American needs more guns to protect themselves from all those people with guns and a possible cuban/Russian invasion that might happen at any moment. In fact you should send your kids to school with hand guns in their back packs just in case. It's unconstitutional to say kids shouldn't be allowed to bear arms. I mean when the constitution was written kids were being sent off to war so why shouldn't they be allowed to bear arms now. Could it be that times have changed? Nahhhhhhhhhh



this!!

This is in no way a strawman argument. It's more good guys with guns, isn't it?

Children of course don't have the same freedoms or facilities to own a weapon, and nobody implied that they should. It's the same reason why nobody is implying that children should be able to drink alcohol nor that they should drive cars. They are not capable of sound decisions, as their minds are still developing. Of course, there was a time when children did bring their rifles to school, and while there were accidents it was an infinitessimally small percentage.
