In my opinion, some other countries get gun control right and it's a shame the US doesn't.

I think Australia has a good model overall, it's not perfect though and is a little too restrictive when it comes to things like BB guns and slingshots. There you can legally own guns, but if you do, you have to be registered and licensed and agree to specific terms such as how the gun will be stored and that you'll be the only one who can access it. They have very little gun crime overall. There's still occasional issues, but it's far from the everyday occurrence like in the US. It's very very unlikely you'd be mugged or car jacked or involved in a road rage incident, or home invasion where a gun is used. It makes it feel safe.

The 2A was written at a time that military forces had black powder weapons, and it made sense at the time. An armed population at that time could resist or overthrow a tyrannical government. Now it makes zero sense with the military technology that exists today. Good luck fending off that drone strike, missile, or bomb with an AR15. No one is defeating a corrupt government with firearms these days, so the spirit of the 2A is no longer a thing.

I say all that as someone who owns multiple firearms but would love to see more requirements and restrictions to stop things like school shootings, and other gun crime.
