Madison never meant Second Amendment to allow guns of Sandy Hook shooting

Following the tragic shooting at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. by Adam Lanza , many Americans are wondering what exactly our Founding Fathers intended when they set the Second Amendment to paper more than 200 years ago. Surely not the killing of 20 young children and six women.

That’s the truth.

About muskets, the author wrote: “When people did die from these weapons, it was often because of lead poisoning...”

Saw a comment by an idiot arguing that the Second doesn’t apply to modern weapons, because that back then, it took 10 minutes to reload & shoot a musket.

The founding fathers knew the country might not survive the type if stupidity and ignorance liberals demonstrate with statements like this.

I'll go with the coroner's report and evidence. They found .223 wounds and casings. The report of the AR-15 in the trunk was from a reporter before the facts were verified.

George Mason might be amused at the idea that Mdison was the sole Author of the BoR and what it’s intent was.

The Second easily covers all armaments from a simple rock to a fully appointed battleship. Not to mention anything we might develop going forward.
