(11,181 posts)Your forefathers were great men and I admire them on many levels. They were also traitors to the crown, but that's a minor detail.
The constitution is a very important document, though imperfect. It required many amendments along the way and there will be many to come in the future. That's called evolution. Just as those founding fathers didn't understand that slavery was a thing of the past in a civilized society, our leaders will eventually realize the same about carrying guns around. Again, it's called evolution. We usually catch on to these new trends, it just takes a while. Took about 40 years and a civil war to pick up on the abolition of slavery. Hopefully, the next growth spurt will be less painful.
BTW, why would I be offended at you taking the advice of a bunch of dead guys? After all, you don't even know me.
