Penn and Teller have a pretty sweet show called "Bullshit." They take a look at many different topics from "Being Green" to "Dolphins Delivering Babies" and look at reason, law, science, and common sense. Below is their take on the 2nd Amendment, which no one seems to know how to read in some circles, but they pretty much nail it.
P.S. When did it become so cool to throw out Constitutional Ideals? Wouldn't we hold that document up with the highest respect? Sometimes social concerns do a great job at chipping away at the freedoms America was founded on, and that all of us deserve.
What's funny is that gun control laws are often "racist" in the sense that they apply to far more black people than white people. I guess Jim Crow's spirit still hangs around for some proponents of gun control, after all, that's where the origins lie.
