@TurmericBae @krassenstein The most self-proclaimed educated and versed on the 2nd amendment always fail to notice the fact that it’s an amendment. Meaning, nothing is in stone and that laws, when antiquated and stupid, can be changed. They also always quote those lines in a bubble absent of the rest of it

Former President Obama just summed up the Gun debate in under a minute: "I think somehow — and there are a lot of historical reasons for this — gun ownership in this country became an ideological issue, and a partisan issue, in ways that it shouldn't be. It has become sort of a proxy for arguments about our culture wars, you know? Urban versus rural. Race is always an element in these issues. Issues of class and education, and so forth. Instead of just taking a very practical approach, like we do, let's say, for example, with car safety, where we say, 'All right, we got a bunch of accidents. Let's have seat belts. And let's make cars safer. And let's engineer our roads so that we prevent them. Instead of thinking about it in a very pragmatic way, we end up really arguing about identity, and emotion, and all kinds of stuff that does not have to do with keeping our children safe." I'd love to hear both sides of the political spectrum weigh in on this clip.
