We Should be More Careful Who We Give the Tool of Death

   The minimum, is to take guns out of the hands of those who shouldn't have them.
   At least, try to do that much.
   But, we will need to get away from the mentality that everyone has the right to a gun, if we are to enact national red-flag laws.
   I think of the Wild West, and of how they had similar debate. I believe the courts back then ruled that when the Second Amendment says Congress shall make no law infringing on the right to keep and bear arms, that doesn't mean guns can be in all places at all times.
   No, you can restrict their usage. And, the earlier Americans did. If you rode into Dodge City, you were required to turn your gun in, same as you were in a good lot of the cities and towns in the Wild West.
   Gun control, circa 1870.
   Guns are a limited right. The Second Amendment says, "A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
The security of the nation -- this free state -- is not at risk by taking guns from those who make threats.
   Guns are a limited right. It is the right of the people, at large, to keep and bear guns. And, you as an individual have the right to a gun -- unless you do something to restrict that right.
   Like, make a threat.
   Guns are the tools of death. That is what they are used for. If you give indication that that is too much responsibility for you, the gun should be taken away. This is not like a car. The car is an instrument of travel. Its purpose is to take someone from one location to another. As opposed to that, the gun's purpose is to kill, largely. If we are to be careful with who we give the right to drive, we should be evermore careful who we give the right to kill.
