Think like a supreme court justice

Individuals shouldn’t have a private right to own guns because, a gun isn’t a necessary weapon for ordinary citizens that aren’t in a militia. A lot of accidents can be caused by the ownership of a gun. In the second amendment it states that “A well regulated militia, being necessary for the security of a free state”. A militia doesn’t really exist during this modern day time, therefore a gun isn’t necessary for anyone that isn’t in a militia. The second amendment was written in 1791, and during that time the framers intention was for the security of a free state. People needed a gun during that time to protect themselves from animal attacks, native americans, and for the militia. These thing don’t exist in modern time anymore.
