They did. There was a reason that they didn’t ‘word up’ the general statements. There are no exceptions. The right is not qualified. It is not even hinted at having limits.

That is why they made such short, clear, absolutist laws.

So, my post 36 was:

Can those currently in positions of leadership be expected to openly come out with such clarity if  the Founders themselves were reluctant to clearly word the Amendment as follows:

The Right of the People to alter or to abolish a Government and to institute new Government, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms necessary to do so shall not be infringed.

And your response was:

They did.

And my response to that is:

Excellent!!!  But I can't quite find some of the words (like "abolish" and "institute new Government" and some of the others) that "they did" clearly word in the Amendment.  I'd really like to know where they are at.  Not prenumbra or emanations; the actual words.
