Hmmmm, you're right and I have been completely overlooking that aspect, can't argue with that.
I have nowt against people owning a gun in America, more case of making sure they and others are safe when they use it and with that, protecting their lives. Which I'm sure is part of the constitution and if not, then it sure does add something needed perhaps. After all it can have amendments, just need to see the prohibition of alcohol to see how that can work.
We only allow people to drive a car on public land after they get a license.
They can own a car and use it on private land as much as they want without a license.
That's how most gun owners agree it should be for guns. If you want to own and shoot your gun on private land, more power to you. If you want to carry a gun on public land, you get the appropriate license (hunting or carry permit). Same as with cars.
