@WanderingExistence Correct. Kids used to be given firearms as birthday and holiday gifts and there weren't mad max situations unfolding at every school or public function in the 1950s. Read more history.

@WanderingExistence When has that happened? You're making up fake situations and pretending like its genuine pretext for violating millions of people's rights. Before gun control, people could indeed possess such weapons as grenades, AND gift them to their children. Yet I've never heard of that happening, let alone a child using a grenade inappropriately.

@nuclearmusic77 The line was already drawn as "shall not be infringed." I'm not sure what's so difficult to understand- do you think law-abiding citizens magically become criminally intentioned once they possess a certain weapon? The weapons are not the problem, it's the criminals. And criminals, by their very virtue of being criminal, will not follow the very gun laws people think keeps them safe.

@shade9272 That's your take? It's so weak and pathetic the next comment literally proved it false.

@WanderingExistence Are there restrictions on children, say 3 years old, owning a chainsaw? What about a musket, matchlock or black powder rifle? There are no current [federal] laws against this. There are all manner of "hyperbolic" scenarios you could come up with, all being irrelevant to reality. Children aren't ad hoc independent creatures roaming the world of their own devices- they require parents to make them. You could argue the quality in parenting has waned dramatically in the past century, but again, this isn't a genuine pretext to deprive millions of their rights. Do you think grenades didn't exist before the 1930s? Do you think fully-automatic weapons didn't exist before then? The question I was answering in regard to age dealt with mere firearm ownership, which yes, in the 1950s kids had firearms and even brought them to school for firearms instruction classes. Again, I recommend some history, though it would seem you might be stuck in your way of thinking and aren't open to the possibility you're latched on to solving hypotheticals instead of real-world problems.
