reinterpreting the second amendment the second amendment to the united states constitution part of the bill of rights reads a well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed the mass shooter who took the lives of so many in uvalde texas like most other mass shooters and other perpetrators of gun violence in the united states was not part of any sort of well regulated militia members of well regulated militias generally do not kill innocent people especially with military style guns designed primarily for use by well regulated militias such as the united states armed forces including the national guard and law enforcement i favor common sense gun safety legislation including limiting sale and ownership of most guns other than those used for hunting to current members and retired and honorably discharged members of the united states armed forces and law enforcement agencies let anyone who wants to purchase a gun other than a gun used primarily for hunting present proof of service or former service in the military or in law enforcement posted by john edward harris at 12 45 pm no comments email
