It's been said before that the National Guard is NOT what the founders meant. Otherwise it would have been assembled prior to 1912.

Regulated does not mean controlled or banned. In 1780's language, it just means "armed".

I never heard a follow up but drunk or high was my guess. If she was truly lost she should have immediately stated her confusion and not moved another muscle. Maybe shine her flashlight in her own face to demonstrate some compliance and sincerity.

Little Bill was a corrupt Democrat. Perfect example.

Deifying his authority brought harsh retribution.

... the “wild west” had some of the strictest gun control laws..

The author is an ass.

Agreed

Utter BS.

Towns had ordinances about outsiders "carrying" guns into town(mostly because of drunken cowboys )Their guns were returned to them when they left...

Anyone who wanted a gun could buy and own a gun of their choice

Lucky to be alive. That hitch in her get-a-long will remind her not to be stupid for the rest of her life

Although Washington had a low opinion of the "unorganised" militas, they were instrumental in many battles that would have otherwise been lost.

Like in the movie "High Plains Drifter" when they let the bad guys out of prison, they handed them their gun belts back as they left the gates.

But not their horses....(chuckle)

The writer of this piece, might have had something worth reading, until he inserted this:
“Just like cutting taxes doesn’t increase revenue—making gun ownership unlimited doesn’t make us safer. “

This man knows not economics, and by all accounts of public information, it has been validated that gun ownership has resulted in less crime.

This man is a Statist, and not worth the kilobytes wasted to trasmit his article!
