Gun Control. Why, Again?

Ok, if you haven't been listening to the media lately, then you have missed something very important. That is, the government is trying to take away the 2nd amendment (the right to bear arms). They are trying to do this because of the several mass shootings that have happened in the past few months. A few of these shootings were the Aurora, Colorado shooting in the theater, the Sandy Hook School shooting, and a couple other small ones. What the government is putting in the media is totally untrue. They are trying to blame inanimate objects for committing these horrific crimes. Well, you know that these objects are guns and obviously have no mind of themselves. The real truth is the people behind the guns. The saying "Guns don't kill people, people kill people" is as true as "A hammer does not drive its own nails". Now it does sound like a good idea to take guns out of the equation, but that cannot work because then the only people who have them are the cops and the criminals. And, we have no way of protecting ourselves from home invasions, assaults, burglaries, and even our own government. Many of our founding fathers said that the government would try to take away the second amendment and the only way to stop them would be to use that right.
