I re-read the second amendment, and I'm sorry to say the Conservatives have been right all along.
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by etherealtruth (a host of the General Discussion forum).
Text of the Second Amendment:
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, including weaponry a century hence, of such staggering magnitude and rapid rate of discharge that it will be beyond the mental faculties of we who are drafting this amendment to conceive, and therefore in utter defiance of its spirit, and that the right of bearing such arms shall extend to the interiors of grocery stores and family restaurants, and the acquisition of such arms shall be extended to gun advocate gatherings, where individuals whose hermit-like seclusion and derangement is so egregious that many in our present age would ascribe it to possession by the Devil, shall not be challenged or asked to identify themselves, irrespective of whether they wish to massacre children or wreak havoc upon society, and proponents of this amendment a century hence shall impose their attitude upon their fellows with insufferable sanctimonious staunchness, and twist the phrase 'well regulated militia' which has a specific context given we have just written it when the Revolution is still fresh in the minds of most citizens, and interpret it in a preposterously broad way and resist any appeals to moderate this amendment, arguing a neurotic and stubborn 'slippery slope' fallacy that goes against all common sense as well as the general will of the population - shall not be infringed.

To each his own I guess.
