About what exactly?@Newtosavage what say you?
If you are asking about the "modern weapons" then yea, there should be some dialogue on what constitutes "arms" today. Or, we can be constitutional literalists and use the definition of the time which then limits us to muskets and swords and the like. I prefer the dialogue and reasonable arguments that can be explained to the typical voter.
Looking at Huntinaz's comments, the name-calling isn't helpful. That's not going to win people over to his side. But more specifically, the idea that if you don't see the need for high capacity magazines and firearms specifically designed for killing humans, then you're part of the problem.
A LOT of hunters don't see the need for high capacity magazines or firearms designed specifically to kill humans. But they know better than to speak up because they will get shouted down by the gun nuts, called names and in some instances, banned from forums because the mods don't want to hear those points of view.
What we need is reasonable conversation. If we don't sound reasonable to the growing number of people who don't use or own firearms, then we will lose what we have because we didn't do a good job of stating our case. And that's on us.
