Just above you agreed that states should not infringe on our 2nd amendment rights. -- Which is it, yes or no?

LOL! Do you know the different venues of law?

I now know you won't answer the question. -- Sad that you laugh it off.

Do you know the difference between an inalienable right to defend yourself and the right to keep and bear arms?

There is none, as most any type of property I own can be used as an arm or weapon.

Then your answer is no. Why are you so insistent that I answer your questions while you have yet to answer mine? You continually quote the same Constitutional article, but answer nothing.

Sad that you laugh it off.

Even sadder is someone who would champion an overreaching national government using the screen name tpaine.

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.

While true, it's beside the point. I was talking of a legal difference, not a physical one.

They are both 'rights', but they come from different sources of law. Not having the latter, (like in California) DOESN'T negate either right..
