You know, I stopped reading your email because you couldn’t even remember what you said to me. But I went ahead and finished reading.

I get people because that is exactly what it says in the the second amendment. It does not say, men or woman or what not, it says the people.

I am still saying that the Second Amendment protects my individual RKBR. Are you saying people are not individuals?

And may I ask, where do they get the Constitutional power to do anything? They apparently have the power to protect our free speech and so in BOR, I would think they would have the Constitutional power to say turn in your weapon.

"Are you saying people are not individuals?"

So you're saying the second amendment protects the right of all individuals in the U.S. -- Non-citizens. Illegal aliens. Felons. Foreign visitors. Prisoners. The insane. 3-year-olds.

I mean, they're all individuals, right? They're all "persons".

You really haven't thought this through, have you?

"And may I ask, where do they get the Constitutional power to do anything?"

Article I, Section 8. "The Congress shall have the power to .... ". Now, if you can find where is says that Congress has the power to disarm the citizens, I'd like to see it.
