I agree that gun control should not be the central discussion surrounding the Virginia Tech shootings. The two things have no bearing on each other.
On that note:
"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
It says right there that there was always supposed to be a relationship between gun ownership and regulation. In order to guarantee this certain necessity, we have established an inviable right to, in some way, have guns. The necessity referenced was a well regulated militia, not a nation of lone gunmen, loose cannons and vigilantes. If the Founders felt angry, armed mobs were necessary to the security of a Free State, they would have said so.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
