Reckless Justification of Second Amendment Rights

Sadly, after the horrific event in Uvalde, Texas, the random slaughter of 19 elementary students and two teachers, we continue to hear even stronger support among our most vocal pro guns Congressional legislators, and citizenry, for upholding one's rights for gun ownership with very minimal restrictions.

In fact, our esteemed Louisiana state legislators are, at this very moment, pushing legislation relaxing even more restrictions for carrying a weapon.
