I totally understand the anger of some of these kids from the Parkland School demanding gun control but what I can’t understand is the ignorance they have about the whole political system ! First at all we are not a democracy , we are a democratic republic ! “HUGE DIFFERENCE “ .. meaning the majority can demand whatever they want , but if it violates the constitution of the United States it won’t get pass ... the constitution says “The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” In other words, the right is there already. It isn't in question ... ! Banning the AR 15 which is a semi automatic rifle will violate that right ... we can agree or disagree if we need an AR 15 to defend ourselves from criminals or government but people needs to keep on mind that almost 80% of rifles and guns out there are semi automatic with similar power than an AR 15 ... so when these kids demand the ban of the AR 15 they basically demanding the ban of most guns !! The only way they can achieve this ban is by an amendment to the constitution ! For that you need 2/3 of congress and the senate to propose it and the ratification of 3/4 of all states legislatures ... politicians may try to do it but the Supreme Court will call it unconstitutional ! All politicians know this , but it plays well in a political campaign when elections are around the corner ! These kids are being used by politicians
