Is Freedom of speech worth dying for? Is your God worth dying for? How about the right to a trial, and the need for duly sworn warrants?
How about Federalized driving licenses?
When it comes to “fighting” for something, its not about the 2nd amendment. The government does not give us a “right.” That is where all of these people are wrong.
I will defend the constitution to the death of all who desire to destroy it. P.S. or nation is not a democracy, please stop calling it that.
Where is the outrage for all the deaths in Chicago? Detroit? NYC?
A gun did not cause this massacre. Nor the one at Sandy Hook.
A mental unbalanced person caused the massacres.
Muslims have driven autos & trucks into crowds in Europe, killing many.
I have NOT heard one single peep about the vehicles causing the deaths.

Which Amendments have Americans not died for?
I believe we will have to make that choice in our lifetime. It’s not just are we willing to die, but the other aspect...much tougher for me is are we willing to kill For freedom?
I just don’t know the answer to that personally...
meh...
‘Reasonable precautions’ without sacrificing the civil liberties of any American would include keeping foreigners who adhere to a supremacist anti-Western world view out of our country. Then we’ll discuss sacrifices.
Benjamin Franklin already responded to this false premise two hundred years ago - "He who would trade freedom for safety will soon have neither."
Only read the title;

I believe that life is dangerous. You can live a safe life by hiding, avoiding any dangerous activity, and bubble-wrapping yourself.
I was against the Patriot Act. I’m against FISA. I’m against the various ways that the government monitors us. My employer is industrial and believes that we can have zero accidents. I don’t believe that.
If people understand that life is dangerous, they act carefully on their own—or they choose not to at their own peril. The Second Amendment is an acknowledgement that life is dangerous, that people are sinners, and that your safety is your responsibility.
Is Our Freedom worth fighting for? Absolutely
The disarmists need to decide whether or not “gun-control” is worth dying for ...
Is it worth dying for?
Try repealing it and watch what happens...
A large factor in the homicide declines of the last 20 years was proactive policing, including stop-and-frisk - which was a direct affront to the Constitution. Freedom means you don’t catch all the crooks and perps prior to the fact. BLM apparently is OK with the increased homicide rate as many police departments are backing away from proactive policing.
If we didn’t have the Gun Control Act of 1968 , 911 would have NEVER Happened, half the passengers would have been armed and the hijackers would have been shot!
An awful lot of people HAVE died for the 2nd Amendment, and the Constitution.
The fact is, were it not for the 2nd Amendment, America would have dissolved years ago. It’s the “wall” that protects the people from a tyrannically government.
Those who would-be tyrants cannot figure out how to get around, or over this “wall”. But the shark has been jumped...and by sheer virtue of HAVING the amendment, prevents anyone from taking the right away.
The more “shootings” they can generate, in places like schools, etc., the more chance (they figure) they’ll have to abolish it. In a perfect, Dr. Suess world, that might be true, but the rights, and the guns, are too numerous, and too embedded.
I would be like the final level of “Doom” if the government tried such a foolish endeavor.
