The Black Panthers were "credited" with fostering the few gun laws we have.

...we need to treat gun ownership and use like we do driving a car...a privilege rather than a right...

...we still can own and use guns...we'd just have to meet some sane requirements...most countries that have gun ownership don't have a 2nd Amendments...

...to drive a car you have show capability, control of your vehicle and an understanding of the Rules of the Road...and if you can't demonstrate that well, you'll have to show need...I don't have numbers but I think cars are less hazardous than guns...

...eventually people will tire of the thousands of senselessly deaths and we'll rid ourselves of this ancient amendment...

...until then, as you walk, work, drive, travel, socialize, vacation or shop, keep you eyes peeled...
