The Second Amendment can and should be amended. It has not kept up with weapon technology. Rights can have limits, and I believe it's only a matter of time before responsible laws are put in place that don't infringe on rights.
Having a gun for protection is one thing, but owning an arsenal capable of launching a small war is another. With every suicide, accidental shooting, intentional shooting, and mass murder, more and more people are reconsidering how they feel about guns. This stuff will keep happening because what we have now isn't working, and will never work.
The mass murders will become more violent, and more people will die, because that's what has to be done to grab the headlines that these sick people seem to have such a desire for.
Things will change. The right to life trumps the right to bear arms.
