Reply #10: The position that people be educated enough to discuss it

[sweetheart]

Really, if our focus was making sure the public was aware enough of the federalist discussion
and the original historical context of the amendment and its drafting, then the distortions
pedalled by the nutball political extreme, would be laughed at, as well they should.

The issue is that people are so grossly ignorant, that they don't know what the second
amendment meant when it was written. That people could, were they educated, realize the
irony that a toy maker can be sued for a making a toy that kills, but the gun maker cannot
when his toy kills wrongly. If the civil courts were given the power to take criminial
weapons supply chains to court, the industry would make sure guns were not out of control,
or they would be sued to bankrutpcy.

An educated populace has many ways to approach the second, and we can all agree,
that an educated discussion is in all of our interests.
