There's still freedom of speech in countries with stricter gun laws. Also in my country prostitution and abortions are legal. So stricter gun laws don't always lead to other restrictions.

The difference is the 2nd Amendment is not a law, it's in the Constitution. The Constitution ain't worth nothing if it is not respected. I don't care about gun rights. I do care about the Constitution, and I very much care about the First Amendment.

  The Constitution is not set in stone - it can be amended. If the Constitution is amended in a legal way then how is it disrespectful?

    So long as it’s respected until/unless amended, I’m entirely in agreement.

      Yup - passing laws that straight up ignore the Constitution would set a really bad precedent.

      That's what I'm getting at. If we take the Constitution seriously, but want to enact real gun law reform, amending the Constitution is the solution.
