Let's face the crappy facts, Americans are addicted to being pissed off, there is a lot of power and money to be gained from pissing us off, and a lot of people are really into the idea of shooting people for all sorts of reasons.
I never said they couldn't scream, but it's interesting that you'd cite a right as it is being used to attempt to curtail another.

Who said you can't talk about it? I was commenting on the appropriateness of your low effort snark.

That line is there for this very reason. For all their faults the Framers know how radical the right to own arms for the general populace was, and remains. It is virtually unheard of throughout history and in fact the opposite, the severe curtailing of the ownership of arms, is more the norm than the exception. An armed populace cannot be oppressed, hence it is a thing to be avoided.
