The constitution was written at a time when guns weren't as widespread and dangerous as they are now. They used bullets far less lethal than contemporary ones, there were no machine guns. It was a time when people had to protect themselves from outside aggressors (they had just overcome their colonizers in a revolution), it was an unstable time when protection was necessary as proved by the subsequent civil war.

Times have changed since then, at least this part of the consitution is severely outdated and its effects have tragic consequences nowadays. If the fathers of the constitution were alive today, they would commit suicide if they learned how bad it's become. I don't doubt they had their best intentions when they wrote that, it's just that at that time people didn't have a clue what the world would become like more than 200 years later.

It doesn't matter as Americans standby there laws.

What I'm saying is, you can say yeah it was made years ago when this was like this and that but they aren't going to change it because of that. They standby what they written.

I'm not saying i disagree or agree with it or anything.
