That may have been true when the second amendment was penned... but it is most definitely not true now. Plus, we now have more than one gun for every man, woman, and child in the country... the government is not going to disarm the public anytime soon. Trust me, we are going to have a revolution over the wealth gap loooooooooooooong before gun policy ever gets that heated.
But like I said, completely different beliefs... one side has their mind made up, usually ends in a lack of communication because it doesn't go anywhere. Welcome to Congress (both sides fit the closed minded nature though unfortunately). This is what's wrong with America... plus the aforementioned lack of education in civics and participation.

Actually I used to be of the "reasonable restrictions" mindset. But as our previous president did with gay marriage, I evolved on the subject.
After watching WA pass a stupid law making private transfers illegal and having our state attorney general push for an AWB, I've had enough. I'm done making concessions until the gun banners make some concessions for me.
Now if the Hearing Protection Act passes, I'll be a happy camper.
