It’s amazing how so many on the Left can’t understand the meaning of the Second Amendment; especially when our Founders wrote so much about it! Jefferson put it so well: “...when any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it...”
BTW, for those who may think they were referring to people’s right to hunt, the term “ARMS” is only used in a military sense (one does not bear arms against a deer in the woods!)

Bingo. I’ve used that fact to stammer a few anti-gun folks. They then say it referred to something else, militias, etc.

When they do that, openly question their quickness to shift the meaning. “No, you JUST SAID it was about hunting, now it about militias. 10 seconds ago you were CONVINCED it was hunting. What’s it going to mean after lunch?”

A guy left my cube red-faced over that one. Ahh, a good day that was. ;)
