Gun control is directly forbidden by the Bill of Rights, and the 14th.
Why do people not understand this?

We were born with a brain as our only weapon. We are physically outclassed by almost every beast on the planet.
So we level the field by using our best weapon....a brain that innovates solutions.

I do not think that would help. Generally the same people who don't want to be forced into paying for health insurance are the same ones that promote the most liberal interpretation of the 2nd amendment. I think there is zero chance such mandatory insurance could ever get through Congress, nor should it.

You are correct. Rights are NON NEGOTIABLE, compromising on ones RIGHT's makes them no longer RIGHT's but privileges afforded by the government. RIGHT's are given to us by our Creator, not by some creation of men. This goes for ALL RIGHT's, not just the 2A.
Feelings do not have a factor in the debate, RIGHT's are RIGHT's feelings have NOTHING to do with this.
So the short answer is No Compromise on ANY of Our RIGHT's, end of debate.

What does the US do to help combat the GUN problem?
Create over 75 years of gun control laws 'crazy' people don't obey.
But whose counting anyway?
Ammiright?
There is no gun problem.
People pick them up.
People aim them.
People pull the trigger.
People break a myriad of laws.
When will people stop blaming objects for the actions of a person that is in already violation of existing LAWS?
Its beyond amazing! Its the very reason there is such a gun problem!!

What gun problem??
Because everything is fine and dandy in the USA.
School shooting are perfectly normal and a sign of a healthly, stable society.......
The denial on this thread is amazing.....
When a constitution does not support society and ensure the safety of our children whilst at school then surely the constitution needs to be updated to reflect the threat it poses to society and people!!

And the constitution is part of the problem and does not help protect children in today's BANG BANG society.

What does not wanting to be forced into paying healthcare insurance have to do with the Second Amendment ? Why is it a liberal interpretation ? There is no interpreting the Constitution except for the Supreme Court. And why would it be a liberal interpretation ? The Supreme Court has agreed multiple times.
Forcing folks at the cost of a penalty to purchase anything is against the Constitution . That is why the treacherous Obama changed the word from penalty to tax.
So , without knowing anything , you want to impose another penalty on the citizens of the US ? To be able to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights they have to pay a penalty ?
Forcing anyone to give up their firearms (other than someone tried and convicted of a felony) is against the 2nd. Again , the Supreme Court has agreed multiple times.
Not going to happen.....
I recommend you stop absorbing BS and learn something of the US Constitution for yourself
And that applies to the OP as well.
