carrying concealed weapons and run around killing who they please. The arms producers and vendors have much too much power in USA as do other billionaires. The society is very sick. They allow a ridiculous amount of dangerous arms to be used, murder is rampant, they don't want their basic population to have adequate health care, healthy food, education, they don't care about trying to get decent housing for hundreds of thousands of homeless people. I could go on and on. That is supposedly the greatest nation in The World. I don't think it is, by a longshot.
I am afraid that the only answer is for the basic population to take responsibility and organise to make an effort to do something about this. Just as Hitler's Germany couldn't have been so monstrous without the compliance of its average citizens, the powers in USA couldn't get away with all this, if the basic population would decide they've had enough, and take some action.
