I have been thinking a Lot about the under 21 deal and initially was all for the age change, however, in not finding much evidence that a legally purchased weapon by the under 21 shooter, I am having a hard time justifying stripping those folks 2a rights.
What I do find over and over is a crazy fuck of all ages given access to a weapon.
Seems to me that the fix should be applied to where the source of the most crimes: Crazy fuckers buying, crazy fuckers with access...Felons able to buy because they live somewhere that does not report to NICS...
If I missed a ton or even a qty of shooters under 21 that perchased their weapon please let me know
Problem is that 2a doesn't stipulate that a citizen must be of sound mind to own a gun. It does not mention an age requirement or suggests any limits in one's rights to bear arms. " the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"
