Just take your ball and go home.
I will always stand behind the idea that the use of guns should be exceptionally controlled and closely watched. Or better yet, banned. This is not a perfect world, but we can work together to make it better.
I would have commented, but the post says

See, in this unicorn dander snorting chick’s view, as long as someone says “Ye shall not have this item”, then people will not have that item and peace will reign throughout the land. Remember how we banned drugs and the problem went away practically overnight? Some of you may be too young to remember when there used to be rapes, murders, and muggings but of course when they passed a law against those acts, everyone stopped. And it may shock you to know that in the old days, you couldn’t just leave your wallet on top of your car when you went to the mall like you can today because they hadn’t outlawed theft!
Of course, this brain-trust can’t think past deodands and magic crystals. In her less-than-capable mind she sees the problem as an object and nothing to do with humans. You see, it is the gun that transmits mind controlling waves that forces the person with it to commit crimes. She prattles on about gang members and drug dealers, both of which involve themselves in illegal activities, and yet cannot see the fault in her logic that banning something would stop it.
She’s definitely one of those people who’s hand does not direct the course of her own life and instead relies on ‘leaders’ to tell her which path to take and assumes that the rest of the world is as lost and incapable as herself when she says things like this
The Constitution is really just a bunch of words and it can be amended. Guns are not the answer and I hope the government does something about it soon.
You see, we need a small group of unelected bureaucrats and corrupt politicians to somehow guide us toward the ‘right’ path. Words are just words, intent has no meaning, and the benevolent government will lead us ‘intolerant’ fools toward the light.
Here in America, these types of people are becoming less and less of a problem and more just a nuisance. Caution must be urged though because these cretins are more than happy to claim that a few, select people have the right to control your life and eventually, those people tend to start believing they have that kind of power. Then they make laws that become more than a nuisance. So, let’s shine the bright lights of reality on these people, continue to mock and belittle their bigoted (dare I say, intolerant?) ways, and laugh at them in real life, but keep a close watch on them at the same time.
