Madison never meant Second Amendment to allow guns of Sandy Hook shooting...

No, I believe the second amendment was to PREVENT such events.

And First Amendment was never intended to permit the press/media to become unpaid propaganda arms of the democRAT party, providing billions of dollars worth of free advertising on their behalf.

"we must concede that the conditions allowing for an armed revolution of the people have long since vanished."

He's absolutely right. No one would even think about seceding from the Union today either.

Of course, in Madison’s time the family unit was still cohesive and functional enough that family members would not have allowed access to their guns to a member of that family who was struggling psychologically or emotionally.

Aaron Burger’s central thesis, “ Regrettably or not, we must concede that the conditions allowing for an armed revolution of the people have long since vanished.” is faulty.

But, Mr. Burger’s thoughts are typical of most of America’s Jews. If commies such as the odds Burger is, force a CW II, there will be no armed citizen v. Apache helicopter style war. it will be the endless shooting of Federal gubbament employees, and such other gubbament employees the public sees as worth killing.

No technical civilization can survive such attrition for long.
