There were many great replies to this article, and discussions of the Second Amendment, but it annoys me that no one stated what the Founding Fathers said: The Constitution does not GRANT rights to citizens, but are basic, pre-existing (God-given) rights that EVERY human has. Good for the Iraqi people for not being disarmed. This will help insure that the new government will be stable and that Iraq will not fall into chaos and civil war when we leave them to govern themseves. I must say, though, that I am very envious of them and wonder what our country would be like if we were allowed to excercise our God-given freedoms.
