How many more hundreds of thousands of gun-related deaths before we put human lives before profits? How much longer before we take action and stop this madness? How many more San Bernadinos before we realize that high-powered assault weapons have no place in society, that we do not need 10 rounds per second to protect ourselves?

And please let's stop hiding behind the 2nd amendment. It's antiquated and needs to be changed to fit our world today.
It still reads: "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." Maybe we need to be more 'well-regulated' in gun control in order to secure lives rather than secure billion dollar business for manufacturers of assault weapons.

The U.S. Constitution is "a living document", designed to live and grow as the nation grows.

Even the Founding Fathers knew it might have to change with the times. Article Five of the Constitution spells it out: "The Congress, whenever two-thirds of both Houses [the House and the Senate] shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution . . ." Voila!! States also have the right to propose changes, or amendments. Three-fourths of the states have to approve the amendment for it to become law.

In the past 200 years, the Constitution has been amended 27 times. The 13th Amendment, in 1865, forever banned the practice of slavery. The 15th Amendment, in 1870, gave all citizens the right to vote, regardless of their race. And in 1933, the 21st Amendment was adopted. It repealed, or canceled, the 18th Amendment, which banned the making and selling of alcohol.

We may need amendments in the future. For example, advances in technology may change the way we communicate. Someday, we may be able to vote from our own homes, etc.

I know amending the constitution involves a process that takes time, but here is an article I came across proposing some immediate changes in order to prevent gun-related violence.

Let me know what you guys think.
Continued thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families.
