(at least legally)
so guns are everywhere
lets pretend its not a "won't"
"can't" still is a pretty big factor in the matter when you try and lay out any plan for actually taking guns from americans who already have them. again, its the thing that will lead to a civil war.
its THE SECOND MOST IMPORTANT THING in our entire history behind being able to freely express yourself.
the only thing more american is freedom of speech, and our right to bear arms is a major factor in upholding that freedom as well as the rest

The problem is guns have changed. The changes produce different results. You could learn a lot from the guns.
The amendment isn't a reflection of the time we are living in. If you look at the lay of the land of those times. You had a reason for everyone to have guns before the right to them. Now your right to a gun comes before reason.
I'm not saying you should have guns or shouldn't, but you can't expect change without trying to do things differently. Just because you give an inch doesn't mean you'll lose a mile.
You gotta come up with something better than arming teachers though. That's idea is literally retarded
