In response to the Supreme courts decision today, are you for or against the right to bear arms?

I was always for gun control and My Husband against it and has always had a hand gun and our Son

collects them.

I finally changed my opinion when I came to understand that only upright people obey laws and the criminals would still have guns.

So in line with the Constitution I agree that we all have the right to bear arms for out own protection.

What is your opinion?

    I agree that law abiding people have a right to own guns, but think we need much stronger controls and checks to keep arms out of the hands of gangs and criminals.

    The gangs in big cities are better armed than the police.

    Buying a gun should be a big, big deal, not an afternoon quick trip to the local mega store or gun shop.

    There are more controls on buying fireworks than there are on guns!

    For the right to bear arms. This case though was a federalism case, which is why I do not agree with THIS case.
