Point out where the Founders would have disagreed with me. Since they had privately organized militias and privately owned cannons and men-o-war, they seem to have figured that private people could be reasonably trusted to own ANY arm they chose and not misuse it. You may use the Constitution, the Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers or any other documentation from the period. Furthermore, people even to this day own howitzers, artillery, automatic weapons and more. Legally. YOU are untenable. Check your premises and your FACTS before running your mouth and proving yourself to be the (fill in the blank) sort of person some of us to date only SUSPECT you of being.

Your position is completely extreme and irresponsible. It only serves the liberals and socialists.

Our government will continue to keep WMDs and other mass weapons of modern war out of the hands of private citizens and hopefully out of the hands of dangerours regimes.
