The whole notion is ludicrous because it will never happen. There's no way the second amendment will every me repealed, so there's no point in discussing it.

This whole gun debate is stupid. The NRA nor the millions of legal, responsible gun owners are the cause of these mass shootings. Think taking way guns will stop the violence? Take a look at the middle east where mass murders are a daily event.
