I would give up amendment || and maybe change it a little... only citizens who are legally told they can wield a gun. It'd also be better if you had to have a liscense to have a gun. Like if someone that'd shoot someone came in and didn't have a liscense they couldn't get a gun!!

I will give up the 3rd Amendment because in the past American colonists fought the American Revolution.
Amendment 2 would be my choices because if you were only 8 years
old or 9 and 10 and you had a gun and no one told you the rules you could've shot someone with it and you would be charge with murder.
The second amendment because i don't think its fair because certain people can walk with guns around Towns and City's and other people can't
