Many states are looking for a way and reason to ban many weapons which are used primarily to kill people. I would suggest they first limit hunting with a rifle to a .22 and for small animals only. Continuing the three-shot magazine and barrel length of shotguns is necessary to lessen its use to kill humans.

            All firearms magazines should be limited to nine bullets and only loose shells may be carried on the person over the nine in the magazine. Bullet kinds would to be limited to standard hunting types.

            No 3-D ghost gun can be manufactured or owned by anyone. No parts can be added to a weapon to make it shoot faster than originally designed. No gun can be allowed to shoot without a finger pulling the trigger for each shot. Fines and imprisonment would be imposed for violations.

            To prohibit unauthorized use of a gun, every gun must be kept in a secured location or in a secured bag. In both locations a keyed gun trigger must be used. No gun that violates these rules may be kept outside a licensed facility for recreational use.

            Purchase, sale, or transfer of any guy shall be registered by the state. Failure to do so shall be a second degree misdemeanor punishable by a fine and confinement for six months in a low security facility. Allowing an unregistered person to use a gun outside of a recreational facility is subject to the above punishment. Checking time for legal registration shall be no less than one month.

            The Second Amendment does not prohibit the kind of gun or its size of magazine as the ban on Thompson Sub-machine was allowed. The safety of its citizens must be the highest priority and not the finances of the gun industry or the campaign funds of our elected officials.

        This Supreme Court has said it can overturn any established law its five members is told to do. I believe they have yet to consider abolishing the bans for yelling “fire” in a theater or possessing a Thompson submachine gun without a permit.

            Illinois just passed a law banning sales and getting a permit for existing ownership of assault rifles and limiting the size of magazines. Gun dealers and the NRA are suing to overturn the law. If the Thompson is still illegal then these new assault guns should be illegal, too.

            Have people changed their minds? Most polls indicate about three-quarters of Americans believe in limiting the type of gun and magazine size. Dealers, manufactures, organizations, and some conned people believe there should not be any ban. With that interpretation of the second amendments t I could have a M-60 machine gun and an M-80 grenade launcher for self-defense!

            All rights are limited. The first amendment has many limits to those listed rights. When the Constitution was approved 234 years ago, civilization, culture, and technology was different. This was a time of muzzle loaders and local militias as stated in the amendment.

            It is time for the courts to look at questions with common sense and an eye on the fact that times have changed since the constitution and the Bill of Rights was signed. We no longer need a gun to fight the Redman or the British while being in the militia.
