The right to bear arms doesn't grant any misuse of the gun. It doesn't even grant the right of self-defense. That is a right we have regardless of the 2nd amendment. A gun is just one tool we could use to accomplish that. We could use a knife, a lawyer, or our fists. Laws regulate how we can use guns. Just like they regulate other weapons. Removing the right to own guns is just not a viable solution. Enforcing the laws we already have would be a good start. Prosecute gun murders and crimes with severe penalties and sentences. Punish those who misuse guns rather than punishing those who do not.
