Ā @stevestults1111Ā ā I half agree with your āa locked up firearm is no good for protection,ā comment. But there are fingerprint reader + code + key lock boxes and gun safes. I have a small gun safe bolted to my nightstand and one bolted in my car. It takes all of one or two seconds to have the gun in my hand if itās ever needed. Iām sure youāre going to respond wonāt work if you are hit and fingers bloody, and you are correct. It would take an extra 15 to 30 seconds to enter the code, about the same if I needed the key, So youāre right, Iād be dead possibly. But I also frequently open the safe when I start my car or hit the sack, and just tap it closed when I get out or up. IMHO, thatās a small price to pay to keep a gun from being stolen. Which by the way, is where most guns used in crimes come from. Most common sources are theft from homes, usually by someone who knows you have unsecured weapons or finds them on entry, or from public sales like garage or flea markets.

Ā @d3bbi339Ā ā No, I donāt āknowā what the founders intent was outside of what history books and records of that time tell us. The 2a intent was to create a balance of power in the people, lest the government turn dictatorial. And you are correct, the āwell armed militiaā line is now comical given the military we have today that couldnāt have been imagined when the constitution was inked. That a bunch of citizens armed with firearms could defend against jets, tanks and attack helicopters is laughable. But your statements indicate you donāt understand my perspective at all. A gun or āassault rifleā doesnāt do anything, it just has the capability to give you a chance to survive an attempt. Iāve been robbed, held at gunpoint for four hours and the police afterwards were like āno big deal, you can file a report if you want but theyāll never catch the guy.ā No gun has ever jumped out and shot someone, people did that. Did the availability of the gun mean they used it instead of a hammer, axe or shovel? Absolutely. We are blaming the gun, and ignoring the human factor. The human factor IS THE CAUSE. And our constitution was written in pencil āļø, which means as public opinion shifts if we donāt work together to curb gun violence, we WILL face the loss of the second amendment. And then law abiding citizens will turn in their guns, and criminals will laugh.

Wowza people! Youāre forgetting a few things, Trumps arrogance is perceived as confidence, they will believe Trumps lies and propaganda. Look at Trumpās Coronavirus response, denied it, played it down, ignored medical advice, did nothing until late April. All of which allowed the virus to get a strong foothold in the USA. Other nations reacted, closed their borders as early as February, encouraged safety measures and kept their people alive and safer. The facts bear this out, prove it without question, yet when he speaks and says he fought off the virus and through his guidance the USA has the best virus response statistics in the world. AND PEOPLE BELIEVE HIM! Then we have Bidenās occasional hesitation and stutter, which he has always had, although he is confusing things more often. Meaning...
THIS DEBATE COULD GO EITHER WAY!
