Furthermore, Mr. Kilgore knows nothing of the history of the Second Amendment.

Mr. Kilgore’s article just reminded me of another reason to carry at all times - attack by a rabid, drooling, whirling-eyed Straw Dog!

“[Joni] Ernst said at the NRA and Iowa Firearms Coalition Second Amendment Rally in Searsboro, Iowa. ‘But I do believe in the right to carry, and I believe in the right to defend myself and my family — whether it’s from an intruder, or whether it’s from the government, should they decide that my rights are no longer important.’”

Go, Joni! GO! I never EVER send $ to politicians, but I HAVE sent $ to Joni. This. Woman. Kicks. Ass. She reminds me of EVERY woman I served with in the Army :)

Give Joni a shot:

Constitutional Conservatism made America GREAT.

Progressiveism made it what it is today.

And, in only a hundred years too.

If Kilgore thinks the 2nd Amendment was intended to guarantee hunting rights, he is a liar or a moron.

The only thing that leftists critiqued more than the Constitution is marriage - UNTIL gays wanted to marry.

Knowing she’s played the “I have the right to overthrow the government with my gun” meme makes that even clearer.

Bet he doesn't have any problem with Bill Ayres doing it with dynamite and roofing nails.

Well Ed, the good news is that cops and soldiers aren’t likely to be the ones enforcing FASCISM.

More likely it would be DHS, ATF, and other like minded agencies.

And the “circumstances” you suggest, would be when they have decided my 2A rights are null...then...then...”they” will be void.

“After much negotiating, she was scheduled to meet his morning with writers and editors at The Des Moines Register, but last night her people called to unilaterally cancel.”

Hope this was a good decision by Joni. The Register has moved much more to the center and has made some surprising endorsements of Republicans.
Like it or not; their endorsement can help.

Sent some. Too bad I don’t live there anymore so I can vote for her, but I’m VERY happy with one of my current senators.

BTW Kilgore, you tyrannical jerk, would you ask the same of Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Madison, Monroe, Henry, Mason, Franklin, et al?

Move to Europe and leave us alone you pig.

I think Mr. Kilgore should perhaps read up on what such liberal heroes as John F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey had to say about the Second Amendment.
