CNNs Chris Cuomo used a tweet Thursday to suggest the Second Amendment only protected a collective right until Supreme Justice Antonin Scalia read an individual right into it.
Cuomo tweeted:
Do you remember what the 2a was created for? That there was no individual right contemplated until Scalia read it in? If you are an originalist about the constitution you have no basis for thinking you and not the state controls access. https://t.co/j5IAC3NTMZ

Notice the last sentence of Cuomos tweet, If you are an originalist about the constitution you have no basis for thinking you and not the state control access. He is saying because the Second Amendment only protects a collective right, in his opinion, then the true originalist position is to believe you only have guns if the state says so.

Well, there’s a good chance the men of the militias owned their own guns. They were not dispensed by the state.

Chris would be “collateral damage” in CW2. Along with a few others of course.
I hate to break it to this silly little man, but whenever the Constitution uses the phrase, “the people”, it is talking about he core foundation upon which the constitution is firmly planted: The individual citizen.
He is neither an originalist nor a Christian.
The Bill of Rights protects our individual, God-given rights.
Hes not dead, Jim. But, his intellect is.
I spar with some leftists on another site. One that is actually pretty smart actually posted that he though Chris Cuomo is one of the best talking heads in televised news. I kid you not.
And on that same site they are laughing at Tucker Carlson and calling him idiot, moron, etc.
The bubble is their ultimate safe space.
The Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776 expressly states individuals have the right. It is nearly identical to the US Constituion.

More like the “Evil gene.”
But yes.
1. Second Amendment doesn’t grant any rights at all. It says the Federales can’t infringe on them.
2. The right to life and thereby to self-defense and the means to defend oneself go all the way back to Federalist papers.
Really? Everything thing in the BOR is about individual rights and limiting government power except that one? Was the right of a state to have an army or militia ever in question? If not, why state the obvious?

Did you miss Michael Moore cancelling his gym membership?
It didn’t . . . then why didn’t they confiscate all the guns just after the Bill of Rights passed?
This is all you need to know about Chris Cuomo (he wants to show his gonads to 12yr old girls...):

CNNs Chris Cuomo. Hey Chris when you figure out which bathroom to use then you can move on to higher things.
The Second Amendment is way above your current pay scale.
The militia was not given special rights. It was a statement acknowledging that the militia was NOT separated from ordinary citizens which would make it effectively, a standing army.
