8. Repeal the 2nd Amendment!
Wed Dec 2, 2015, 07:55 PM
Dec 2015

This is NOT the 1700's when this was put in the Constitution!

In the 1700's you had a rifle that needed gun powder, so it took a long time to load a gun!

Today we have AK-47 's and handguns that are able to shoot many rounds in seconds.

Other countries don't have all these mass shootings, BECAUSE their citizens aren't ALLOWED to own guns!

As soon as Australia had ONE mass shooting, they banned weapons!

In the U.S. When we have a mass shooting, the NRA ENCOURAGES people to go out and BUY MORE WEAPONS! This is insane!!!!!

America should ban ALL WEAPONS! Who needs them?
Other countries don't worry that their governments have guns and that the public doesn't!
So what's wrong with the U.S.?

Let's break the UNITED STATES up into smaller countries, those with the SECOND AMENDMENT and those who don't allow the SECOND AMENDMENT!

I'm tired of all these mass shootings, just when will they stop?
Not UNTIL the people say ENOUGH is ENOUGHT!
