Liberals are clueless. They don’t understand that the 2nd Amendment was written to provide a way for citizens to protect themselves from the lawless, from invading armies, AND from an overreaching, tyrannical government. Do they really think that criminals care about gun laws? My Mom’s family is from L.A. (Lower Alabama), cotton and peanut farmers. Guns are so ingrained in the culture,and are everywhere, yet gun violence is miniscule. That was the first place I ever fired a rifle as a young boy. The difference is, these are God fearing, hard working, honest law-abiding people. Like the Bible says, murder begins in the heart. A million laws won’t change bad character.
Really? I beg to differ. It is deeply dangerous to imagine that the enemy is ignorant. The Left understands precisely the right use of the 2A. The lawless are their constituency and the government is their savior. Our guns and our willingness to use them are all that stands between them and their Utopia.
The Right to Keep and Bear Arms is a Natural Right, whose provenance is described in the Declaration of Independence.
Idiots can fulminate about "the Second Amendment" all day long, but since we were born free men and women, we have the Creator-given Right to have guns.
I'm sorry Melynda didn't learn this in all her years of schooling.
