The framers believed in laws. They were not anarchists.
And our lack of gun control and regulation is a big problem. All people who can get guns right now are not "acting like adults", so we need to limit gunownership to those who have proven that they can. Right now it is perfectly legal for a private seller to sell a gun to a convicted killer.
