We’re too stupid to understand what those words mean. That’s why we have a federal court system: to explain the meaning of all those complicated words and ideals. /S

anyone who had a good high school history class, or political science.....knows that USA is not supposed to have any gun registration, background checks, controls, licenses, permits, you name it.

a big, big part of the American revolution was fighting against King George’s attempts to force gun control regulations here

and the Constitution, the Federalist Papers and other documents of the day make very clear that the decision was taken to prohibit any such governmental infringements with the citizens’ right to keep and bear arms

They were not stupid people in 1776. They realized that guns can sometimes be involved in accidents, also occasionally in crimes. But, they feared far, far more any government that attempts to restrict, limit, regulate, license, permit, or otherwise inhibit gun ownership (or carrying)

There not being a perfect answer, the one our Founders chose to fight for, and chose to bestow to us today, was the clearly far better choice

History has proven this, look at any dictatorship (communist, nazi national socialist, or just plain old-fashioned tin pot variety...you name it), and the first thing the local Stalin/Hitler does.. is to try to force gun control (and eventual confiscation) down the throats of the formerly-free people

we need courts that will obey the constitution the judges are sworn to uphold

it is that simple
